Actually my favourite moment in “The Natural” was the first home run Hobbs hits as a New York Knight (when he knocks the cover off the ball as per the legendary Wilford Brimley’s instructions).

Utterly awesome scene.

I’d add the nighttime defense of the compound in Benghazi from “13 Hours”

and the final attack in Zulu

Any actress would have killed for the backlit hat

Or

“You know, I think we each have two libes: the life we learn with and the life we live with after that.”

I can watch that movie all day long
