as a huge stanley kubrick fan, i'd put the treatment scene in clockwork orange on the list, and certainly the entire finale-nicholson-goes-insane scene from the shining. de niro shooing the pimp in taxi driver is pretty nuts, too. but there are far too many powerful scenes in cinema history to list.

Rudy: When he tackles the guy in the final scene and they show his father, his brother, his freind and the groundskeeper guy and they're all proud of him. Made me
![]() Stand By Me When Chris stands his ground and Ace was about to kill him, but Gordie shoots the gun off. The War When Kevin Costner's character gives the cotton candy to those asshole kids, when his son(Elijah Wood) just got beat up by them. Of Mice and Men When he shoots his brother. That was tough to watch. |

just thought-
Shawshank Redemption - where they cripple the guy who had been rapping andy The Great Escape - after they have all been recaptured & the germans tell them to stretch their legs, then kill them all. Escape to Victory - apart from Pele's overhead kick, the scene where they can escape at half time but choose to play on as they can win the game is good. Stand By Me - When Chris stands his ground and Ace was about to kill him, but Gordie shoots the gun off. (thanks LC) The Towering Inferno - when Steve McQueen drops the fireman from the lift to then realise he landed safely Cool Hand Luke - Paul Newmans performance was excellent and i love the way that in the end he still had that daft grin on his face. |

Ladder 49: The funeral in the end
3: From the beginning of the 2001 Daytona 500 up until the end of the movie Those 2 and 1 other that I can't think of at the moment (might of been the Armageddon moment mentioned by The Answer) are the only movies that have ever come close to bringing a tear to my eye. |

Shawshank the Andy "Jesus Christ Pose" in the rain after he escapes is pretty powerful. It's my wallpaper at work.
Sappy yet powerful, the moving penny scene in "Ghost". The Russian Roulette Scene when they are all captured in "The Deer Hunter". Mystic River, when Senn Penn's Character (Jimmy) shoots Tim Robbins (Dave) thinking he killed his daughter. Actually the last 15-20 minutes of the movie blew my fucking mind. The torture scene in "The Passion of the Christ". Last edited by The Gooch; 03-22-2005 at 10:42 AM. |

I'm surprised nobody has mentioned Godfather 3's ending. Even though it was kinda shitty watching Michael Corleone die and knowing that it was officially over must've had some kind of impact when it first came out.

Million Dollar Baby- Same as what was said before. Star Wars ESB- "Luke i am your fater!" Raging Bull- DeNiro Hitting the wall "I'm not an animal!" The English Patient- Don't know the names but when, the guy is carrying the girl from the plane crash, and she says, she has always loved him. Saving Private Ryan- Tom Hanks tells Matt Damon "Earn this.". That's all for now |
