Re: Most powerful "death scene" in the history of cinema, .......

1. Agree with the scene selected in "All Quiet on the Western Front"
2. "Godfather". Don Corleone's death being chased in the garden by his Grandson (an improv, by the waty)s understatement. Far mor moving than all the carnage before and after.
3. Brando's death (again) in "Last Tango" (a partial improv).
4. Though I detest the sentimental staging, the underlying philosophy in the death of "Lord Jim".
5. And for a movie derived from a play, Becket's death in "Becket".

There are others in this vein, all quiet, not histrionic and moving for that reason.
