We taped Wings and are now looking forward to it even more.
I was thinking of you and Hubs and your love of old movies when I watched it. It's just... oh, it's an unbearably intimate, romantic scene.
I don't know enough about Wellman or either of the actors to even guess whether it was intentional or accidental; but, watching it, I could imagine some rural teenage boy in 1927, full of feelings he can't name but that scare him shitless, ducking out of an afternoon of school or chores to see that bang-up new flying aces movie, and being completely shaken by this one brief little window into a world he hadn't imagined could exist.
DH and I saw Harold & Kumar 2 last night and laughed our asses off. While there's nothing in there quite equal to the "Hold On" scene from the first one, it's still REALLY really really funny. Less pot, more sex. NPH = made of awesome.
I'm not sure it's possible to equal the Hold On scene. I keep thinking one of these viewings, it won't be as funny, but thus far, that hasn't happened.
the single slashiest scene I've ever ever seen in an ostensibly heteronormative movie.
I was going to say, slashier than the antagonistic triangle in
Gilda?
But the screencap proves that the answer is yes.

Thanks to Tarantino, the "you can be my wingman" bit from Top Gun is always going to hold that place for me.

"Bullshit. You can be MINE."
That whole movie is nothing but Teh Gay.
VOLLEYBALL SCENE, PEOPLE.

And the screencap is just a wee little snippet. They're stroking each other's hair, petting each other's cheeks, gazing deeply into each other's eyes, and kissing.
Top Gun
is all big with the talk, but a bit low on the hair-stroking and snogging.
