Crash with the little girl and her dad.  Even though it turns out OK,  it chokes me up just thinking about it.
Not a movie but in Rescue Me when the son dies.

I always get a tear at the end of "The Green Berets" when "Ham Chung" (?) is asking about "Peterson".

That said, I find it gets dusty during many old war movies (and new ones too) I watch, nowadays.

Does something happen to us after we turn fifty, or something?!? WTF?

Right movie, wrong scene.

when I went to see SPR in the theater, I don't think there was a dry eye in the house at the end.

everyone just sat there is silence when the credits started to roll, and then quietly stood up and emptied the theater

The ship sinking and people drowning sequence in Titanic (mom telling a final story to her kids, the old couple in bed, etc). Heart wrenching.

We Were Soldiers Once, basically about half the movie.

AI, again about half the movie.

The scene towards the end of Blackhawk Down when the solider is telling his commander to not go out without him even though he isn't going to make it.
View Quote


I heard the Commander of Delta at the time,  General Jerry Boykin, talk at a local church about events of the day. Listening to him tell the story about having to order his men into battle was tough. He was hit by a motor attack the next day and injured. He is a deeply religious man and he had his faith well tested.

My choice for movie scene is easy. Landing scene in Saving Private Ryan. My great uncle was in the 116th Co A. The first group to land on the beach that day. He was KIA and buried in the American Cemetery in Normandy.

In case you have never seen this.




In spite of our great efforts and successes, not all that followed the end of the war was happy or planned. Some liberated countries were lost. The great sadness of this loss echoes down to our own time in the streets of Warsaw, Prague, and East Berlin. Soviet troops that came to the center of this continent did not leave when peace came. They're still there, uninvited, unwanted, unyielding, almost 40 years after the war. Because of this, allied forces still stand on this continent. Today, as 40 years ago, our armies are here for only one purpose -- to protect and defend democracy. The only territories we hold are memorials like this one and graveyards where our heroes rest.

I agree with a lot of the ones here so I won't repost.  



I will add this one though - the ass kicking scene from My Bodyguard








Everyone was afraid of Linderman...until this one gut wrenching scene.  This scene takes everything from him.  Everything.  I remember watching this as a young guy and I will forever remember the odd feeling it left me with.

Another one from Gettysburg is when Lee says to Pickett "General, you must tend to your division." Pickett replys as the camera zooms in on his face "General Lee, I have no division." The look on Pickett's (Stephen Lang's) face is one of heart break.
