Do you have a favorite film scene that you come back to again and again? (kbin.social)

For me, it has to be this, the final scene from Stanley Kubrick's "Paths Of Glory".

It's a great choice by the director how everyone scowled when they didn't get the canned bullshit answer disguised as an enlightened one. How this one panelist decided to break the mesmerized charade and you see confusion and anger in peoples' eyes.

BUT... that "we used to be" line is also lazy nostalgic whitewashing of a mountain of incredibly inconvenient, sordid history.
