If you've got a mind to, post any scenes that you think should have been in the top ten.
As for me, I would've put in the scene where the bar patrons in 'Casablanca' sing La Marseillaise. But I guess that movie - like me - is too old.
The Dirty Dozen: Jim Brown throwing the grenades in the bunker air shafts
Tuco running in circles in the graveyard looking for gold while the ‘Ecstasy of Gold’ is playing.
Too many of these lists suffer from the “recency effect”. And the “load more” button, which basically means “load more ads”
Any list which includes “American Beauty” is suspect unless it is a list of worsts.
“The Best Years Of Our Lives”
Colonel Taylor finding the ruined Statue of Liberty on the beach.
The home run scene at the end of “The Natural”
Oddball in the train yard. - Kelly’s Hero’s.
Get some - Full Metal Jacket.
Sull Aria - Shawshank Redemption.
Opening Scene - Dr. Zhivago.
Casablanca — “Herr Strasser has been shot. Round up the usual suspects.”
1. Florida Project: When Moonee, suddenly, understands that she'll have to be separated from her mother, she runs away to the neighboring motel to say goodbye to her friend Jancey. With Moonee sobbing in the doorway and barely able to speak through her tears, Jancey then grabs Moonee's hand for a getaway.
2. Room: The whole "Jack's escape form the shed scene."
3. A Star is Born: The final scene in which Lady Gaga sings the powerful ballad "I'll Never Love Again".

Like Man,
That’s Your Opinion!”
