Favorite scenes?

[deleted]

I came to this thread expecting answers about favourite scenes, instead I found a whole lot of sooking.
Anyway I loved the scene in the shop when it is raining and also the scene when Harville tells Wentworth that Benwick and Louisa are going to be married.

When Wentworth and Anne are escorting Henrietta Musgrove back to Uppercross, there's a part where Wentworth explains his plan and asks Anne what she thinks of it, once Wentworth heads to the door, Anne looks overjoyed and hopeful because Wentworth has properly acknowledged her. Sally Hawkins played the expressions out on her face amazingly in that one little moment. Sally is absolutely mesmerizing, a truly unique actress.

The only scene that really stands out to me is when Anne is playing the piano and Wentworth is standing there staring at her, then when she looks over, he's gone. The look that he gives her is so intense.

I read the book first, and I think it is among Austen's best.

Later I saw this movie version, even though the one that always has been hailed is the one with Amanda Root and Ciarán Hinds. This 2007 version I liked a lot and have saw it several times. Very recently I was able (at last!) to see the 1995 version, and I don't know why, find it kind of disappointing.... it is curious because even the 1995 one follows the plot in a more faithful way as in the book, it seems to me that the 2007 one captures best the spirit and essence of the story, and the feeling I got when I read it.

Favorite scenes?, too many really. I liked first of all that they added Anne's monologues so we can experience the story from her point of view. Among many other moments:

-At the beginning when Anne comes across all the old letters and mementos of her failed relationship with Wentworth, that she kept guarded in a box.
-After their first re-encounter and she is later writing down her feelings in her diary while weeping.
-When, after Louisa's accident, Wentworth declares that no one is more able than Anne to take care of the injured Louisa, and she hears it.
-When Anne is in Bath and is visited by Wentworth's sister and her husband, with news about the oncoming wedding, and Anne realizes that Louisa is marrying not with Wentworth but with Benwick.
-All the letter-running-kiss scene. I read many people do not like it, but from my point of view, it shows Anne stopping of being a passive character, always at hand of other people designs, and -for for the first time, someone who goes after what she really wants, taking reign on her own destiny.

Other scenes, many people has mentioned them already: the one at the piano; inside the store in Bath while it was raining, when Anne corrects Wentworth about his mistake regarding hers and Mr Elliot wedding plans, etc.

By the way, never forget that books, are always books, and movies are always movies.

PD. It is amazing that Anne had grown up to be the extraordinary way she was surrounded by her family, because you put her two sisters and his dad in a pot, an nothing good would come of it!
