The B-25's taking off in Catch 22. Needs a big screen and LOUD speakers for full effect but it's one of the great aviation scenes of all time. No CGI, seventeen real B-25's in 1970. The transition from roaring engines to quiet enough to hear that bird chirping is something that is more fitting to a David Lean movie that this otherwise quirky movie. Well, except for the Yossarian finger flip.
For its time, one of the most shattering scenes ever filmed:
Interesting to note that GWTW and Wizard of Oz were both released in 1939.
For comedies, I'd put pretty much all of the Blues Brothers in here.
However, this one takes the cake:
IMO, the best movie ever made........
This scene was illuminating for Schindler, because he finally stops to realize that he had been protecting these people, after all, and not just being a war profiteer. A very graphic and terrible subject, but in the end a message of hope and salvation.
I love the casual comments as they trash the mall. "This place has got everything."
P.S. My college roommate's dad was a police chief in Harvey, IL and took me to that mall once.
New Oldsmobiles are in early this year.
It is a great scene. But damn, for such a smart guy that was an awful way to lead off the discussion. "Do you trust your wife?" Seriously?!
How about "Sir, I used to work in finance and I know a loophole that would allow you to keep every dime of that money."
Somebody will post this eventually, so I’ll go first:
I was going to say the mudwrestling scene was my pick. Somehow, my dad let me watch that when I was like 10.
