Iconic movie scenes....
....we all have our favorites, one of mine...
That got me searching out a book on Doc Holliday, what an interesting guy he was. https://www.google.com/books/edition...sec=frontcover Last edited by Ubeja Vontell; 04-06-2020 at 02:32 PM.. |

This didn't hold up as well as it seemed in my head, but nonetheless it is a pretty compelling scene.

This is one of my favorite shootout scenes. From the 1980 movie Long Riders.
This movie seems to have dropped off into obscurity, which is a shame. It's about the James/Younger gang, and all the actors playing the various brothers are brothers in real life. Starring the Keaches, the Caradines, the Quaids and the Guests. One of my favorite westerns. |

Not as gut wrenching as Glory, I'm sure, but we were shown Shenandoah in sixth grade.I should mention that this was in Virginia where I was born. Among the many impactful scenes from that movie I also remember glancing back at the projector and seeing my teacher holding her head in her hands with tears streaming down her face. Give it a try if you haven't seen it. |

Was gonna name my boy Jefferson because of this movie (but had Twins and my wife wanted to match first initials; older daughter already started with a J, so do I, so we'd have had 4 'J' names in the house and it would've seemed like we did it on purpose so I had to audible). Just a phenomenal movie.
It also sent me on a bit of a "watch anything with Claude Rains in it" streak; he really turns that sort of paternalistic charm up to 11 in "Here Comes Mr. Jordan". One of the most criminally underrated actors from Hollywood's Golden Age. No idea why he stays under the radar; probably because he was mostly a career supporting actor. But it's hard to say anyone did it better. Love that 'you've had your six' clip as well. First time I watched Dr. No was a bit after I'd seen pretty much all the rest of them and seeing Bond just flat murder someone in cold blood like that was jarring. Favorite Bond scene: This scene just kills me every time, especially within the context of the symbolism all throughout the movie. Ultimately there's Skyfall and then there's every other Bond movie (some truly very good ones included) far behind it. I've seen the movie over a dozen times and every time there are a handful of moments throughout it where I just say "goddamn this movie is incredible" |

The Big Short
One of my top 5 favorite movies of all time. If you haven't seen it, you should. Then watch it again. And Again. And Again.

And then there's this gem from 1917. Still can't believe it didn't win best picture.
