In the movie The Sleeping Dictionary, with Jessica Alba and Hugh Dancy, the following scene:
John Truscott: [after a bad day] Sorry about this afternoon. I should've stopped her sooner. Selima... you had other lovers before me, didn't you? Did you and they have what we have?
Selima: Yes. They were men like you.
John Truscott: [He is a little surprised] I thought we had something special.
Selima: No. We f--ck. That's all.
[She gets up and walks out of the room, and he goes after her]
John Truscott: Wait! You're angry. You're not telling the truth.
Selima: I'm angry! That's why I'm telling the truth! Half my blood is English. That is more that your king and queen, but for you that is not good enough. So Iban I'll be. Rule me if you must, but nothing else.
[Sits on the bed and opens her legs]
Selima: Go ahead. Do your sex. Don't mind me.
[Imitates Cecil]
Selima: Hands higher! That's it! Perfect.

Well, it isn't my favorite movie but it is a very good movie. It is the scene in "Life as a House" when Hayden Christensen's character is told by his father that his father is dying, and then it just continues throughout the end of the movie. I relate to it mostly because my dad and I have been separated (though not like they are) and then I know my dad is dying (though a bit slower) of heart problems.

One of my all time favourite films is Parenthood with Steve martin. There are so many things in that film I can relate to, and right at the end when all the families are together awaiting the birth of a child it is so moving. The family as a whole was very dis functional yet at the end the sheer bond between them was very intense. *sniff sniff*
One of my other favourites is Henry......... starring Harrison Ford.
I tend to cry most of the way through that film. The way Harry depicts learning how to walk, talk, eat and live again is so like my ex father in law after he had a brain hemorrhage. The mannerisms are identical and it just brings back so many memories of how we almost lost him, and how he got himself back again!!

Near the end of The Lord of the Rings: Return of the King... Where everyone bows to the Hobbits. It was just an awesome and well done scene.

In Vertigo, where the viewer first sees Judy redone as Medeleine against the light from the neon sign. It's a truly amazing scene.

In City of Angels, in the very begining, he goes to the hospital to take the little girl (she looks about 5 or 6) and as they are walking away, she asks him who is going to take care of her Mom. As a mom, that is the most moving scene I have ever seen.

In the movie Ode to Billy Joe, when Bobbie Lee encourages Billy Joe that everything will be alright, and he pulls his hand away...You can just sense the hurt in both of theirs eyes. The whole movie is a heartbreak!

This is not really a movie, but in the TV show "Falcon Beach,"
I feel emotional when Tonya's friend is like, basically, drowning, the guy saves her and Tonya feels bad and the guy invites her to his house so she has someplace to sleep and finds out ways to help her.

In Kramer vs. Kramer when Dustin Hoffman is in the kitchen trying to make breakfast for his son and everything goes wrong.
The emotion of his wife leaving the family hits at this moment and it is one of the most poignant moments in film.
