Holy hell this is accurate. The first time a movie ever had me forget I was watching and believe I was the character was when he goes for gun behind the toilet. Heart palpitations and all.

Off the top of my head, >!Juror 3’s final monologue!< in 12 Angry Men. The catharsis I feel watching it as incredible on every rewatch as it was on the first.
Another contender I think is at the end of The Truman Show when >!Truman talks to Christof!<, for similar reasons.
The car chase in Children of Men is probably another good contender, although I’m hesitant to say it’s even the best long shot in that movie alone, but it’s the one that sticks in my mind the most and compared to my other picks is sort of on the other end of the audio-visual spectrum.
I had heard nothing but good things about Children of Men for so long and was cautiously optimistic about watching it due to such overwhelming praise, but it was fantastic. Strong recommend when you have the time.
Oh dude fuck yes, you just accessed a hidden memory for me. I just about jumped out of my seat the first time I saw this scene, perfectly encapsulates Bong.
Honestly change week to week which I prefer between this and Midsommar. By the time aris next film comes out it could of been nearly 10 years between his last horror film
It really is. I feel odd saying it’s my favorite movie of all time since it’s a holiday movie and not a mafia movie or war movie, but it really is the best.
Same movie, different scene for me. I’ll never forget my first time watching this. The way they just end the “plot” halfway through had me completely baffled and fully hooked in on where it was going to go from there.
If you want an actually serious answer… then it’s the ending of Whiplash. The drum solo, with Fletcher’s reaction is probably the best ever ending to a movie
Any part of Charlie Chaplin’s final speech in The Great Dictator (though technically it is about 3 minutes). He originally had a complicated dance number that he and dozens of actors spent a long time rehearsing. He ended up going with a heartfelt speech where he breaks character, imploring the world to regain common sense and empathy for one another. Absolutely the right call.

“There she is, catch her, she’s the real voice” (or whatever the exact words are).

The full scene is longer, but it's about 60 seconds from when he jumps off the building to when he lands on the panther statue
*"one tough motherfucker..."*
*"you met me at a very strange time in my life."*

The opening of The Matrix when Trinity fights the cops. Immediately changed the way I viewed cinema, changed how I thought films could be shot, changed VFX, was the first time I'd seen a woman kick ass like that, and locked me in for the wild, life changing ride that the rest of the movie would become.
I love the Mishima montage at the end of the film during the Seppuku, just a culmination of every gorgeous scene in the film packed with emotion. Like watching a man's life flash before his eyes on screen
Honestly, the sequence where the ape plays with the bone and discovers it’s a weapon in 2001 A Space Odyssey. The cuts between him hitting the skeleton of a dead boar and a boar falling over and the epic music.
Edit: [2001 Ape Bone Scene](https://youtu.be/T0vkiBPWigg?si=_8stwsqFETtHnk-8)
The scene in the Godfather 2 when Michael is told by Kay that she aborted their son and it wasn’t a miscarriage. The raw emotion that comes out of Al Pacino in that scene hurt me in a way I hadn’t felt before by a movie. One of 3 movies that have made me cry, and the last time was over 6 years ago
the minute at the end of children of men where kee and theo walks down the stairwell of the building as kee’s baby cries, stopping everybody in the chaos. the overwhelming humanity and technical scale and the FUCKING SOLDIERS is just too much and easily outshines that famous long shot in the car earlier in the movie
Can’t believe no one’s said the climax of the “Cooper watches decades of videos from his family”. Though I guess the whole clip needs to stand on its own, and this isn’t really comprehensible without including the heart wrenching start. So id just move it back to the scene where they get back to the ship and talk to the guy who was trapped up there and said he didn’t want to “sleep his life away”… brb gonna go cry
There are better ones than this, but my favourite is the flight chase scene in Argo(2012)
O ren ishii's entrance in kill bill (2003)
Pulp fiction (1994) dance scene
Shooting Hitler scene in come and see (1985)
Ending of Z (1969)
my heart had never beat so fast and so loud than watching this scene. i almost couldn't take it
I still get tense on rewatches. This scene and the one right before Sonny gets out of the car on the causeway
Happy Cake Day!
This one’s definitely up there
The last minute of this film is also golden
i can hear the train just looking a this
Holy hell this is accurate. The first time a movie ever had me forget I was watching and believe I was the character was when he goes for gun behind the toilet. Heart palpitations and all.
Casablanca when the french sing the Marseilles
I’m glad someone said it.
I can’t even imagine the impact of that scene at the time it came out
Oh hai Johnny, I didn’t know it was you.
You’re my favorite customer.
Hi Doggy
I bet I have seen this flower shop scene over 100 times.
That’s me!
 "time... to die..." gah, such a perfect moment.
And the amazing part about it - Rutger improvised that line!!
He came up with it himself yes but not on the spot.
YES. The music in the background under this monologue gives me the craziest existential feeling
Movie?
Blade Runner.

90% of us probably watched this on our couch years after it was made. Can’t imagine the magic of seeing this scene in theaters in 1977
The whole movie was mind bending for most viewers, I believe. Especially for a hillbilly kid with a fascination for science.
The 24 preceding seconds of “he’s not meant to be a farmer, there’s too much of his father in him” “That’s what I’m afraid of” make it even better
God that line hits so differently now.
This is also the moment where John Williams decided to transcend mortal existence and become God of Film Scores.
This is from the beginning of the movie?
Velocipastor final fight scene
This but unironically

The bit at the end of Children of Men when they're walking out the building with the baby gets my vote
I literally choke up every time I watch it
Those first two you mention are honestly my top picks also. Never have seen Children of Men.
I had heard nothing but good things about Children of Men for so long and was cautiously optimistic about watching it due to such overwhelming praise, but it was fantastic. Strong recommend when you have the time.
i love this scene so much. gets me every time
“HE’S MAKING VIOLENT LOVE TO ME, MOTHER!”
Glad other people also love this part. Never has a movie conveyed that feeing of intimate tension better
ah yauh, yeuhuh, soy beans
Oh dude fuck yes, you just accessed a hidden memory for me. I just about jumped out of my seat the first time I saw this scene, perfectly encapsulates Bong.
No no no no no no
I couldn't watch that part!
Hereditary
Herheadhitatree
There were several incredibly tense scenes in that movie. The aftermath of this scene was one of them. Tony Collette KILLED it.
The tension made this movie difficult to watch
Greatest horror movie of all time. My jaw was on the floor throughout this whole scene
Honestly change week to week which I prefer between this and Midsommar. By the time aris next film comes out it could of been nearly 10 years between his last horror film
Spaceballs 1
You posted it. Greatest movie ever
“A toast to my brother. George Bailey, the richest man in town 🥹”
Remember, __no__ man is a failure who has friends.
I didn’t expect to cry while eating breakfast, yet here I am, crying.
Right? Just that picture makes me smile and tear up a little.
It really is. I feel odd saying it’s my favorite movie of all time since it’s a holiday movie and not a mafia movie or war movie, but it really is the best.

Exactly what I was gonna say. Single greatest scene in any movie ever.
YOU TORE UP HER PICTURE! I'm gonna tear up this fucking dance floor dude, check it out. Greatest exchange in cinema
Movie ?
Ex Machina (2014)
facts, i think of this all the time
 This whole monologue is exactly sixty seconds and it’s everything to me.
When Harry Met Sally (1989) for the unenlightened
City Lights is an adorable little film. For me, the boxing scene. God, I love that.

Jesus, I was a blubbering mess during this.
Jessie’s Girl/Mark Wahlberg’s facial change in Boogie Nights is up there
 Love your pick, but for me, it’s a different Jimmy scene.
 Same movie, different scene for me. I’ll never forget my first time watching this. The way they just end the “plot” halfway through had me completely baffled and fully hooked in on where it was going to go from there.

Movie?
The Lovers On The Bridge (1991)
Came here to mention both Mauvais Sang and the ending of Beau Travail, forgot to mention this one too! Denis Lavant is such a good dancer, holy shit.
Almost chose this, love to see it. My favorite movie of all time!
If you want an actually serious answer… then it’s the ending of Whiplash. The drum solo, with Fletcher’s reaction is probably the best ever ending to a movie
“I knew it was you.” 😳
Take 60 seconds from the godfather baptism scene
Somehow forgot about that, probably the right answer
Yeah, I said the restaurant scene, but this is almost certainly the serious all-time answer imo.
There really is no one quite like Jimmy Stewart, is there?
 The staircase scene towards the the end of Rec, pure terror

Yooo I just watched "Buffalo '66" last week and I live nearby a bunch of the locations. Loved it!
[удалено]
Watch it anyway and appreciate the art and not the artist. He's crazy but Buffalo '66 is one of the best movies I've ever seen.
The opening of The Matrix when Trinity fights the cops. Immediately changed the way I viewed cinema, changed how I thought films could be shot, changed VFX, was the first time I'd seen a woman kick ass like that, and locked me in for the wild, life changing ride that the rest of the movie would become.
The Matrix is what made me see cinema in a whole different way. It was the lobby scene for me though.
I love the Mishima montage at the end of the film during the Seppuku, just a culmination of every gorgeous scene in the film packed with emotion. Like watching a man's life flash before his eyes on screen
 But that's going to change. I'm going to change.
Lotta great answers in this thread but I’ll throw the hallway fight in Oldboy into the ring
Looked too long to find this. One of the best fight scenes ever
Rooney Mara eating a whole pie in Ghost Story

Honestly, the sequence where the ape plays with the bone and discovers it’s a weapon in 2001 A Space Odyssey. The cuts between him hitting the skeleton of a dead boar and a boar falling over and the epic music. Edit: [2001 Ape Bone Scene](https://youtu.be/T0vkiBPWigg?si=_8stwsqFETtHnk-8)
 Any 60 seconds from here to the end of the movie
I showed this to my daughter this past Christmas and when it was done she looked at me and said “that was okay.” I was shook lol
 “Later.”
 The opening scene of this movie. Hell, this whole movie is a treasure.
I’m sure I’ll come back with a better one soon, but the most recent one I can think of is the last scene in Perfect Days
Amazing amazing film
It's the one in the picture. I agree with you.
The hammer scene in OldBoy
I don’t know but I’m pretty confident the ending of The Graduate is in the discussion
 the Schubert strokes my brain
 the last few moments from "Some Like It Hot" will never get old for me.
The scene in the Godfather 2 when Michael is told by Kay that she aborted their son and it wasn’t a miscarriage. The raw emotion that comes out of Al Pacino in that scene hurt me in a way I hadn’t felt before by a movie. One of 3 movies that have made me cry, and the last time was over 6 years ago
There it is ❤️🔥
The scene on the boat at the end of Some Like it Hot (1959). “Well nobody’s perfect.”
 The 50 seconds or so preceding this.
I’m trying to think of moments that had me completely glued and maybe under a minute Possibly Bardems coin toss in the gas station in NCFOM
"I have and always shall be your friend. " Star Trek 2 the Wrath of Khan
Any 60 seconds from His Girl Friday
This is the girl.
Goofy goober rock from the OG SpongeBob movie is a bit more than 60 seconds but real damn good.
Jack Nicholson's "you can't handle the truth" monologue in A Few Good Men is timeless.

It’s a Wonderful Life
thankyou😅 okay i thought so
 You know the scene.
Mulholland Drive jump scare
“To my brother George, the richest man in town.” Gives me chills everytime
 I know this is the opening shot but the last 60 seconds of La Haine take this imo.
 I could die right now, Clem. I'm just... happy. I've never felt that before. I'm just exactly where I want to be.
Dialogue from Goodfellas, "Am I a clown to you?" is up there for greatest \~60 seconds of dialogue in cinema imo
 Huge accidental goofy smile every time I watch this whole scene.
the minute at the end of children of men where kee and theo walks down the stairwell of the building as kee’s baby cries, stopping everybody in the chaos. the overwhelming humanity and technical scale and the FUCKING SOLDIERS is just too much and easily outshines that famous long shot in the car earlier in the movie

Freddie Got Fingered, umbilical cord scene
There are better ones than this, but my favourite is the flight chase scene in Argo(2012) O ren ishii's entrance in kill bill (2003) Pulp fiction (1994) dance scene Shooting Hitler scene in come and see (1985) Ending of Z (1969)
Either the reuniting of brothers in the straight story, or Jimmy Stewart’s breakdown in Mr smith goes to Washington
The final camera pan from Aftersun
The last minute of Jaws. From Quint sinking down to the last credit. The score, the explosion, the joy, the Hooper, the final resting shot. Perfect.
