What's your favorite movie speech?

[indiucky]

There are certain speeches I have seen in the past that stay with me.

Al Pacinos "Sympathy for the Devil Speech" from that movie with Keanu Reeves. "Scent of a Woman" also comes to mind.

Robert Deniro holding an egg and talking about the human soul in "Angel Heart" also comes to mind.

Here is my favorite...Old fashioned I know. You gotta love some willie shakespeare...

Hitler's much parodied rant in Downfall.

But yeah, that St Crispin's Day speech plays well on film and on stage.

I think that is the only scene (until the end) that they are in together. You're right. Just two guys talking about work without talking about work. It's perfect.

It's also the first scene in any movie they were in together... Little bit of trivia.. In the Godfather movie, they weren't actually in the same scene, it was shot from behind them so they could use stand ins.. scheduling prevented it. So heat is actually the first movie they were IN together.

The obvious one.....

Ezekiel 25:17

http://youtu.be/UmvnXKRfdb8

The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the inequities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he who, in the name of charity and good will, shepherds the weak through the valley of the darkness. For he is truly his brother's keeper and the finder of lost children. And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know I am the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon thee

I'm not sure if it qualifies as a speech, but it's something that's always in the back of my mind.

Rocky Balboa: "Let me tell you something you already know. The world ain't all sunshine and rainbows. It's a very mean and nasty place and I don't care how tough you are it will beat you to your knees and keep you there permanently if you let it. You, me, or nobody is gonna hit as hard as life. But it ain't about how hard ya hit. It's about how hard you can get it and keep moving forward. How much you can take and keep moving forward. That's how winning is done! Now if you know what you're worth then go out and get what you're worth. But ya gotta be willing to take the hits, and not pointing fingers saying you ain't where you wanna be because of him, or her, or anybody! Cowards do that and that ain't you!"
