Someone Asked “What Is The Greatest Single Movie Scene Ever Filmed?” And 29 Shared Their Opinions Beach scene is Saving Private Ryan

samgamgeerules added:

My uncle, now gone, asked me to see this with him. He served in WWII, and was one of the men landing on Omaha Beach. The first bullet, he took my hand. By the 3rd, he was squeezing it so hard I thought every bone was going to break. By the 5th bullet, a tear down his cheek. By the 10th he was openly weeping. This man who loved and laughed hard, but never ever cried. I knew he was flashing back, so I simply rested my other hand on his arm. When the full scene ended, he whispered in my ear "It's like they looked inside my brain and put my memories up there." That scene was literally that authentic. My uncle was the only one of his entire platoon that made it off the beach. Miraculously no outward injuries save a few scratches. The mental and emotional injuries devastated him to his last breath.

I never noticed until recently but there is no music whatsoever during that scene. 99.9% of films would force in a score to up the tension or pop in a few stingers to make sure the audience is perked up. Nope, not the JP paddock scene. The rain served as the score and the scene was 1000x better without background music.

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.

Someone Asked “What Is The Greatest Single Movie Scene Ever Filmed?” And 29 Shared Their Opinions For me its the scene where Forest Gump meets his son. I love that movie. I was a 90s kid and for some reason Gump taught me a lot about the world I didn't understand. He was like this slow witted observer of all the biggest events that changed American history from the 50s through the 80s. All the time we see him as stumbling through life getting constantly lucky, but always driven by his love of friends and family, and Jenny. It never even occurred that he might be self aware. Then in the final act he finds Jenny in her apartment and she tells him they have a son together.

"Is he...like me?"

The realization that he understood his place in the world the entire time, and still managed to be the person he is, it wrecked me. That film is deeply sentimental for me for other reasons but when I think about the first time I saw that scene and how deeply it affected me, I haven't had such an emotional experience from many other scenes. It won best picture that year for a reason. It really is a fantastic bit of story telling.

Having started as a content creator that made articles for Bored Panda from scratch I climbed my way up to being and editor and then had team lead responsibilities added as well. So it was a pretty natural transition from writing articles and titles as well as preparing the visual part for the articles to making sure others are doing those same tasks as I did before well, answering their questions and guiding them when needed. Eventually I realized editing gives me the most enjoyment and I'm focusing only on that right now.

If anyone hasn't seen the Tony Jaa movie "The Protector", it has an amazing fight scene that's all done in one take with one camera, as he's fighting his way up the interior of a building. Sooo many great fight scenes in that movie, and they get increasingly more brutal from start to finish, since he starts out just trying to defend himself without causing extensive injury to his assailants, but, as things progress, he starts to DESTROY any bad guy who gets in his way (most notably in the final 2 fight scenes). Probably my favorite martial arts movie of all time.

"The Exorcist." The scene where the priest arrives to the house to perform the exorcism is shot perfectly. It's haunting and sets up the mood perfectly. I feel that shot is what's lacking in (most) modern horror movies. I can't help but think a modern film would feel the need to add "something spooky," a jump scare, or some CGI spirit lurking behind the priest because a modern audience need attention EVERY TEN MINUTES or they're bored. But that ONE SCENE is more frightening than ANYTHING I've seen in modern cinema or perhaps in any horror film. Brilliant!!

The movie "Life" the whole movie. The movie "Get Out" when his gf is looking for the keys and he realizes she is in on it. Paid in Full when Rico killed Mitch. "The Hate U Give". "Four Brothers" when they all sit back and realize their mom is gone and they cry to "I wish it would rain"

The reveal of Orson Welles in The Third Man is probably objectively the best. I'll pick Joel and Clementine as the house crumbles around them from ESOTSM.

"Street Fighter" (1994) - The scene in which Colonel Guile (Claude van Damme) gives the speech to the soldiers. Some say it's cheesy, but I think it doesn't need to hide behind Bill Pullman's speech in "Independence Day"

Black Panther (2018), the entirety of T’Challa and Killmonger’s fight towards the end. If animated TV shows were included, I would argue Zane’s death and the lead up to it in LEGO Ninjago: Rebooted is a strong competitor.

Casablanca - The scene when the refugees in Rick's where the refugees start singing La Marseillaise to drown out the Nazis. So many of the actors (and the director) were actually Europeans who had fled to America because of the Nazis, which just makes it all the more moving because that moment of defiance was reality for them.
