Dear Visionaries:
At the risk of sounding like a high school reporter for the school paper, I
had so much fun reading about everyone's favorite music - that I can't resist
asking about films. (Sorry, but it is my sense that it is one way of making us
individuals beyond the typed word.) Picking a favorite movie is impossible
for any of us that are film buffs (I am a total sucker for what Joan and Melynda
call the "costume drama" - think "The Lion in Winter" or any David Lean film
- but especially "Passage to India". And, I never get tired of "A River Runs
Through It", or "Steel Magnolias".
Anyway, there are sequences in a movie, regardless of the overall merit of a
particular film, that are defining moments, either for the message they send,
the acting, or the technical achievement. (Good heavens, this sounds like an
Oscar nomination, and I'm no BIlly Crystal.) So my question is what is/are
your very favorite film moment(s)?
My own all time, sends chills up my spine, makes me want to leap into action
and do the right thing no matter the odds, favorite film moment, occurs in
Casablanca, when Vicktor Lazlo leads the Free French in singing La Marseillaise.
For me, a light bulb went on and it made two lifelong points for me: NEVER
identify with the oppressor and one person with courage can make a huge
difference.
Anxious to learn what you folks choose,
Rose Huskey
Once you lose integrity everything else is easy.
