The most moving (and true) love scene I´ve ever seen on screen

Is in Huston´s "The Dead", when Gretta, sobbing and half asleep, tells Gabriel (her husband) about her first love, that unfortunate Michael Furi who literally died for her love by singing that ballad ("The lass of Armagh", I think) under her window, while the snow fell all over his sick body, driving him to an untimely death..., and then she, still sobbing and lost in her memories, falls asleep, while Gabriel, suddenly realizing both that he didn´t know his wife, how much she had loved, and still loved, that boy, and how much he himself loved her, looks through the window and says his monologue about how the snow was falling all over Ireland, his life, the dead ones,...

Two love scenes in one, none of them seen with our eyes, while both relived into ourselves, both loaded with a melancholy that is more intense than the fiercest scene of passion and flesh, truly epiphanic and human as nothing I´ve ever seen or heard of.

That´s my choose.

Regards

BF
