what is your favorite movie scene of all times?

Try to remember every movie that you've ever seen in your life. I'm sure that only a hand full stick out. There must be a reason for this. There must have been something in that movie that touched you in some way for it to have stayed stuck in your mind for all of these years.

  I have many, many favorite movies. My Family Is my very favorite movie!  I LOVE Steel Magnolias  And this is my favorite scene from it!  I could watch Fried Green Tomatoes another 10,000 times.

But  the best movie scene (IMO) of all times is from The Color Purple.  

  It's when Shug marches herself and everyone from Harpos place down to the church, singing "God is trying to tell you something", And makes peace with her father. 

So, What is YOUR favorite?

holymoly, I just watched Planes, Trains & Automobiles AGAIN last weekend and it is one of my favorite movies. That car rental scene is a great!

I love The Color Purple, too. The final scene where she looks on the horizon and sees the purple sarongs blowing and knows her sister is home. I got teary just thinking about it. LOL Also, one of the last scenes in Schindlers List where he is thinking about how many more Jewish people he could have saved if he would have sold his car/jewelry/etc.

EasilyAmused and Wags, those scenes you mentioned are two of my favorites also.

My favorite scene is Donald O'Connor singing and dancing "Make 'em Laugh" in Singing in the Rain.

You also have to love Rudy. There's a string of events that starts with the grounds crew mentor guy sternly explaining to Rudy that he needs to go back to the last practice even though he wasn't listed to dress for his last game, and then when everyone claps for him when he does go back to the last practice. And THEN when he finally does get in the game and doesn't know what the heck he's doing and then makes an actual tackle in the backfield! And his parents are going crazy and everyone's chanting his name and he gets carried off the field. I cry tears of joy every time I watch that!

oh oops. i am at work so i can't really view videos or anything like that. but yes, what a great scene!

George C. Scott....Patton.... "You don't win a war by dying for your country.....You win a war by making that other s o b die for his" !!

allison... click the link for steel magnolias. That is the Exact scene that I have posted, because it is my favorite too!

Casablanca: When Louie turns around and looks at Rick pointing the gun at him at Club American. The shock is just great. Also Rick standing at the train station in the rain reading the note that Sam gave him from Illsa. . So many great individual scenes in this movie

Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid " Who are those guys" throughout the whole movie.

Love that scene in Love Actually too!!

Steel Magnolias: when someone asks Sally Field after the funeral if she is okay and she starts yelling that she is fine and says something like "I can run from [somewhere to somewhere far away]... BUT MY DAUGHTER CAN'T. She never could!" and starts crying. Makes me cry every time.

A Few Good Men of course: "You want answers?" "I want the TRUTH!" "YOU CAN'T HANDLE THE TRUTH!" "...deep down in places you don't talk about at parties, you WANT me on that wall. You NEED me on that wall!"
