One of my favorite Scenes

	Let’s talk about movies!  Tell us about your favorite scene from one of your favorite movies by examining the dominant element of that chosen scene.

 

One of my favorite scenes is from Armageddon.  I cry every time I watch this.  It starts when they are drawing straws to see which one stays on the asteroid to manually trip the bomb.  AJ pulls the short straw, Harry takes him down and when AJ tells him to tell Grace he will always love her he pulls his air hose and pushes AJ into the air chamber.  AJ is screaming no Harry...Harry tells him he has always thought of him as a son and the last words he hears is I have always loved you son.  I am crying at this point the next scene is when Harry is telling Grace goodbye.  I think everyone knows how this scene plays out.  She wants to be just like him. He will check in on her from time to time.  The scene ended with her hand on the snowy monitor.  The emotions this brings out because of the sacrifice.  The dialog is the strongest element in these scenes.  Cheesey put a wonderful ending.
