There's a big danger of spoilers here (even in the thumbnails for videos) but you can't embed in to a spoiler tag. Is there a way around that?

The end of Road to Perdition. I think this is one of the most stunning scenes I've ever seen, visually, and so simple. Thomas Newman is a master.

I thhink a thread like this will inevitably contain spoilers - mostly for films more than a year old. Just embed the clip without enabling autoplay - then it's up to each individual whether they want to open it or not.

I suppose so. It's just that even without clicking play mine seems like it gives an awful lot away. I like the thread though.

TV show but as WT included a Dr. Who one, I thought why not?

Excellent scene from Rev. but it may help to watch a few more episodes to get a better feel for the scene:

My favourite movie scene of all time.
I refuse to have a battle of wits with an unarmed person.

NS. Gone but not forgotten.

True Grit , the first with John Wayne starring . I enjoyed the verbal dialogue twix the dodgy horse trader and the young girl over the cost and keep of her dead fathers horses . True Grit II same scene was good too but not as funny .


Anyone got it .?

Love scenes are a bit of a snore fest, but this dreamy scene is skilfully constructed. Wonderful touch @ 3:19; poignance in the mirror.

Great score by Wojiciech Kilar.

Lacking iron, and the wheel, the North American Plains Indians were some of the most formidable warriors in human history. Few in number they defended their lands and freedom with tenacity and courage.

At short range an Indian warrior could shoot an arrow through a buffalo. Mounted, and at full speed, he could launch an arrow 200 yards, and he could discharge three more before the first arrow reached its target....

2:40 - 2:50 Approx. A few bars of the "Trench run" soundtrack from Star Wars?

"Video unavailable" 0. Which scene was it?

Empire appears to have been tinkered with the least. I still prefer Clive Revill's Emperor, mind.

I haven't seen it, but the 3D jis scene from 2015 movie "Love" sounds like a winner.
