films: What movie scene gets to you?

gattaca - where vincent and anton finally confront each other in gattaca, and the following scene where they swim again.
 
Holy fuck

Irreversible (french): The scenes in the club at the beginning

is that the one where he smashes the guys head to pulp with a fire extinguisher?

that scene has haunted me for ages. i remember being at a mates place really stoned and he had it on.
 
^In Irreversible what really gets to me arent the club scenes in the beginning, nor the overhyped rape scene.....it's the ending, where we see the two lovers enjoying their lives together and the promise of a good future that we know will be wiped out in a few minutes of terror..... Thats what stayed with me long after watching the film.
....Time destroys everything.
 
A classic romantic "irony" from the Rocky series.

Rocky II, where Rocky proposes to Adrian at the zoo. In the original Rocky, this guy sarcastically suggests that he take Adrian to the zoo for their first date, because "retards like the zoo."
 
The montage toward the end of The Usual Suspects when the character who has been had FINALLY realizes he's been had, culminating, of course, with the revelation of the name of the brand of the coffee mug he just dropped, which revealed the absolute clincher in his having been played.

"And like that . . . *POOF* . . . he's gone."

<FADE TO BLACK>
 
And, of course, in the greatest robbery in recent Oscar history, both in terms of Best Actor, and worse yet, in terms of Best Picture, I bring us back to 1994, when perhaps the most emotionally uplifting scenes in the history of cinema - one that would have made Jimmy Valvano proud - served as the perfect culmination to a masterpiece that will continued to be enjoyed by millions, centuries after the travesty of a "restaurant" that is Bubba Gump FINALLY closes its doors in Times Square to make room for an updated version of ShowWorld:

"I hope I make it across the border.

I hope to see my friend and shake his hand.

I hope The Pacific is as blue as it has been in my dreams.

I hope."
 
-The scene in Saving Private Ryan when the platoon is sitting in that old church. It get real quiet and Giovanni Ribisi starts talking about his relationship with his mother. How she would work nights and he would stay up to talk to her but some nights he would pretend to be sleeping so he didn't have to. He had no reason and didn't know why he did it but just did. He tears up and everyone gets quiet again.

-The last scene of Blow when George tells his daughter that he is a fuck up.

-The last scene of Groove when that guy gives $20 to the toll bridge attendant and just drives on. Then the music comes up.

-The last scene of Dazed and Confused where they drive over the hill and Slow Ride is playing.
 
I'm talkin this all over the board but it's on Independent Film Channel so yeah, Garden State where Andrew, Sam and Mark are all standing on the crane-thing, with "Only Living Boy in New York" playing and Sam/Andrew kiss.
 
cruel intentions

opening scene i think where its playing placebo and the dudes driving his car into the city
 
Children of Men:
the scene when they stop fighting cause of the baby.... the first scene ever that has made me feel so strongly..... 5/5
 
I have to say the the russian roulette scene in the deerhunter gets me everytime
 
taken - where the main guy shoots the bad french dudes wife with no hesitation to get him to talk

no bullshit when the daughters involved.
 
Reservoir Dogs - when Tim Roth gets shot by the lady that gets car-jacked, and they're driving to the warehouse.

and

the climax at the end. jesus.

Yeh thats the one, it was difficult to make it through those opening scenes they were so chaotic and disturbing, not even so much the violence just the setting and cinematography
 
the ending schene of salam bombay (an indian movie about a young street kid on bombay). the only scene i can think of where i actually sobbed during a film. hard to find movie, but amazing.
 
I can think of two right off the bat:

--The death ride at the end of El Cid.

--Yeager walking away from the burning wreckage of his plane at the end of The Right Stuff, still chewing his Beeman's.
