Raising Arizona
quote:
That night I had a dream. I dreamt I was as light as the ether- a floating spirit visiting things to come. The shades and shadows of the people in my life rassled their way their way into my slumber. I dreamed that Gale and Evelle had decided to return to prison. Probably that's just as well. I don't mean to sound superior, and they're a swell couple of guys, but maybe they weren't ready yet to come out into the world. And then I dreamed on, into the future, to a Christmas morn in the Arizona home where Nathan Junior was opening a present from a kindly couple who preferred to remain unknown. I saw Glen a few years later, still having no luck getting the cops to listen to his wild tales about me and Ed. Maybe he threw in one Polack joke too many. I don't know. And still I dreamed on, further into the future than I had ever dreamed before, watching Nathan Junior's progress from afar, taking pride in his accomplishments as if he were our own. Wondering if he ever thought of us and hoping that maybe we'd broadened his horizons a little even if he couldn't remember just how they got broadened. But still I hadn't dreamt nothing about me and Ed until the end. And this was cloudier cause it was years, years away. But I saw an old couple being visited by their children, and all their grandchildren too. The old couple weren't screwed up. And neither were their kids or their grandkids. And I don't know. You tell me. This whole dream, was it wishful thinking? Was I just fleeing reality like I know I'm liable to do? But me and Ed, we can be good too. And it seemed real. It seemed like us and it seemed like, well, our home. If not Arizona, then a land not too far away. Where all parents are strong and wise and capable and all children are happy and beloved. I don't know. Maybe it was Utah.

Shane

Shane: I gotta be going on.
Joey: Why, Shane?
Shane: A man has to be what he is, Joey. Can't break the mould. I tried it and it didn't work for me.
Joey: We want you, Shane.
Shane: Joey, there's no living with... with a killing. There's no going back from one. Right or wrong, it's a brand. A brand sticks. There's no going back. Now you run on home to your mother, and tell her... tell her everything's all right. And there aren't any more guns in the valley.
Joey: Shane...
[Joey notices that Shane is wounded]
Joey: It's bloody! You're hurt!
Shane: [Shane starts to stroke Joey's hair ] I'm all right, Joey. You go home to your mother and father and grow up to be strong and straight. And, Joey... take care of them, both of them.
Joey: Yes, Shane.
That is an awesome list.

Empire Strikes Back
Requiem for a Dream
All alone. No one is coming for you. You reep what you sow and then you die.
The Prestige - possibly the most perfect movie ever made.

Empire" had the better ending. I mean, Luke gets his hand cut off, finds out Vader's his father, Han gets frozen and taken away by Boba Fett. It ends on such a down note. I mean, that's what life is, a series of down endings. All "Jedi" had was a bunch of Muppets.

1) The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance "Nothing's too good for the man who shot liberty valance." The way Jimmy Stewart freezes lighting his pipe when the conductor says it, then blows out the match...brings a tear to my eye just thinking about it.
The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance Ending
2) The Princess Bride - Peter Faulk turning back to Fred Savage and saying "As you wish".
Princess Bride - As You Wish
3) Empire of the Sun - No words spoken...Parents trying to find their children taken during the war...Christain Bale reaching up and touching his mother's face, then pulling off her hat to see her hair.

I'm a little surprised no one has mentioned The Usual Suspects yet.

2. hope they're watching. They'll see and know and then say, she wouldnt' even harm a fly.
3. Ferris Bueller

Good Will Hunting- "Son of a bitch, he stole my line."
Saving Private Ryan- "Am I a good man?" Plus how everybody reacted to Cpt. Miller's death.
Prisoners- That faint whistle blow gave me chills for some reason.
