Favourite film scene

[Captain Howdy]

I’m sure this has been done before but I’m shite at the search function so apologies in advance,  been watching a few films lately and I’m one who will watch a scene over and again. Two that I watch on a regular basis are the opening scene of “Inglorious basterds ” with the nazi and the farmer ( I actually think this is the best movie scene I've ever seen) and the petrol station scene in “no country for old men” any others……friendo 

[Simbo]

Blimey…..there’s loads.

 

First one off the top of my head is the shootout scene in Heat

[Mook]

 

 

 

[Bobby Hundreds]

Dinner scene in Beetlejuice.

[Simbo]

Also special mention to the scene in Bladerunner 2049 where Kay drowns Luv.

 

That was incredible to watch in the cinema.

Every group meeting scene in One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest, they are masterpieces of pacing & tension

 

The Godfather Part II when Vito goes back to Italy & slashes the fat cunt who killed his Mum.

 

The Godfather Part II when Vito kills the Blackhand, the whole build up to it is phenomenal.

[Bobby Hundreds]

The scene in the thing where they test the blood.

 

The scene in big lebowski when he etches the notepad expecting to see a phone number written down  but its just a sketch of a dude with a hard on.

 

De Niro bar scene in good fellas when the camera pans in and sunshine of your love is playing.

 

There's literally dozens of great scenes in cinema history... dozens!

[Babb'sBurstNad]

All these scenes

 

 

"His momma name him Clay, I'mma call him Clay" and "Hey, it's Kunta Kinte" always get me.

[Chip Butty]

The Dong Show scene, Debbie Does Dallas.

I saw that in the cinema- my ears are still ringing...

 

This seemed impossibly, ridiculously cool at the time-

 

 

I'm not sure if it counts as a scene as they're both multiple takes over 20 minutes or more, but both the Helm's Deep and Rohirrim charge in LotR are sensational. Bernard Hill setting it up would probably be closest to the original idea, very stirring-

 

 

I also like the Full Metal Jacket opening scene- I'd just joined the OTC (university TA) and shat myself...

 

 

[Pete]

 

 

 

For starters. 

[YorkshireRed]

There’s loads, of course, but one that immediately sprang to mind.

 

The Russian Roulette scene in The Dear Hunter. 
 

Another…

 

The ‘dentist’ scene in Marathon Man. 
 

And…

 

Closing scene in Casablanca. 

[Mudface]

On a romatic note, this is beautiful-

 

 

[YorkshireRed]

Pacino’s team talk in Any Given Sunday.
