Favourite Scene from A Movie........?

Question

What's the bit in a film that makes the hairs stand up on the back of your neck? or you just love to bits.....?

( Like in Psycho 1960, When Girl is on the Run, stops at the Traffic Lights and her Boss is Walking across the Road!)
Brilliant!!

Answer 1

Another Hitchcock scene: when James Stewart waits for the remodelled Kim Novak in Vertigo. She has had her hair dyed blonde, to resemble the girl he once loved (and who is actually the same person.)
She walks down a shabby hotel corridor and he re-finds his great love.....the music is incredible and the camera goes crazy and circles the lovers as they kiss, the scenery changes behind them......this is cinema magic!

Answer 2

the shoot out scene from the good the bad and the ugly. The entire scene takes over 6 minutes and basically no action takes place. Still the director knew perfectly how to build up the suspence by flashing from one pair of eyes to the other. One revolver to the other and. one pair of hands to the other. In the end you don't even clearly see the shot you just hear a bang and a few seconds later the bad guy falls to the ground. I think not many directors are capable of filling a 6 minute scene with nothing at all and still make great cinema.

Answer 3

The bicylist walking past the car in The Sixth Sense while the little hero is talking to his mother. In the same movie, when the wedding ring rolls across the floor.

For a different reason - When Victor Lazlo electrifies the crowd by leading the occupied French in their national anthem to drown our the Nazis singing their national anthem in Casablance

Psycho 1960 - THE SHOWER SCENE

Angels With Dirt Faces also a different reason- Rocky being led to the electric chair while the kids listen to the execution on the radio.

Hello,
Millions of people all over the world are affected by hair loss, and it's not only the males that suffer this condition as even females are affected by this problem. What's sad is that many of the individuals affected by such a condition end up just accepting what is happening to their hair due to lack of information or options.

Answer 5

I've got tons. These are the scenes in cinematic history you should not miss:

1. When Keanu and Sandy floor the accelerator and the bus incredibly leaps the freeway gap in Speed. The way how the music builds up and the tension rises as you see the passengers bracing themselves, then the music just stops and the bus just seems to suspend in space and time is jaw-dropping suspense at its best.

2. Another leap of faith is in Lethal Weapon 4. When Gibson and Glover are chasing the baddies on the highway and they are forced onto a ramp which launches them into the side of an office building is hilarious. Their helpless screams as they careen out the other side narrowly missing the window cleaners is priceless.

3. Yet another jump is the one Willis does in Die Hard. You'd have to have guts to leap off a skyscraper with just a firehose for your bungee cord.

4. When Lightning and Sally go for a playful drive in Cars. Very cute, very romantic, very beautiful.

5. When childhood buddies Simba and Nala reunite as adults in the Lion King. The scene where Nala blatantly nuzzles a suprised Simba (look at his dinner-plate eyes at this part) and whispers "I missed you, Simba" and he slowly replies "I missed you too", as well as the pin-me-pin-you game which takes on a totally different meaning now that they're grown up just warms my heart. More than just best friends...

Have fun checking out these awesome movies!

Answer 6

2 scenes in "Akira Kirosawa's Dreams" always get me. In the first segment, a little boy watches a group of foxes *humans in kabuki make up and clothes* dancing, even though he knows it is forbidden for humans to watch the fox dance. He is discovered and in fear, the little boy runs away home. When he gets there, his mother, looking very sad, meets him at the door and says "The foxes were here." Then she hands him a knife and says "You know what you have to do." And that's the end of that segment. Creepy!!!!

The other scene in "Dreams" shows a Japanese general who was the only one of his men who survived a brutal battle during WWII. One night, he hears these spooky noises coming from a covered bridge. Suddenly, the ghosts of all those soldiers file out of the bridge and implore the general for instructions *they didn't know they were all dead and thought the war was still going on"!

Answer 7

Scarlett O Hara in Gone With the Wind as she walked through the hundreds of wounded and dying men waiting for treatment and she could not take it refusing to act as a nurse. That terrible Civil War between the states was for me the summing up of the utter futility of war,although that war did bring a nation together in the end

Answer 8

The 'Sorry John, it's time at the bar' / Don't Stop Me Now - Zombie beating to Queen scene in Shaun of the Dead, classic! Oh and when Brad Pitt get hits by the cars in Meet Joe Black is also a hilarious high point...

Answer 9

The Railway Children - when Bobby sees her dad coming out of the smoke on the platform - at the end. of the film. Always puts a lump in my throat.

Alien - the bit when the alien pops out of John Hurts stomach - makes me jump everytime.

Singing in the Rain - Gene Kelly - best dance routine ever.

Answer 10

1. In Lock, stock and two smoking barrels when he says 'The drugs, the money, its all been replaced by dead bodies' - so unexpected, the first time I saw it i lauged myself off the sofa.

2. In Natural Born Killers, when Juliette Lewis is dancing on top of the car and 'Sweet Jane' is played in the backgroung.

3. In Empire Records, when Warren laughs his *** off after the line... 'Jane... have you compared the number of teenage Rex Manning fans with the incidence of homosexuality amongst teenage males'

If I think of anymore I will return. Sorry these bits aren't more precisely described, I suck at that.
