Favourite Movie Scenes


Quote of the day: 
Now is the time to ask yourself, what you believe.
-Rob MacGregor

At first you watch them -movies I mean. Some you will forget, and others will stay in your memory for a long time because of the way they made you feel.

Below are some of my favorite movie scenes. Enjoy!

1. The Pursuit Of Happyness
Scene: At a basketball court, motivational speech from Will Smith's character to his son.

Best Quote: "Don't ever let someone tell you you can't do something..."



2. Schindler's List
Scene: At the end of the war, (Liam Neelson's character is about leaving) Liam's character is presented with a gift by the 1,100 people he helped to save from the holocaust. But he wishes he could have saved more.

Best Quote: "I didn't do enough..."



3. Shawshank Redemption 
Scene: Morgan Freeman's character is about to be freed from prison on parole-after being rejected so many times in the past.

Best Quote: "I look back on the way I was then, a young stupid kid who committed that terrible crime..."





4. Crash

Scene: Little girl Lara almost gets shot trying to protect her dad (with the invincible cloak of protection he had earlier given to her).

Best Quote: "I will protect you..." 





......
So there it is folks.

I remember all the scenes and the quotes except Pursuit of Happiness (I am yet to see that movie).

I have seen 3 of 4 (Not seen Crash) and I totally agree with you. Especially the one from Pursuit of Happyness. THAT was a movie......and being that I love movies inspired by real life, it really, really touched me.

@Salt: Touching movie, I think we can all agree on that,and oh you'll love crash!

These are truly wonderful selections. For me, there's also a sense of humility in these scenes that strike at the heart and soul.

Thank you for allowing me to start my day in such a positive way...

@Cheeky Minx: I feel you on that, always a wonderful hearty feeling.
And hey you are welcome :)

One of mine is from Shawshank redemption, when Morgan freeman said 'some birds are not meant to be caged, their feathers are just too bright'. It defines me all through and through.

Afronuts said...
