February 26, 20241 yr It's a flawed film, definitely not one of Mann's best, but once you start seeing Miami Vice as tone poem about a doomed romance and not a cops/drug dealers movie, it becomes a crazy rewatchable film. The cold opening into "Numb Encore" slams, goes very hard: As to greatest scenes ever.....well, what's in the box:
February 26, 20241 yr 1 hour ago, Beantown Express 2.0 said: One of the greatest scenes ever and for someone in sales it hits way too close to home and is depressing as shit. Also, the actors in that scene (Baldwin, Harris, Lemmon, Arkin, Spacey) is quite incredible plus you have Pacino and Jonathon Pryce in the movie. Pacino not being in that scene is what makes it so good.
February 26, 20241 yr Since we’re talking Mann: I mean, the FBI uses it for a training vid. You could say the opening scene is better. Historians say it is technically perfect. Dedicated to the Cloak Room: Edited February 26, 20241 yr by Parliament

People say they love that scene but for me it's a total turnoff. Bullshit. Google Bart Reagor for real life application. Full disclosure: i hate the Al pacino "Inches" speech from Any Given Sunday too.
February 26, 20241 yr this thread is a combination of "greatest", "most iconic", and "favorite" movie scenes, which is fine. everything is subjective and there isn't a known greatest movie scene, so why not. here are a few i enjoy, but i traditionally like talkies. Edited February 26, 20241 yr by henrygandorf
February 26, 20241 yr When at his mother's wake, Michael hugs Fredo and gives Al that look and all Al can do is look down. He'd previously told Al that he didn't want anything to happen to Fredo while his mother was alive. Chilling. Edited February 26, 20241 yr by Nole-4-Life

That will always be the case on any topic that is completely subjective. It's certainly interesting to me to see what OTHER people find "great" or iconic. I'd say I probably agree with about 70% of the scenes posted so far, and vehemently disagree with several as well.

February 26, 20241 yr Fredo: "Well, this little boy I was going to bond with fishing can't go out any more. Oh well, this contract killer will be just as fun."

February 26, 20241 yr Threads like this make me realize I just don't watch a lot of movies. But I'll put this one up against anything else.

February 26, 20241 yr Most of my favorites already on here....Clarence getting his wings, SPR opening scene, Hey Dad, wanna have a catch? Here's a couple others I think fit...

February 26, 20241 yr "that can't be, that's inside the room..." i can remember the reaction i had in the theater to this one 😳
February 27, 20241 yr The look Costner gives at the 5:10 mark is the best piece of acting ever caught on film. Fite me

She is the female lead 2. She's pretty hot in a lot of it There's like a 5 minute scene where she's wearing just a towel.
February 27, 20241 yr 48 minutes ago, BillyGoatHill said: trollin' for rep....😆 Well, that describes this whole thread, yes. Fact that it happened to be real doesn't change my opinion one whit. Damn sight better than that stupid Rudy movie, too. Also, you know I'm the guy with the 4THAND5 license plate. I'm staying true to brand, here. Edited February 27, 20241 yr by Rimbo
February 27, 20241 yr Some of these picks are highly questionable, kidding me with multiple Rudy scenes jesus people educate yourselves.
