In "The Deer Hunter" when Christopher Walken's character is playing Russian roulette at the end and kills himself dead cry

And of course in E.T. when he's all greyish-white and dying sad.

Schindler's List. A couple of scenes come to mind all through the liquidation of the ghetto in Krakow.

It always sort of got me of course when you see the little girl, and they have her in color, walking around.

I was watching Return of the Jedi and saw the scene where Darth Vader's mask burned in the bonfire. It took me back to the moment when i saw it on the bigscreen. I forgot how powerful that scene was to me. Is there any movie scene that can take you back to the first time you saw it?







"Obi Wan never told you what happened to your father"

"he told me enough,he told me YOU killed him!"

"No...I am your father"


lol The BEST scene EVER!

I always sort of thought the part where they're bring the Jewish people from their apartments and stuff, and the German officer picks up the little boy, and says something to him, and gives him a kiss and puts him back down. That makes me sad, too.

I think the scene where Amon Goethe (Ralph Fiennes love) is being brought on a tour of the camp in the covertible is good too. You know, the guy asks him if he has any questions, and Goethe says something like, "Why are the windows down? It's fucking freezing." It makes me giggle a little bit. redface

Oh, yeah! I just LOVE the scene in "The Bridges of Madison County" where Francesca (Meryl Streep) and Robert (Clint Eastwood) are in their respective vehicles waiting for the light to change. Francesca spots Robert but he does not see her. She is sitting next to her husband as she contemplates leaving their dispassionate marriage for Robert with whom she has fallen madly in love (and he with her) during the course of three days. Anyway, her hand grips the handle of the car as she decides her fate. Mind you, she has to make up her mind before the light changes, or Robert will be lost forever.

That is one of my favorite scenes in movies, period. I mean, the decision to either go with the status quo or follow her heart makes this scene pretty intense, in my opinion.

And to top it off, he (Robert) puts her necklace/pendant thing over his rearview mirror as she watches on from the car behind him...a beautifully subtle way of saying "no matter what you decide, you'll always be with me"...very emotionally intense scene...

Oh yeah!

Spike knows how to put those images in his movies for sure. He always has a few.

Like in "Bamboozled" when Tommy Davidson's character is putting on the blackface make up with rage anger desperation and sorrow eventually breaking down into tears, Spike really captures the conflict and contradictions of minstrelsy and put the audience in the emotional mindstate of those who felt that's what they had to do to get by.

GET BY THE EDIT.
