July 27, 201412 yr THE BEST SCENE is in 12 years a slave when his friend from New York comes and rescues him. The relief and grief at the same time AND it really happened...Really moving.
July 27, 201412 yr Author THE BEST SCENE is in 12 years a slave when his friend from New York comes and rescues him. The relief and grief at the same time AND it really happened...Really moving. Grab movie mexitucky! Too few on BGP have probably seen that movie and I recommend it to everyone. Along the same lines, Amistad, when Djimon Hounsou is telling the story of the slave ship. Powerful and tough to watch.
July 27, 201412 yr Actually, I always thought the best scene in "Jaws" was Captain Quint's monologue describing the Indianapolis. I got to meet a survivor from the USS Indianapolis once. He told me he was on that boat, and my honest reaction wasn't unlike Hooper's reaction to hearing Quint say he had been on the Indianapolis. It was un-freaking-real listening to him talk about surviving the sinking.
July 27, 201412 yr If I have to pick one scene, it's "I'll make it," by Jimmy Chitwood in Hoosiers. But, actually, you could put the last 16 or so minutes of the movie starting with the "well it's way past big speech time," on a continuous loop and I'd have a hard time getting up. Many other great scenes in the movie, but the end is better than great.
July 27, 201412 yr About anytime they cut to Bob Uecker in Major League, I'm ready to laugh. But Major League had a lot of great scenes. The first scene in Rocky II, "Rocky, do you think there's brain damage." "I don't know, I don't see any." etc. Very funny scene. "Demented, and sad, but social." scene from The Breakfast Club. Could easily pick others. Love the Mike Tyson hotel room scene in The Hangover.
July 27, 201412 yr I really enjoy the whole boot camp scene in Full Metal Jacket. The scene in Miracle when Herb is making them skate lines.... Again And of course his half time speech. Also like the beach scene in Apocalypse now "I love the smell of napalm in the morning"
July 27, 201412 yr Shawshank Redemption, the whole scene of Andy escaping with Red narrating it. Then again when Red goes to the "tree" and finds the package.
July 27, 201412 yr If you are a male and you have a pulse, it has to be the Phoebe Cates diving board scene from Fasttimes at Ridgemont high.

July 27, 201412 yr The war room scene in "Dr. Strangelove". "Gentlemen! You can't fight in here. This is the War Room!"
July 28, 201412 yr The ultimate scene of high school life in the past, present and future with a classic tune setting the stage...
