One of mine was in the Nocturne with no moon scene with “the girls” father
“life is immense!….can you understand that! …immense”
My favourite scenes were
1. When he saw the girl outside the window and then played for her
2. When he adapted the music to the different persons he saw (really funny!)
3. When he talked to the girl, received the kiss and tried to give her the record
So very many great scenes. But I have to say it was during the duel when he pauses and says "You asked for it a-hole." He says it quietly. Not a threat but in the almost bored monotone telling of a forgone conclusion. And Jelly's reaction shot was priceless.
A beautiful and hauntingly sad movie.
Why settle for the lesser of two evils? Vote Cthulhu!
Piano duel is my fav scene.
share- Getting Over Max's Sea-sickness
- The Duel
- Recording An Album
- Contemplating Getting Off
- Finding 1900 in the Abandon Ship/The Ending
Mine was the very last scene, as it meant this horrible movie was over and I can start the process of trying to forget I ever saw it. I think I took a shower right away, to wash the stink, saccharine and sap off of me.

Sir you have no soul. Go back to the Crank films.

shareAnother fantastic scene:
The opening scene where the young immigrant on the ship shouted "America!" and his fellow immigrants suddenly erupted into frenzy upon seeing the Statue of Liberty. It's the perfect time to play Ennio Morricone's music.
That was sad, and I'd forgotten about that great scene. Other than that one, I'm with most others: Max and the wild stormy trip around the ballroom, as 1900 plays as though nothing unusual's happening; and the piano duel, which was absolutely amazing and so brilliantly done.
