Any movie, any actor, any moment.
I picked Marlon Brando in "Last Tango in Paris".
Hands down, some of the best acting I've ever seen.

Kathy Bates in Misery.
Al Pacino in The Godfather movies & Scarface.
As far as young actors, Haley Joel Osment in Pay It Forward & The Sixth Sense. Both powerful performances.

The Champ, and Ricky Shroder. When he knew that his father had died after fighting in the ring and he didn't want to accept it. That scene with him as a child being held back crying and reaching out for his fathers lifeless body laying on the table as others looked on helplessly. That scene always makes me cry. I couldn't believe that someone so young could pull that off the way he did. He made it so vividly real that I almost forget that it's a movie at that point. Great acting. Really great! He's not as good now, but he acted the hell out of that part back then.

I typically hate child actors, so when I see one that's actually convincing it's more impressive to me than any adult actor. So, I choose the young actress playing the title character in the French movie "Ponette" (throughout the whole movie; no one moment in particular). Incredible!

Cuba Gooding Jr. in Radio...that's a hard role and he did well with it!
And of course Johnny Depp is an awesome actor!

"I waited for you for 7 years"
"It wasn't over for me"
The Notebook
Fills me with a rush of love every time
Also from The Notebook, when they're older & Ally 'comes back', then 'goes away' again. They show Duke/Noah (James Garner)'s face & it's so full of pain & his chin quivvers ever so slightly. Breaks my heart into a million pieces every time.
