Someone Asked “What Is The Greatest Single Movie Scene Ever Filmed?” And 29 Shared Their Opinions

I'm not ashamed to admit I cried like a baby

When "Up" was first released, I watched it in the theatre with my boyfriend. When this scene came up, I had the biggest lump in my throat, and tears were streaming down my face. As we were in a public place, I tried very hard to not make any noise as I sobbed. I told my boyfriend that I wanted us to grow old together. Little did I know that we would break up almost 10 years later. It still hurts.

Did anyone else tear up a little just reading that?

Gets me every time

I ugly cried with my kids right next to me

I seem to recall a lot of veterans saying that that scene was exceedingly realistic.

My Grandpa was a Normandy veteran. My hero, I miss him.

Watched it with my now ex who served and was medically discharged due to his injuries. He couldn’t make it through the scene. He said the sounds were the worst part for him.

WOW! Thank you for sharing. RIP Uncle and Thank You So Very Much For Your Service.

I saw this movie when it came out. I remember several older men leaving the theatre after that scene, weeping.

My name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father. Prepare to die.

Carey Elwes (Wesley) wrote a book about his experiences making the film, "As You Wish". It details just how much work went into that scene & it's a great read.

They practiced a TON to do that scene... one of the last ones to be filmed. Amazing

I want my father back you sonofa b**h

The score took it from great to fantastic

This movie gets me every time and I can watch it over and over.

Brings a tear to my eye every time.

Two interesting facts: they actually added that last bit in later and were worried it would be too much and they should stick with the ambiguous but hopeful ending of Red getting on the bus, but of course people loved it! The other is that the director said he was surprised by how popular the movie was with women, despite having no female characters at all other than a couple of minor background roles. He added that it was clear enough women liked the themes of friendship,

i don't know why this film isn't ranked higher on best film lists...

Yes!! One of my favorite movies.I don't know why but I especially love the scene when Red is reading the letter from Andy.

“Objects in Mirror Are Closer Than They Appear”

I watched this movie for the first time recently. I had seen the animatronics and knew what to expect but I was still SHOOK when I saw the dinosaurs!!!!!

Definitely a cure for constipation!

I'ma Little late to this post, but for all you cat lovers out there( me included) here: https://youtu.be/W85oD8FEF78

Maybe it's the power trying to come back on ..

When I was young we had black and white tv then color. But being color blind in one eye I only see shades of black and white really. The other eye gets color. At dusk and dawn unless I concentrate on say a tree or house and what the color is of it I can't see color in those moments. So watching this I just was like it's a black and white movie. Then the color comes in and it was flabbergasting to my brain. I still can't explain that single moment but I never realized the color tv was in color. Like I knew my colors and crayons and toys but that as a kid of like 7-8 it smashed me. It wasn't till about 8-9 that the eye doctor realized I didn't see color from my left eye. Hope this makes sense.

When my children, and then grandchildren, saw this for the first time, I told them that previously they would not have had coloured movies and to imagine how the audience felt, seeing that for the first time. They must have been blown away.

I loved this film so much as a child I told Father Christmas that my name was Dorothy. My three imaginary friends were "Lion, Witch and Dorothy' when I was little as well. Oh this movie is a dream for small children. So so beautiful.

Back in the 1950’s, this film was shown on TV every Thanksgiving. My family got their first TV in 1951(black and white) and I watched the film every year in my childhood as I loved the story and the film. I had no idea it was a color film. My family finally got a color TV in the late 60’s, long after I had moved out. Fast forward to the mid-1980’s when the film had been remastered and re-released to theaters. My daughter was 7 or 8 and I so wanted to show her this wonderful film I had enjoyed in my childhood. Utter shock and surprise for me when Dorothy stepped out of the house in color filmed Oz. My jaw dropped and I gasped in surprise. Loved the film even more. My daughter is grown with her own child and still loves the film too.

Touching! ❤️

In Forrest Gump, the scene that affected me the most was when Jenny was throwing the rocks at her old childhood home and Forrest states, "Sometimes there just aren't enough rocks." Me and my childhood in a nutshell! My second favorite one was the one where he meets his son.

So many good scenes in Forrest Gump...my favorite is when Forrest and Lt Dan are on the shrimpin' boat, Lt Dan is on top of the mast telling Forrest which way to go. The way he says "that's where we'll find shrimp m'boy....that's where we'll find them." It wasn't just shrimp he wanted to find.

Jenny was the villain. Understandable, but still, she she treated a vulnerable man like s**t

I cry every.damn.time

So touching! ❤️ ❤️
