    ...too hard to pick the greatest, but here are a few memorable ones (also in no particular order):

    1. The Passenger:
    While Nicholson is driving the convertible down the allee of trees, Maria Schneider turns around in her seat - and for a few seconds is framed by the blurring trees exploding out from around her head.

    2. Being There:
    The scene when Sellers has just left the mansion and you realize that the estate is in the middle of the ghetto.

    3. Mayor of Sunset Strip:
    I'm not big into Coldplay, but the scene where Bingenheimer throws his mother's ashes over the boat -- with "Yellow" blasting in the background... i don't know, it was pretty moving at the time.

    4. My Own Private Idaho:
    The campfire scene where River Phoenix opens up to Keanu is big ans small at the same time.

    5. Paris, Texas:
    The bit where Harry Dean Anderson reveals himself to Nastassja Kinski through the peep show glass by telling that super long story...

    6. Harold and Maude:
    "I find the very QUESTION dustasteful"...

    7. Five Easy Pieces:
    "I want you to hold it between your KNEEEEES."

    -- bonus documentary section --

    8. Endless Summer:
    When the "chief" of the village tries to learn to surf... there's a LOT of socio-cultural stuff going on in that one little sequence.

    9. Running Fence:
    The moment when Christo decides to break the law to finish installing the portion of the artwork that extends out into the ocean... and when the hundreds of sweaty hippies find out that they have like 2 hours to finish 20 miles of installation before the cops arrive to shuit it down... Took some balls.

    Star wars, luke I am your father, and yoda fighting in the attack of the clones

    The godfather part 1 well where do I start the whole film but I love the wedding I just hope I have one like that some day

    and finally

    Shawshank Redemtion. where freeman explains the escape route he tunneled through mile and mile of shit and came out clean on the other side I also like the quote Get busy living, or get busy dying. That's goddamn right.

    1. FightClub
    When Brad Pitt and Ed Norton
    are talking on the plane
    ...
    Norton: Tyler, you are by far the most interesting single-serving friend I've ever met... see I have this thing: everything on a plane is single-serving...
    Brad Pitt : Oh I get it, it's very clever.
    Norton : Thank you.
    Brad Pitt : How's that working out for you?
    Norton : What?
    Brad Pitt : Being clever.

    2. Kill Bill Vol. 1

    4. Pulp Fiction
    The Wolf : Jimmie, lead the way. Boys, get to work.
    Vincent : A please would be nice.
    The Wolf : What?
    Vincent : I said a please would be nice.
    The Wolf : Get it straight, gentlemen: I'm not here to say please, I'm here to tell you what to do. And if self-preservation is an instinct that you possess, you'd better do it and do it quick. If my help's not appreciated, lots of luck, gentlemen.
    Jules : No, Mr. Wolf, it ain't like that...
    Vincent : I don't mean any disrespect, I just like people barking orders at me.
    The Wolf : If I'm curt with you, it's because time is a factor here. I think fast, I talk fast, and I need you guys to act fast if you want to get out of this. So, pretty please - with sugar on top... clean the fuckin' car.

    ...LATER...

    Vincent Vega : I got a threshold, Jules. I got a threshold for the abuse I'll take. And right now I'm a race car and you got me in the red. I'm just saying that it's fuckin' dangerous to have a racecar in the fuckin' red. It could blow.
    Jules : Oh, you're gettin' ready to blow?
    Vincent Vega : I could blow.
    Jules : Well I'm a mushroom-cloud-layin' motherfucker, motherfucker! Every time my fingers touch brain I'm "SUPERFLY T.N.T", I'm the "GUNS OF THE NAVARONE". In fact, what the fuck am I doin' in the back? You're the motherfucker should be on brain detail. We're fuckin' switchin' right now. I'm washin' the windows and you're pickin' up this nigger's skull.
