The execution of the mafia bosses in The Godfather, when Michael Corleone is 'made', is incredible. I just want to rewind it whenever I see it.
The chase in The Wanderers, which was made in the Seventies, is also a classic. Two Wanderers are being chased through Little Italy in New York by the Baldies to the song 'Wipeout' by The Surfaris. Another Wanderer has previously switched to the Baldies and he is a real leatherclad badass. The two Wanderers are chased into a dead-end and are surrounded by Baldies. Then you hear a really deep voice, the Wanderer who went over to the Baldies. He just says 'leave the kid alone', and then he leathers the lot of them.
It's A Wonderful Life is the ultimate feelgood movie. Perfect to watch when you are down.
