Once the fellowship leaves the Mines of Moria and goes into Lothlorien and they have the Elves singing in Elvish (Quenya if I stand correct, that or Sinardin) a mourning song for Gandalf. It's simply beautiful.

When Eowyn is in the room where Theodred was and Grima Wormtongue comes in and delivers this tiny speech that originally belonged to Gandalf during the House of Healing chapter in
ROTK (book!)

That part is just...for me words fail to explan. Furthermore when she walks out of the Golden Hall and is standing on top of the steps as her cousins flag is being released and it falls near to where Aragorn is riding.
I went and saw it the last 2 times I saw it just for that part.
After Theodyn is restored and he's talking to Gandalf at Thedreds grave and then the two children arrive.
And finally towards the end of the Battle at Helms Deep, when all hope was gone, but they were fighting on shouting 'Forth Eorlingas' and suddenly you hear a Gandalf voice over...

And Gandalf on Shadowfax and the huge force of the Rohirrim just comes crashing down on the rest of the orcs.

Amelie (d. Jean-Pierre Jeunet 2001)
When Amelie is sitting with her elderly neighbor (forgot his name), and they are talking about the girl with the glass in the painting.
Later on when she is skipping rocks from that bridge.
When Nico comes into the deli/cafe and she's right behind him, and then once he leaves and she melts into water.
Schindler's List (d. Spielberg 1993)
The girl in the red dress. I guess that qualifies as a scene but that is just the moment in which you see Schindler grasp what is being done.
*Isn't cool how the first chapter in The Hobbit is called 'An Unexpected Party' and the first chapter in Fellowship of the Ring is 'A Long Expected Party'? It always reminds me just exactly why I love LOTR so much, although I haven't the slightest idea why.
