Network, when TV newsman Howard Beale (Peter Finch) tells everyone to go to their window and yell, I'm mad as hell and I'm not going to take it anymore. Faye Dunaway checks the ratings and finds Howard is a hit.
After another Howard Beale rant, this time against China which has bought the Network, CEO Ned Beatty brings down the house on his head. |

And I am more than happy to contribute to the Duke love fest in this thread with some personal favorites. I prefer the full scene but, this is the meat of it. |

My two favorite movies of all time are Sunset Boulevard and Chinatown.
The ending to Sunset Boulvard when silent screen star Norma Desmond (Gloria Swanson) has shot her gigolo Joe Gillis (William Holden) and the police have arrived to arrest her. The Hollywood paparazzi shows up and her lifelong companion and former director realizes she has had a breakdown and she thinks this is her big movie. Chinatown ending, just after Faye Dunaway shots and wounds John Houston, her father and the father of her child (incest), and then attempts to flee with her daughter and is killed by the police, and Jake (Jack Nicholson) realizes they're in Chinatown where nothing goes right. |

And then came the apex of the entire western genre.
Every trick, every character quirk, every lesson learned from 50 years of making cowboy movies and Eastwood just boils them down into the perfect !@#$ing western. I'm not sure it's my favorite scene, but it's probably the most iconic. I think the 'hell of a thing, killing a man...' moment probably is. Watching Will slowly start slugging from the bottle as she goes into what happened. The cinematography as she rides up and how Eastwood plays that slow burn. Fuuuuuuuck this is a good movie. |
