For this special "Wild Card" poll, please choose ONE movie scene to move on to the playoffs for a place in Round 2.

IMPORTANT! Please do not simply vote on name recognition (or lack thereof) alone. Please do watch each nomination and then make your choice. Even if you think you know a movie scene well, it's still worth watching for a refresher.

Please remember that his tournament is for Best Scene, not Best Movie.
It's important to therefore judge each nomination on its individual merits and NOT by the entire movie.


The poll will run for seven days. Discussion is greatly encouraged!

The nominees are:


Malkovich inside Malkovich - Being John Malkovich (1999)



Playing Catch with Dad - Field of Dreams (1989)



Neo realizes he is The One - The Matrix (1999)



Ending scene - Heathers (1988)



Hotel Lobby scene - The Graduate (1967)



The Death of Percy Wetmore - The Green Mile (1999)



"O Captain, my Captain!" - Dead Poets Society (1989)



Leaning scene - The Night of the Hunter (1955)
