The Irishman – Frank tells Jimmy “it’s what it is”

Jojo Rabbit – Rosie’s shoes

Joker – The talk show

Little Women – Jo chases after Bhaer and gets her book published

Marriage Story – Being Alive

Ford v Ferrari
Maybe when he did a perfect lap or whatever that was.

The Irishman
I’m not really a big fan of this so maybe the ending when everybody is dead and they’re all at the retirement home? LOL.

Jojo Rabbit
When he found his mother and all we see is her shoes 🙁

Joker
I really like the tension at that talk show. It was hard knowing which scenes are really happening.

Little Women
My favorite here is the one where she was running after this random guy at the train station and it cuts to a convo with the editor/publisher? about proper endings

Marriage Story
So many things here. I guess the part where he is reading the letter out loud?

1917
Love that sequence where he was running around this broken city before he ended up in the river. Of course, that run at the end was epic too.

Once Upon a Time in Hollywood
I love anything Leo did. Maybe his scene where he was rehearsing lines and getting mad at himself? Maybe his scene with Julia Butters?

Parasite
Everything. The TB scare, the run back down to their flooded apartment, the stabbing at the party. My ultimate favorite is that crushing ending when the son details how he plans to get his father out of that house. Damn. That just gutted me.

Ford v Ferrari – the wife driving recklessly to get an honest answer out of her husband

The Irishman – Jimmy Hoffa getting really angry at the gangster in the Florida scene

Jojo Rabbit – when Jojo doesn’t want to kill the rabbit

Joker – the scene when his “girlfriend” turns out not to be his girlfriend at all

Little Women – the attic scene when Jo is struggling with how she feels about Laurie

Marriage Story – the escalation scene between husband and wife when they start out reasonable with one another and then blow up at each other

1917 – the whole entire movie! (; The scene where he goes over the waterfall was thrilling!

Once Upon a Time…in Hollywood – when Sharon Tate goes to watch herself at the neighborhood movie theater when her movie “The Wrecking Crew” is playing there

Ford v. Ferrari
When Miles pushes 7000rpm at Daytona and wins the race

The Irishman
The meeting scene when Hoffa is pissed off that he had to wait more than 15 minutes.

Jojo Rabbit
The Gestapo scene was one of the most tense scenes in a film I watched last year. And this was a comedy!

Joker
“Send in the Clowns”

Little Women
When Jo wakes up to find Beth missing on her bed. Both times.

Marriage Story
The argument scene. And both of the spouse’s “ending” scenes where they were singing the songs from Company. Basically, if a character sung Sondheim last year, it was probably my favorite scene in the film. Also true for Knives Out.

Once Upon a Time in Hollywood
Brad Pitt being a bad-ass while high and drunk at Rick’s house. Also his scene at the ranch with Bruce Dern.

Parasite
That entire scene with the peach was cinematic brilliance — from the writing, to the acting, to the music, to the camerawork. Also, when the housekeeper rings the doorbell out in the rain.

I haven’t seen 1917 yet.

Ford v. Ferrari- Tracy Letts’ breakdown

The Irishman- Frank’s party, its a perfect display of all three actors

Jojo Rabbit- Jojo’s mother’s shoes

Joker- “one more thing, when you bring me out, can you introduce me as Joker?”

Little Women- Jo’s scene in the attic talking with her mother

Marriage Story- the fight

1917- sprinting at the end, the fire lit sequence

Once Upon a Time in Hollywood- “Out of Time” musical sequence, sequence as the cult drives up while Cliff leaves, the ranch, honestly Tarantino is a master in knowing how to put music to a cool sequence

Parasite- peach, cleaning up the house as the family comes home, the party, literally if you take the point at which they are sitting around the table getting drunk all the way til after the flood there isn’t a dull moment to be had

For all the films I’ve seen so far.

Joker-Arthur murders Randall in his apartment and sits there with blood on his face while Gary tries to escape.

Parasite-The Kim family has the house all to themselves and they are binging on alcohol and celebrating their accomplishments, before things go very wrong.

Jojo Rabbit-The gestapo investigate the house with the “help” of Captain K, while Elsa disguises herself as Jojo’s sister.

Ford v Ferrari-Ken Miles finds out that he lost Le Mans 66 by technicality, but instead of being mad at Beebe, he is graceful and happy for the experience. We see Enzo Ferrari give Ken a look of respect.

The Irishman-All of the scenes with Hoffa are great, but the slow build up to and reveal of Frank’s brutal betrayal is my favorite.

Marriage Story-Charlie is passing out on the floor from the cut he accidentally inflicted on himself and his son has no idea what happened.
