The Potempkin- Baby carriage down the Odessa Steps (Ok, I know it's obscure). But it was one of those "Ah ha!" moments when I saw how you could literally wrap an entire movie into one bit of film.

I wonder how many got suckered into accepting Communism because of that one scene?

I agree,
as a bit of propaganda, that scene is brilliant.

Even the "Pelican in Her Piety" was used for maximum effect. (Was it on the carriage or on the mother...can't recall)
