Most powerful scenes in movie history.

In the film "Let Him Have It", I think one of the scenes that chokes me is where Derek Bentley's mother visits him in prison the day before he's due to hang. He looks at his mother and tells her "I'm not afraid to die mum" and the look of sheer horror/terror etched on her face at the full realisation that her son has accepted his fate, but on the other hand he's not fully aware of what he really said due to the fact he is/was mentally disabled.

A fabulous film brilliantly acted by Chris Eccleston, well worth seeing

That scene from "The Sound of Music" when Captain Von Trapp begins to sing "Edelweiss" at the Salzberg festival, with his family joining him eventually. You can actually see the man holding back the tears while singing because he knows for a fact that due to the circumsrances of the war, he and his family will have to leave their life behind in Austria forever.
