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


At this point in my life, I have to say the knight's death in the Seventh Seal. Some may argue "But you see no deaths in that seen". It is true, one only sees the reaction of the characters to the fact that death is eminent. I feel this makes the scene much more personal. One's own personal feelings about death would present themselves only at that moment just prior to the fact, such as we see in that scene. Death itself would not exist in consciousness, and is not shown in the movie. Thus for me, it is the knight's reaction.

Sorry for the length and if I've upset anyones religious ideals. To each their own.
