4. You can go wrong with the end of 'An Officer and a Gentleman'
5.Iris and Roy Hobbs 'The Natural' young love lost and regained.
A couple of my choices might throw some of you, but there they are.
In the Natural, which you cite, the moment that gets me is where Iris is in the stands at the ball game and stands up so Roy can see her, hit by the ray of sunlight.
Wow, that was a great bit of cinematography.
Alien: When the alien comes out of that guys chest while they were having dinner.
(Sorry, long day, and there are hours more work to go).
The spaghetti scene in “Lady and the Tramp.”
When Mel Gibson and Renee Russo’s character were talking about The Three Stooges as forplay right befor getting freaky.
I prefer to watch horror flicks on Valentine’s Day.
Rhett Butler carrying Scarlett O’Hara up the staircase in “Gone With The Wind”. *sigh*.
“Airport scene Rick and Elsa ‘Casablanca’”
Rick is really dumping her.
The last scene of the Graduate.
The final scene of Fight Club where “Jack” and Marla hold hands while watching the city implode.
The ending of “An Officer and a Gentlemen” is a distant 2nd.

****Sniff****
this might seem a little macabre, but i think the ending of A Place in the Sun where the Montgomery Cliff character is thinking of the Elizabeth Taylor character as he is about to be executed... it’s so sad, but you see that he really loves her...
LOL!
The scene in Braveheart when he sees Mirren right before Mel is beheaded.
The Way We Were
1. when Robert Redford is out on the boat with his friend and they are talking about the best holidays in their lives they can remember, and he remembers Barbra Steisand..
2. and when he meets her again at the end of the movie and she has married and moved on with her life...
The final scene from “A Boy and His Dog”.
