Dear Rooney fans, tell us about your favorite movie scenes. Provide clips if you can and have a fun :)
I'll start with the 1940s.
'Citizen Kane'(1941). I always loved gothic horror vibe of opening scene:
'The Third Man' (1949) ending scene. I'll quote Roger Ebert here: "The final scene in "The Third Man" is a long, elegiac sigh. It almost did not exist. Selznick and Greene originally wanted a happy ending. (Greene originally wrote, ". . . her hand was through his arm"). Reed convinced Greene he was wrong. The movie ends as it begins, in a cemetery, and then Calloway gives Holly a ride back to town. They pass Anna walking on the roadside. Holly asks to be let out of the jeep. He stands under a tree, waiting for her. She walks toward him, past him, and then out of frame, never looking. After a long pause, Holly lights a cigarette and wearily throws away the match. Joseph Cotten recalled later that he thought the scene would end sooner. But Reed kept the camera running, making it an unusually long shot, and absolutely perfect."
'Black Narcissus' (1947). "Lipstick" scene with Deborah Kerr (Sister Clodagh) and Kathleen Byron (Sister Ruth):
'The Treasure of the Sierra Madre' (1948). Two scenes with Walter Huston: :lol2:

Amélie (Jean-Pierre Jeunet ). I love every single frame of it and everything about it, this is my fav movie ever :) . A Very Long Engagement (Jean-Pierre Jeunet) Jack et la mécanique du cœur (Mathias Malzieu). Mathias Malzieu wrote the book that came with a soundtrack, he also wrote the lyrics and music on it, sang on it. Then he wrote the screenplay, directed the movie and is the voice of Jack in the french version . The book is one of my favs. I love this scene because it graphically recreates the moment you fall in love. Café de flore (Jean-Marc Vallée before Hollywood) I love the last scene, but as it is a spoiler, I’m only posting the trailer: Life of pi (Ang Lee) the other : A little princess (Alfonso Cuarón) About time (Richard Curtis) Carol
