Pulp Fiction... Uma Thurman with black wig dancing in the competition with John Travolta.

Casablanca - my all time favourite film.

The last scene:

Beats everything else - hands down.

Yy to the D-day landings in Saving Private Ryan. I just sat there in the cinema with my jaw on the floor.

Little Miss Sunshine - the dance at the end...

Withnail & I - "get in the back of the van!"

From the films I've seen this year: Kingsman, the church scene Shock Colin Firth kicks a huge amount of arse and is so believably devastated afterwards. Mark Strong's reaction is so subtle and real, it's beautifully done

Rubbish, mawkish, sentimental tripe I know but in The Notebook when he is reading to her and she comes back to him for all of a minute.

Brokeback Mountain, the shirt inside a shirt.

Billy Elliot, saying goodbye to his family especially his granny.

PoisonPension · 28/03/2015 23:29

"A real fight" Briget Jones.

Dancergirl · 28/03/2015 23:33

Kramer v Kramer - that beautiful scene with no dialogue of Billy and the dad having breakfast together. They've totally adapted to being a cosy little twosome and the scene depicts that perfectly.

ZingDramaQueenOfSheeba · 28/03/2015 23:36

About a boy - after speeding behind the ambulance Hugh Grant gets out of his car saying "I always wanted to do that" Grin

Moulin Rouge - Roxanne

Strictly Balroom - at the end when the music stops and the dad stands up and starts clapping and others join in - lump in your throat

All the president's men - scene in the Library of Congress with the camera pulling back and back and back to make an abstract pattern as Woodward and Bernstein go through the records of what books White House staff borrowed

Incredibly, Titanic - in the middle of the load of shite overwhelming noisy shouting and bawoosh water scenes, when the camera pulls back and back and back to show that this huge ship is a tiny dot in an infinite ocean and their chances of rescue are and always were rationally nil.

Topsy Turvy rehearsal scene.

Das Schreckliche Madchen (sorry too lazy to check spelling) - the final scene where it all seems like they are going to hug and make up with her receiving an award, and she realises they are using her and goes batshit.

Capricorn One with OJ going mad with thirst and the helicopter.

BikeRunSki · 28/03/2015 23:52

Terns of Endearment, the scene where Debra Winger says goodbye to her children from her hospital bed.

Love Actually - everything with Jamie and Aurelia -in the car, in the lake, when Jamie flies over to her village and gets paraded round the streets.

Gregory's Girl - at the end when John Gordon Sinclair and Claire Grogan are lying in the park at dusk. Ah to be that young and in love.

ZingDramaQueenOfSheeba · 29/03/2015 00:04

ah that reminded me of the very last scene of Notting Hill, in the park. just bliss. really lovely

Capa's jump from the spaceship to the bomb in Sunshine. Stunning.

VinoTime · 29/03/2015 00:25

The Wolf of Wall Street - scene and the lemmon scene. I was in knots.

Good Will Hunting - .

FreudiansSlipper · 29/03/2015 00:52

Some Like it Hot. When you first see Marilyn Monroe walking along the platform she is just mesmerizing

Goodfellas Karen and Henry walking through the kitchens up into the club I feel excited for Karen
