For TV shows it is hard to pick one amazing scene because there is none For movies, it is even harder because there is an infinite amount of choices.

(That is one of the reasons I always give when people ask me why I do not watch TV shows.)

Just to cite a few amazing scenes in films (in no specific order):

1- https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0052311/mediaviewer/rm1152070400/ The opening sequence shot of Touch of evil

2- https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0053779/mediaviewer/rm3309725952/ The ending of La dolce vita

3- https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0066989/mediaviewer/rm1790086145/ The confession of Muriel in Two  English Girls

4-https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0066921/mediaviewer/rm3070138881/ The spaghetti scene in A Clockwork Orange

5- https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0072684/mediaviewer/rm345531648 The duel in Barry Lyndon

6- https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0056172/mediaviewer/rm2060338944/ The matches and rising sun scene in Lawrence of Arabia

7- https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0060107/mediaviewer/rm2836542464/ The discussion between Kirill and Theophanes the Greek in Andrei Rublev

8- https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0166924/mediaviewer/rm3677210881/ The theatre scene in Mullholland Drive

9- https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0057091/mediaviewer/rm1434685185/ Angelica and Tancredi wandering in the empty rooms in Il Gattopardo

10- https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0032976/mediaviewer/rm898639872/ Mrs. Danvers showing Rebecca's room to the new Mrs. DeWinter

11- https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0040725/mediaviewer/rm4007104257/ The Red Shoes ballet

I'm gonna wait to see what others propose before making my final choice.

 I hoped someone would make my decision easier by picking one of my suggestions. But, anyway. There isn't a single risk that somebody (except me) will pick or vote for Muriel's confession or any other scene of Two English Girls so that is what I chose. The best film by François Truffaut, and no one talks about it.

PS: There is more than one confession in the film. That one gives an explanation on why she wears the tinted glasses. And why religion is so important to her character.

There was an error when we tried to push this poll. I think it might be this character:   

Please remove it from the text in option #3.

Thanks. Maybe you can add a regular hyphen to make it clear that the words are from Christine:

" Time will tell how much I love you - Christine "

I think "Clever girl" should be enough to know which scene it is?

@Jessica You're right, it is clever not smart. I translated from Spanish which is the same word for both terms. I do believe it should be enough for those who saw the movie.

Actually there are many scenes that I like, but if I choose one. Yes, I will choose the scene of Al Pacino shooting in a restaurant, in the Godfather.


Favorite scene.

Despite hoping for guidance in decision-making, I chose Muriel's confession from "Two English Girls" by François Truffaut. It's a gem often overlooked, my personal favorite, though sadly underrated in discussions about Truffaut's best work.

Looks like a spam comment. That scene was already in the list.

Indeed. I'm pretty sure I suggested it. Yet, it is impressive that the AI of spammer is sophisticated enough to take my comment and reformulate it before posting.

 "I hoped someone would make my decision easier by picking one of my suggestions. But, anyway. There isn't a single risk that somebody (except me) will pick or vote for Muriel's confession or any other scene of Two English Girls so that is what I chose.

As you can see Ladert only reformulated my old post. Funnily enough, the spammer's reply proves wrong my comment about nobody else picking a scene from Two English Girls. 

It is also worth nothing that there are at least two confessions scene in Two English Girls. The one I picked refers to Muriel's confession to her sister. The second image chosen by Paok on behalf of Ladert refers to the confession Muriel makes to Claude. So technically, both images do not refer to the same scene.
