Default Re: Most 'powerful' scene in a movie.

As a Scotsman the final scene of Braveheart where his friend threw the Broadsword in the air gave me a lump in my throat.

Other scenes I remember for being powerful...

I remember my dad crying at the film The Champ when the little boy was screaming at the boxer to get up.. "Champ, Champ!!!"

Any Rocky film tends to get a good reaction. How many people have not sat on the sofa punching air just as the music reaches a crescendo and Rocky fights back?

But my all time favourite powerful scene..

The opening scene of the Rock as Ed Harris dresses in his US Marine Mess Dress and you can hear the voiceover..

'Sir, you have to get us out of here...'
'I am sorry Son, we don't have clearance to come behind enemy lines'
Pause
[softly] 'They are not coming for us are they Sir?'
Then the musci kicks in with renewed gunfire.

That resonated with me.
