30 Unforgettable Film Scenes Where Characters Have Groundbreaking Realizations

“That word, I do not think it means what you think it means.”

Inconceivable!

I remember reading the interview with Mandy Patinkin where he explained he had just lost his father while filming this movie, and the "I want my father back, you son of a b***h" line was very raw and very much heartfelt.

A polite greeting, an introduction. Present the problem. State your strategy to solve said problem... tips for management in the workplace

Loved that movie.

I saw this movie in an original language theater here in Germany (mostly we dub movies). Audience was about half German, half English-speaking foreigners. During that scene literally every German groaned, followed by confused whispered questions from foreigners. Very funny.

Not entirely correct. It might depend where you live in Germany. When I count, I start with the thumb, but if I know that it is three, I use index, middle and ring.

Michael Fassbender-sigh.

Or had Deaf American parents. I've been fluent in ASL for over 30 years. I literally cannot hear or think "3" and not put out my thumb. Three fingers up is a 6 or a W

I know three ways to count to 3 with fingers. I don't use one more than another. It depends of how I start counting, and how far I want to go (3, 4 or 5). So I didn't catch the trick while watching the movie. I'm not really sure this is country-related: is there any doc explaining this cultural point?

Yes!!!

Greatest ad-libbed line in any film.

One of the best movie lines ever

bruce!! love this movie! my family has been renting a house down the street from where this was filmed since i was a kid, which just made me more obsessed lol... had a tradition of jumping off the famous "jaws bridge" every summer until a few years ago when two brothers drowned :( no more jumping after that. oof, that took a dark turn, sorry!

Top pic looks like his hand is in the shark's mouth.

Se7en right?

This is not the moment when he realizes what's in the box, this is when he is informed that she was pregnant and the baby is dead too.

What's in th box?

One of my favorite movies!

Still want to know how he stuck that poster back up after he'd gone into the tunnel...

I love that movie and the short story

Fuzzy britches!

I don’t think he had an “end” cell. If he did, why was there another “outer” wall ? Very strange building !

That moment when you realise will always stay with me.

YES! I am still so proud of myself. I knew the ending way before my parents got it when I was 13. My sisters were still like what? What? When the credits were rolling lol. I don't know why I'm so proud of that

A really good movie, but I knew he was dead in about 5 minutes. I can't believe people didn't realize he was a ghost from early on. His wife never looked at him, no one else saw him or talked to him. "You can't help me." It was so freaking obvious!!

I KNOWWWWWWW

Realised the twist when I saw the trailer

Very good Mr. Gordon. May I use your phone please?

I can watch her just stay still.

Never saw that one coming when I watched it.

I’ve never seen the film but I heard there’s a Starbucks cup visible in every scene.

i love this movie so much. gary oldham is that dude frfr...

In the original script, Leon and Mathilda actually were supposed to have sex. Natalie Portman's parents, very understandably, refused to have it even implied, or part of the story. They were very aware of just how sexualized young actresses were, and this would have made it far worse. Portman's parents, and later Portman herself, turned down any movie with explicit sexual content, unless that was removed.

The only problem I had with this is that it clears Mathilda. With Stansfield dead, there's no more real threat to her, so her telling the headmistress that she's going to die feels a bit lighter than it should. If Stansfield had lived, it would have introduced a real feeling of danger, and the need for her to disappear. I realize they did it for a bit of a happier ending, but I almost wish they hadn't.

My favourite film of all time

I love this movie and the book is equally great.
