This has happened to me a few times now. There are films that I may have seen part, but not all, of and they may not have interested me. Then I'll catch one scene and it will completely change my attitude and make me eager to see the whole thing.
A recent example is The Remains of the Day:
Another is Heat, which I'm currently watching all the way through for the first time:
and finally the opening of Star Trek (2009):
Anyone else have a similar experience?
A recent example is The Remains of the Day:
WARNING: spoilers below
when the older Stevens is trying to extricate himself from the shadow of Lord Darlington's disgrace, as well as the scene when the Blackshirts visit the hall. That gave the film a different dimension for me, beyond the examination of service and the relationship between the main characters.
Another is Heat, which I'm currently watching all the way through for the first time:
and finally the opening of Star Trek (2009):
WARNING: spoilers below
where Nero's ship arrives. Very dramatic and pushing Star Trek into another level cinematically.
Anyone else have a similar experience?
