NOMINATION #33

"This is called a training circle, a master's wheel. This circle will be your world, your whole life. Until I tell you otherwise, there is nothing outside of it....There is NOTHING outside of it. Captain Love does not exist until I say he exists. As your skill with the sword improves, you will progress to a smaller circle. With each new circle, your world contracts, bringing you that much closer to your adversary, that much closer to retribution."

Film: The Mask of Zorro
Director: Martin Campbell
Year: 1998
Plot spoiler with classic scene: No

Here's one most of you probably haven't seen but I'd still like to nominate it, as I mentioned in the main tournament announcement/discussion thread. It's a very sweet movie and was my personal first time watching a film with queer lead characters.

The Incredibly True Adventures of Two Girls in Love (1995)
Maria Maggenti
