The ZAP of Dr. Frankenfurter gets me every time.
Hrm.
Old Yeller. Need I say more? The end of Old Yeller.
Schindler's List. The whole thing. It's very difficult for me to watch. I either become so enraged that I must stop watching or so saddened by human nature that I must stop watching. I have only managed to finish watching the film once, and would like some day to be able to watch it from start to finish again. God damned Nazis. I don't mean to Godwin this thread, but I did, so there. I am, in general, not a violent person. I might talk about hurting somebody, thumping their skull, or shooting them. But I am mostly gruff grumble. I don't like the idea of having to hurt people. It makes me queasy. Human life is valuable, even the wretched ones. That said, watching this movie makes all that go out the window. I typically become so enraged that I would like to take those responsible and do terrible, horrible things to them, cut them down, evicerate them, and leave their bodies to the crows. It truly brings out the worst in me. Or mayhap the best in me. I don't know. I don't like it when I get like that. Just thinking about concentration camps right now at this moment makes me feel like throwing up.
Malcolm X. Not a bad movie at all. Watching him go through a spiritual awakening and conversion from religion to faith only to be gunned down is powerful and speaks volumes about the human condition.

All alone, or in twos,
The ones who really love you
Walk up and down outside the wall.
Some hand in hand
And some gathered together in bands.
The bleeding hearts and artists
Make their stand.
And when they've given you their all
Some stagger and fall, after all it's not easy
Banging your heart against some mad buggers wall.
"Isn't this where...."
