Default Re: most emotionally devasting moment in film

In general...."The Deer Hunter".

Specifically.....The Christopher Walkien "Russian Roulette" scene.

I've seen the movie just once, and will never watch it again.

It takes my mind to places where I don't ever want to go again.

This. Couldn't have summed it up any better. My wife bought me the 25 years gold DVD of this film and it's never been opened. I love the film, De Niro is superb but Walken is just ultra-cool. 15 years after first seeing this film I just can't watch it because of the way Walken goes. I do feel much better thinking about when they were both holded up, captive and playing Russian Roulette and they over power the mutha's who held them.
Sophie's Choice kills me. Never ever will I watch this film either. So devistating.
