one of my all time favorite movie . what a performance by tom hanks . liked all the scenes u posted . loved the song too .”streets of philadelphia” .
My fav is the opera song scene from this film 🙂
Not only for Tom’s acting but for everything from dialogues to setting, camera angles, lighting etc, the way tom moves around with that stand…
Its the first time Denzel’s character feels for Andrew Beckett. (From his initial total disinterest in Opera ….love the way his face is shown in shadows and lights in later part) ….
Everything is perfect in the scene.
this is my fav scene as well..
About the post, I really love all scenes/whole movie in fact but 5th from top stands out when Denzel talks about homosexuality.
Love the last line “With all due respect, your honor, we don’t live in this courtroom, do we?”
Yeah love that last line too.
There is this scene too which I had missed posting.
Well, this movie is one of my all time favorites…completely blew me away.
It is one of those movies which I can watch again and again.
