Favourite Anger/Rage film scenes?
One thing I hate about podcasts reviwing films...
Sad scenes that are visually distinct?

Love that one! Perfect build up!
Thanks! I appreciate it.
FentonMeiks: Do you recall what season, episode the "are you deaf scene" is from?
Thanks everyone for the great suggestions!
Excellent suggestion. Yes, Hachi seeing the lights, and then reuniting with the owner makes crying inevitable
The scene near the middle of the film where Hachi is waiting outside the train station and day changes to night is also amazing.
Noticed the original was written by Kaneto Shindo, which makes sense, becuase it has such an effective, visual storytelling.
Great suggestion! Very atmospheric scene, and the lines are evocative.
Thanks for all the suggestions, everyone! I will check out each one as I am collating these scenes.
Ozu's Late Spring has a classic sad scene too when the father is sitting on a chair peeling an apple, doesn't sound like much perhaps, but very fitting and emotional.
Woody being put on the dusty shelves in Toy Story 2 is another good one.
The film Her has a good sequence in which Theodore first has his earbuds on, getting rejected by the AI, then wandering across the city and it looks like the big predator bird on the billboard ad is catching him.
I love it too!
It sets the tone so well, introduces the character, and works perfectly with the amazing score!
As imdb trivia suggests, this is how the executives planned to massacre the opening:
"For its original release in America the distributors disliked Bava's opening credits that showed the cast posed around the salon in a series of creative tracking shots. The distributors had new opening credits made that showed a series of macabre animations of mannequins being shot."
