Always thought this was a cool scene. This is from "Quigley Down Under". Such a neat Sharps rifle.

I always liked this super weird dream sequence from Vertigo - one of my favorite movies.
Vertigo (9/11) Movie CLIP - Scottie's Nightmare (1958) HD

Dalí worked with Hitchcock on the dream sequence in Spellbound:
Salvador Dali Dream Sequence from Spellbound (1945)
I love surrealism.

Speaking of Hitchcock movies, I’ve always liked the last scenes in Psycho and North By Northwest although for very different reasons. :lol:
Psycho (12/12) Movie CLIP - She Wouldn't Even Harm a Fly (1960) HD


I've seen all of these except North by Northwest. So I watched the clip you posted. I love the edit between the cliff and the train. Then, there was a classic train going into a tunnel shot. I had to laugh a bit.

I learned about Dali in 9th grade art class. That was 1974. My art teacher introduced me to Dali. Another art teacher, one that I would have for the next two years told him it was going to ruin me because I was interested in Renaissance Art. She was not wrong. I was obsessed had a special interest with Dali for the next eight years. I found every book I could and either bought it or checked it out. Point being, I read about this dream sequence, but I didn't get a chance to see the actual scene until the 1980s. I saw Un Chien Andalou several times before I saw this Hitchcock film.

Dali, Max Ernst, Yves Tanguy , René Magritte, changed my life. Then the Dada movement. I was not interested in the literary work of those movements, although I was, and am, a fan of T.S. Elliott. If I put my mind to it, I can recite most much a bit of The Hollow Men. I could recite all of in it when I was 18.

Favorite scene? Maybe? Not really. Perhaps. Memorable at the very least.

I forgot about this movie until recently but this is an awesome scene from "The Last Samurai" (2003). Incredible movie and think it's an inspiring scene just on not giving up I think. It's a good scene to look at when you are going through those moments. I unfortunately never got to see this in theatres but wish I had.

I just saw this post. It’s really cool that surrealism is such a special interest of yours! I’m especially fond of Dali and Magritte but haven’t done as much of a deep dive as you did. During the lockdown, I read my way through:

among other things and got a broad overview of art history. I loved every second of it. It was the textbook they used in the art history class in college I wanted to take but never had an opportunity to. Oops, I got a bit off-topic. :oops:

There's plenty that sucks about the live-action Initial D movie, but the racing scenes are well-done.

Always loved this scene in "Goodfellas". The food scenes just make me hungry.
