Scenes in movies that "get you". - Page 2 - New England Patriots Forums

Ehh I dont really get "emotional" during movies other than laughing, but one movie that does "get me" is Donny Brasco.

The scene where Donny (Johnny Depp) is trying to get Lefty (Pacino) to just take the money he is offering and leave this life behind, before he gets arrested is pretty sad.

Very, very good movie for those who havent seen it, based on a true story as well.

Finally finished The Pacific last night, and it was the first time in the series that I connected with any characters, which made the episode that much more memorable (which may have been the intention of the whole series)

I watched The Pacific twice, and after seeing episode ten, it made the rest of the series better on the second watch.

I know no one will ever come up with this one, so I guess I will throw it in. At the end of Face Off, when John Travolta shows up after he switches back faces and asks his wife they will raise Nicholas Cage's son. I don't know why, but it kinda chokes me up every time. For a movie that has no right being any good (ludicrious plot), it still entertains me and gets me in the end.

That scene in Forrest Gump is a tough one. When it starts off with the words "you died on a Saturday..." It's hard not to get a little choked up. There was another scene that was rough in that movie. It's when Bubba dies.

Also when she first reveals to him that the kid is actually his son and he asks if the kid has the same problems and she tells him that he's very smart, top of his class. The look on Hanks' face after she tells him that always gets me a little misty.

He did such an excellent job in that movie.

My Dog Skip... The final scene.

No matter how many times I watch it... I always

The last scene in Parenthood always gets me.

Since having kids I can't watch any movie where a child is harmed. I had to leave the room several times when Shutter Island was on.

Yeah that scene at the end where he's pulling the bodies out of the river stuck with me for a few hours afterward.
