Don't know if there's a YouTube clip for it or not, but the end of the Miami Vice episode 'Out Where the Buses Don't Run' when the Dire Straits song 'Brothers in Arms' starts playing.

As a huge Gene Kelly as a dancer fan...

Gene Kelly in the ballet scene from An American in Paris is one of my favorites (can't find a video link) as well as the singing and dancing routine to Singing in the Rain.

And not to forget Gene Kelly and Jerry Mouse in The Worry Song.

Hyperception wants me to add the prologue scene set to Also Sprach Zarathustra in 2001: A Space Odyssey.

I have so many favored musical moments.....here's a recent one, from Branagh's Henry V - "Non Noblis domine." (about 3:30 in) The scene is immediately after the English victory at The Battle of Agincourt. The single motion camera pan over the battlefield is just beautiful.

Here's a cult hit from the 80's, Streets of Fire. Diane Lane is frikkin' gorgeous!

I've always rather liked the opening of The Stand where (IIRC) after the opening scene 'Don't Fear The Reaper' comes in. It just fits so perfectly.

From Amadeus, my favorite scene from that movie, showing Mozart's genius and Salieri's mediocrity.

Great choice, dlb!!!! :D :D :D :D

My favorite moment from that excellent movie is 1:33-2:05 of this, which is a fuller clip of the scene you picked:

Salieri's "Oh yes." to Mozart's question is chilling!

You definitely need to see this wonderful movie - it's one of my all-time favorites.

I don't think I've seen it since it came out (and spawned that awful Falco song).
