Most powerful scene from a movie or TV show?

SPOILERS FOR THE WIRE BELOW:

I watched The Wire recently and the scene where Stringer visits D after he takes the years really stood out. Really moving and sort of haunting.

Have you any scenes from movies or TV shows that have really stuck with you?

The scene where Dumbo sits on his mothers trunk when she's in prison and cries those huge tears. Lord jaysis.

The worst bit is when he has to leave and their trunks slowly stop touching each other.

I agree. That was totally unexpected and brilliantly done.

The ending of the movie "Kids".

Towards the end of season 2 of rescue me was an episode featuring Dennis Leary his wife and son. Just the look on Dennis Leary's face when the incident happened

The last 10minutes of Brave and the ending of Toy Story 3

Bawled at both in the cinema much to the embarrassment of my son ;-)

I've always loved this scene.

The opening episode of the Shield was one that springs to ming. Very much a case of WTF!
edit! The brothers in arms on West Wing wasn't bad either!

The scene in crash , where the father gives his daughter his "jacket of protection " as she is scared at night.

Later when he returns home and is confronted by a gunman she jumps in front of the bullet as she is still wearing his jacket.

Heart was all over the place for that one.
