favorite scene
 
it is often asked, "whats your favorite film then" . I suppose we all have our favored films, I recently picked up a copy of "On the Waterfront" a great movie that I had not seen in many years. I watched once again as Marlon sat in the back of the car with his brother and proclaimed "I could have been a contender", great stuff.

This got me thinking what is my favorite scene in a movie. :hmmm: after all a good one good scene can and often does make the film work.

for this ole softee it has to be (don't laugh) Julia Roberts playing opposite Hugh Grant in "Nottinghill" . the scene where she walks into his shop and says "I'm just a girl, asking a boy to love her". :yeah: I love this scene.

HEAT - the running gun battle with the police.

24, 1st episode of season 2 - in an attempt to quickly establish his story for an undercover operation, Jack Bauer kills a federal witness in cold blood, infront of his shocked boss and after carefully examining the head and neck calmly states "I'm gonna need a hacksaw. "

Both of the walking scenes in Shaun of the Dead. When you think that they were all done in one shot, it's amazing.

The start in Saving Private Ryan the moment they are in the boat heading to the beach to making their way to cover. Still gives me goose bumps whenever I watch that part.
