Reign Of Fire - the 'Empire Strikes Back' play performed in front of small kids hanging off every word in a future where movies and their history have long since disappeared. I thought this scene was fantastic - the idea of introducing a classic moment in film history like that to those kids made the concept of the movie's setting so much more realistic. To me at least.

Brian Cox's monologue of "what could be" at the end of "25th Hour". I still get a little choked up everytime I see that.

There are too amny awsome quotes to count in that one. On peice of cinema that really affected me with out me noticing was In the beginning of EMPIRE OF THE SUN when Jim is driving away and he waves to his parents and they wave back. For some reason I found my self waving too. Wierd. But brilliant. Also the shot of Uma walking down the stairs to the washroom in the house of blue leaves.

In THE BEACH (2000), I think Oscar Winning director Danny Boyle does a masterful job of building suspense for the reveal of the titular BEACH. From Robert Carlyle's initial, dream like description of a beach beyond anything you could imagine, to the entire epic, romantic journey to get there, the movie builds wonderfully towards the big reveal sequence. By the time the secret cove is  discovered by our heroes, I think Boyle's direction is evocative of Spielberg in the way it uncovers the beach a piece at a time through a series of master shots, combined with close ups of the characters faces looking in awe. It's all blended with what I consider to be the perfect music for the moment, and even after having seen the movie many times, I still find it to be a stunningly effective piece of cinema
 
The image of the walled cove is I think fairly iconic, and is as perfect a depiction of a literal island paradise as I've seen in film. The fact that no such place exists on earth, and Boyle used special effects to close off the beach from the ocean, makes it a greater accomplishment, IMHO. The effects are seamless eleven years later
