For the romantics, the kiss from A Room with A View.

Jon Hamm's final scene in Baby Driver is good.

Probably very politically incorrect these days, but some classic comedy scenes:

Bob Hope as "Painless Potter":



While recognizing the dated context, but common, that was unexpected.

Peter Sellers in " The Party":

Too lazy to get a link. Look up the Dunkirk scene from Atonement. It's so fantastic and also one of my favorite movies of all time. It's one camera, five plus minutes with thousands of extras and horses and autos being killed as they prepared to evacuate.

One camera, one shot, it's as amazing as a scene can be.

I know, right? I started to link another great scene, but don't want to spoil it for you...

Enjoy!

Thanks for sharing that guitar scene. I never saw it before or heard of the movie. I'd say it's one of the best movie scenes.

Lonesome Dove is one of if not the best Western. I might have to dust it off and give it a watch it's been years since I've seen it. And the soundtrack is awesome. One of the best out there.

Relax, it's only a melted chocolate bar, but what a misinterpreted scenario!

From I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry.
Adam and Jessica go shopping:



Oh yeah been there - the gay man who is virtually recruited to go on a straight woman's shopping spree.
Like an accessory with benefits (wine and flirty with other boutique queens).
Yip, even got yanked into the ladies' change-rooms, and nobody batted an eyelash.
It was just our "role" about 20 years ago.
And later she had to take it all back, because her husband hated everything she bought.

I mean the only female clothes I knew back then was feral/hippie stuff ala Hair, and drag show cabarets.
Meanwhile her newly-wed groom at the time wanted to change her into an estate agent.
Feathers, and tassels and rhinestones - that's "Gorgeous Dahling"!
I never had a clue, but strangely nobody even noticed, I think it was just fashionable to have a gay man with you.

Inwardly I was actually getting a bit miffed at the fashion industry, because they had all this beautiful retro-hippie clothes for women at the time, and I had to wear pleated chinos and a polo-neck.

Regarding the conquest of the Incas.

Very truncated and fanciful perhaps, but at least some auteur tried.
