Gah, I have so many! I do love this movie.
1) Miles' story. So, so sad, and the way he tells it is so heartbreaking. Always makes me tear up. Especially when he talks about his children dying, and then his wife dying "old, and alone." The music during this part was gorgeous and sad too.
2)Winnie's talk with Tuck. Poignant, and he's so fatherly and amazing.
3) Winnie and Jesse - I loved seeing them frolicking in the field and with the fawn. They looked so happy together. And his cheesy but sweet "I will love you until the day I die!" line and that amazing shot of Winnie standing in the rain, watching them go.
4) For some reason, I really liked Winnie's talk with her mother, where her mother tells her "Every time I look at you, you're different." It tied in well with what Tuck was saying, and the fact that Winnie was on the cusp of growing up and changing.
5) The end. Bittersweet, but I thought it was perfect. She made the right choice.
"And then he started cheating...especially at magnetic travel scrabble."
