Post some of your favorite scenes of this current decade!
Here are some of my favorites (there are more of course):
SPOILERS ALERT!!!
A skeptic tries to undermine Lancaster Dodd's methods and philosophies in PTA's The Master (which contains a whole bunch of fantastic scenes). The tension rises and ultimately Dodd loses it for a short moment. Phoenix' character throwing an apple at the skeptic is the icing on the cake. A brilliant scene, featuring two actors that sadly passed away way too soon. Personally this is my favorite Philip Seymour Hoffman scene.
-----------------------------------------
In a haunting and agressive manner, Leonardo DiCaprio's Calvin Candie raises the suspense in Django Unchained with a speech about the scientific submissiveness of black people, using a skull of a former house slave of his to prove his point. Our two main characters realize their plan has been discovered.
In all of his anger, Leo DiCaprio wounds his hand while smashing it on the table, but he stays in character and like that makes an already harrowing scene even more memorable!
-----------------------------------------
My favorite scene from one of the best films of the decade so far, Gravity! Seeing this moment for the first time in a theater was enlightening. Cuaron had everyone in the room right where he wanted them. A wonderful message gets transmitted through amazing cinema.
-----------------------------------------
Leonardo DiCaprio and Jonah Hill produce one of the most hilarious and most significant scenes of the decade so far in The Wolf of Wall Street. Drugs, a telephone, Popeye, some food and two ingenious performances... Physical dark comedy at its most outrageous!
-----------------------------------------
I liked Spring Breakers a lot and I think it has a few very good moments, but this scene is by far the most memorable of them all. Three college girls, a gangster, melancholy, slow-motion violence and excess come together in a very satisfying and poignant scene, supported by Britney Spears' Everytime!
There are many more, but I'll post them later. Which film scenes grabbed you the most in this decade so far?
