When he plays a Tarantella for the Italian passengers.

He's taking the knife out of the Cheese!
Do you think he wants some cheese?

Re: Favorite scene?

I like when "1900" helps Max get over his sea sickness during the storm. He takes the breaks off the piano and lets it slide all over the ballroom until it crashes through that glass wall! I love that part! It looks like a lot of fun!

Re: Favorite scene?

Ha I agree! That has to be my favourite scene as well. "Hello Captian!" Tim Roth is so fantastic. Not so much as an "oops" when he busts through the wall.

Re: Favorite scene?

By far the part when 1900 recorded that song . Fantastic song

Re: Favorite scene?

I liked the part where 1900 meets Max right at the end, and tells him the joke when he goes to St. Peters gates.. Funny, but sad at the same time

Although the duel was magnificent as well

Re: Favorite scene?


the ending.. very sad and meaningful!

Re: Favorite scene?

I think my 2 favourite scenes both involve the piano.

The first scene that I loved was when '1900' take Max for a ride on the piano during the storm before crashing through the glass wall.

My other favourite scene is just after the piano duel when '1900' lights a cigarette from the piano strings!

The duel scene

Marvada pinga que me a-trapaaaia!

Re: Favorite scene?

1. The sea sickness scene
2. The duel with Jellyroll
3. *beep* the regulations!

Re: Favorite scene?

My favourite scene would be the beginning, when the narrator explains how every guys' hearts race when they see "her" for the first time. I thought it would be referring to some love interest character, turns out it was referring to the Statue of Liberty. I'm not American, so it caught me off guard, really surprised me. Had to replay it again on the DVD.

Re: Favorite scene?

mine would either be the piano of its brakes/locks, or after the duel, the cigarette, and the line that goes something like, 'you smoke it, i dont know how' as well as the *beep* jazz.

Re: Favorite scene?

1.) The piano duel scene
2.) The scene where Tim Roth was thinking twice about disembarking in New York
3.) When Tim Roth could not express to the young female passenger what he feels for her

Re: Favorite scene?

The duel, hands down. LOVE the cigarette lighting. Sooooo classy.

Re: Favorite scene?

My favorite scene was definately when he recorded "Playing Love". It truly is a great scene, which truly depicts his feelings, and yearnings for the girl, and as she walks away, his sadness ends the piece perfectly.

The entire movie is one great scene after another, but this one really stands out in my opinion.

Re: Favorite scene?

when the camera is craning around the piano during a storm

Re: Favorite scene?

My favourite scenes were
1. When he saw the girl outside the window and then played for her
2. When he adapted the music to the different persons he saw (really funny!)
3. When he talked to the girl, received the kiss and tried to give her the record

Re: Favorite scene?

So very many great scenes. But I have to say it was during the duel when he pauses and says "You asked for it a-hole." He says it quietly. Not a threat but in the almost bored monotone telling of a forgone conclusion. And Jelly's reaction shot was priceless.

A beautiful and hauntingly sad movie.



Why settle for the lesser of two evils? Vote Cthulhu!

Re: Favorite scene?

Piano duel is my fav scene.

Re: Favorite scene?

- Getting Over Max's Sea-sickness
- The Duel
- Recording An Album
- Contemplating Getting Off
- Finding 1900 in the Abandon Ship/The Ending

Re: Favorite scene?

Mine was the very last scene, as it meant this horrible movie was over and I can start the process of trying to forget I ever saw it. I think I took a shower right away, to wash the stink, saccharine and sap off of me.

Sir you have no soul. Go back to the Crank films.

Re: Favorite scene?

A man saying goodbye to his trumpet :(

Re: Favorite scene?

Another fantastic scene:
The opening scene where the young immigrant on the ship shouted "America!" and his fellow immigrants suddenly erupted into frenzy upon seeing the Statue of Liberty. It's the perfect time to play Ennio Morricone's music.

Re: Favorite scene?

That was sad, and I'd forgotten about that great scene. Other than that one, I'm with most others: Max and the wild stormy trip around the ballroom, as 1900 plays as though nothing unusual's happening; and the piano duel, which was absolutely amazing and so brilliantly done.

Re: Favorite scene?

when he described people via music

Re: Favorite scene?

My favourite is him changing his playing when he sees the girl through the window. Incredibly powerful. No film had or has made me so emotional.

Re: Favorite scene?

duel.
1900 vs. Jelly Roll Morton.

Re: Favorite scene?

The 'Playing Love' scene as he composes the song while watching the girl through the window, an incredibly touching moment.


This means something, this is important.
