I used to be rewatching Joyful Gilmore for the umpteenth time and had gotten to the half the place Joyful units up the ice skating date together with his love curiosity and so they’re skating to Diana Ross and Lionel Ritchie’s Limitless Love. Whereas they share their kiss, the digicam fades out and pans down towards the janitor within the stands, mouthing out the ultimate a part of the music. It was and nonetheless is such an ideal little absurd visible gag. However this time, I felt a profound unhappiness for this man.
I had by no means observed that when the music wraps up, he gently bows his and closes his eyes – reflecting on who is aware of what? Unrequited love or misplaced love? Nostalgia? One thing much more painful?
I genuinely cannot put into phrases how a lot this little contact caught me off guard and made me teary-eyed. I really like this scene much more now due to that, however it simply blows my thoughts {that a} fucking 90’s period Adam Sandler film might really produce a scene of such theoretical depth. Possibly I am studying an excessive amount of into it.
So I ask you all: what comparatively regular scenes in films caught you emotionally off guard?
