If this is not the greatest marriage of image + music tell me what is?


That amazing orchestral montage at the end. In terms of music, colour, arrangement, lighting, metaphor, expression, symbolism and pure style I don't think it will ever be beaten. Its such a powerful, emotional and devestating 5 minutes of cinema.

The barbershop bit in The Great Dictator. It might not be as operatic as this film or the other examples here (2001, The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly, etc.) but you gotta give it to Chaplin for hilarity.

While we're on comedy, why not consider What's Opera, Doc? with Bugs Bunny...?
