Post your favorite scene. Also, write the reason why it's your favorite.

My favorite scene is from the recent Quentin Tarantino film Inglorious Bastards: the opening scene where Hans Landa or the "Jew Hunter" interrogates the french man. The scene is very long and psychologically intense. I like how the Landa has it may seem in the beginning of the interrogation is genuinely uncertain concerning the where abouts of the Jewish family hiding under the house. Her remains formal and kind to the french man and his family. I seems as though the french man is entirely under control of the situation and is well composed in his attempt to conceal the truth. But as the Landa continues to inquire, slowly the french man's calm facade begins to wear away. Landa uses metaphors as a way indirectly suggest that he already aware of the truth, and that the french man is lying. The french man loses his composure and finally gives in and tells Landa where he is hiding the family. The transition of psychological control from the frenchman to Landa is subtle, so subtle that it may even go unnoticed. It is a battle of the minds, and the french man is defeated by Landa's superior intellect.

Sorry, I couldn't get the actual scene. I guess this is a trailer with a part of it.

Jackie Brown - Watching Pam Greer handle the situation is so cool. I love when Max sees her for the first time and that music starts. Quentin's soundtracks are beautiful. I read the book "Rum Punch" too.

This is a favorite clip

Elle Driver whistling Twisted Nerve is the highlight of Kill Bill for me.
It really made me feel anxious and oddly relaxed at the same time.

Alice in Wonderland - Alice meets up with the Mad Hatter at the tea party. The full tea party scene is around 6 minutes long and includes a lot more stuff like the Mad Hatter switching personalities and screaming at the Cheshire Cat, and the Mad Hatter shrinking Alice and trying to hide her from the Knave of Hearts. Too bad I can only find the short version.

Charlie and the Chocolate Factory - Willy Wonka explains that everything in the Chocolate Room is edible - even himself. I remember feeling very shocked the first time I saw this scene, but I think it's one of the funniest moments.

Sleepy Hollow - Ichabod freaks out over a spider. The funniest moment in the entire movie!

Edward Scissorhands - Edward and his love interest Kim share a sweet, tender moment. Probably one of the most famous scenes from the movie, next to The Ice Dance.

Sweeney Todd - The song "Johanna (Reprise)". I think it's so sweet that Sweeney is singing about his daughter, but it's also pretty disturbing how he's doing it while slashing people's throats open. Too bad I can't find it anywhere on Youtube, and anyway it would probably be inappropriate for WP even if I did. Oh well.
