1. Gone With The Wind
2. Field of Dreams
3. Grapes of Wrath
Hey, what can I say. I love old movies with a major theme. However, a
close fourth would be "As Good as It Gets"

Here's another vote for moments from Casablanca - the "I'm shocked,
shocked, to find gambling going on in this establishment" scene (paraphrased
it just this week in reference the baseball drug scandal) and the final
lines between Louie & Rick about the beginnings of a beautiful relationship.
Some of my other all-time favorite scenes are from Witness (though I hate
the gory parts). The barn raising episode is truly one of the most
beautifully paeans to the joy of constructive community labor that I've ever
seen. And I thouroughly enjoyed watching Harrison Ford dance with Kelly
McGinnis (?) to the tune of "Don't Know Much about History." The portrayal
of the tensions of the intersections between the "English" and the Amish
worlds was also fascinating to watch.
I also love the scene in "Field of Dreams" where the woman who wants to
ban "smutty books" huffily says she lived through the sixties and Annie, who
is defending the relevance of one of her favorite authors replies something
to the effect that the woman experienced two fifties and went straight on to
the seventies. I also enjoy the whole green grass, sunset infused glory of
a baseball field in summer.

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.
