jay asked: how do you post pictures here?

Try photobucket.com - it's a free service, and they allow direct linking (unlike Yahoo Photos, as you can see from my first post).

In Masculin-Feminin, when J.P. Leaud looks at the camera as he is told that you can't make any other words with "Feminin."

Clockwork Orange when the droogs walk by the river.

Almost everything in black and white in Wings Of Desire
For cool value, De Niro smoking in Goodfellas. Once with Il Cielo In Una Stanza and once with Sunshine Of Your Love in the b.g.

Cagney in White Heat, shooting the trunk and eating his chicken.

The burning hallway in Barton Fink
etc... etc... etc... :)

The eye looking over the city at the start of Blade Runner

The milk bar at the start of Clockwork Orange

Running through the woods blindfold in Intacto

Ah....j4n...that is indeed the most memorable scene from Driving Miss Daisy.

Yes, isn't it. Some flamboyant acting by Jessica Tandy there. Earned her an Oscar if I'm not mistaken.

(I couldn't find a picture of the shot where Will Graham smacks the obnoxious reporter against a car and there's this weird building in the background that is impossibly clear and structured and somehow seems to be the real protagonst of the scene. I'm useless at explaining the greatness of said shot [obv] so I settled with the picture above. I hope I didn't spoil anyone's cigarette break.)

the Carousel scene from Logan's Run, as the participants shed their white robes.

Cliche, I guess, but Slim Pickens riding the Bomb into Russia.

I'll see your cliche and raise you.

another cliche, but my favorite, is the boy leaning over pina's body in Rome, Open city.

There are a lot of favorite images from Mystery Train, but I like this one the most. It doesn't work as well as a still image, but in the movie, it's one of the best devices of showing the passing of time that I've ever witnessed.

i love the way mizoguchi photographs boats and water. here is a good one from sansho the bailiff. the boat in the mist in ugetsu is my favorite part of that film.
