"Hope is a good thing, maybe the best of things, and no good thing ever dies."
Most emotional scene you've seen in a film

Surprised this hasn't got a mention.
I was in bits the first time I watched it.
Just a shame the music is recently more readily associated with a cack trance remix.

When I was a kid the death of Robert Vaughn in The Magnificent Seven always got to me for some reason.
The bookshop scene at the end of The Lives of Others.
Cagney's execution in Angels with Dirty Faces.

Great thread, I just don't want to read it though because I haven't seen some of the films mentioned yet!
For the record:-
1) The speech William Wallace gives his troops in Braveheart gave me goosebumps (the "You will never take our freedom!" one).
2) It's a Wonderful Life might be ancient but it remains a classic and the ending is not to be watched if you're big on preserving your dignity.
3) The ending of The Iron Giant - Really under-rated cartoon.

Some great scenes mentioned, but from an emotional point of view nothing will ever touch some of the (scenes?) in the Darktower books
I fecking howled like a banshee.
Eddie, Jake and Oy's deaths
Ehh when I were a kid, I couldn't bear to see King Kong get killed.
a long time back when I saw The Champ and when little Ricky Schroeder (sp?) was there at the end it got to me.
The end of The Boy in the Striped Pajarmas.
That scene fecks me up every time. As does the "Hey, Boo" scene from To Kill a Mockingbird.
It's at about 2 hours, but obviously it's not much without context.
The final scene of "Life is Beautiful".
The one that disturbs me is in Sophie's Choice when the camp guard asks her to choose between her children. What parent can do that?
In my defense I was quite young at the time and identified with his views on behavior in an occupied country
my choice too
Probably a very odd choice but I foundthe ending in V for Vendetta where the whole city of London shows up wearing the masks, quite liberating.
Iron Giant probably the best acting Vin Diesel ever did
Ending to Iron Giant was great...underrated film...and stop with the T2...the thumbs up was gay.
Its not a movie but the end of Cowboy Bebop really struck a cord with me
In Harry and the Hendersons where John Lithgow has to hit harry because he belongs in the wild and otherwise he won't go.

Yeah that one is similar to the Air Bud one.
Bang!
Classic John Candy scene.
The whole ending to Last of the Mohicans
Leon end scene
Just a few of my favourites!

last of the mohicans was marvellous - i love the scene under the waterfall
Just on this page i've spotted mockingbird, dirk kuyt and mohicans - good stuff!
I may be in a minority but i loved vanilla sky, amazing soundtrack as well.
Dog day afternoon, my favourite pacino film, and dangerous liaisons as well.
Watership down obviously. Oh and the snowman.
Actually yeah definately the snowman. How could it not be?

Hang on, am i right in thinking no one has given alastair ANY shit for this post?! The sound of fecking music?! Jesus wept. If that wasnt bad enough he also uses the term 'that was emotionally inspiring'. it's just as well i'm already sat on the bog with the shits or i might have just defecated in my pants at such bumfluffery.
Also, one flew over the cuckoos nest. A couple of extremely bleak moments in that.
I agree about the start of 'up' as well. The best 5 mins disney has ever done?

In 'Apocalypse Now' when...
Clean gets killed in the ambush and the tape from his mother is playing on after he dies. Just all the stuff she's saying and the fact that he got to hear part of it only to die before it's over.
Dunno if its been mentioned but the end of "The Wind that Shakes the Barley" was pretty moving..... maybe only if you're Irish.
The ending of Lassie was an emotional rollercoaster for me.
I'm British and found that very moving.
I wanted to find a clip of it and can't, but the scene in 'Truly, Madly, Deeply' where she's talking to the therapist, and also when Jamie first comes back, both of them hit me quite hard each time!
I think it's quite a hard film to get hold of these days, but it's so brilliant I'd really urge everyone to watch it if they can.
The Champ. I was 8. Still emotionally scarred.
Loved that film, the wolf used to scare the shit out of me.
feck, that was the worst thing ever when I was young
Good call on Neverending Story.
Has Land Before time been mentioned in this thread?
