Number 1: the scene at the end of It's A Wonderful Life when James Stewart arrives home after having been shown what a difference he has made to the world and how many lives he has touched and runs around the house like a madman loving and appreciating everything, then realises that all his friends have clubbed together to save him from bankruptcy.
Number two is the scene at the end of When Harry Met Sally when Harry tells Sally, "I love that you get cold when it's 71 degrees out. I love that it takes you an hour and a half to order a sandwich. I love that you get a little crinkle above your nose when you're looking at me like I'm nuts. I love that after I spend the day with you, I can still smell your perfume on my clothes. And I love that you are the last person I want to talk to before I go to sleep at night. And it's not because I'm lonely, and it's not because it's New Year's Eve. I came here tonight because when you realize you want to spend the rest of your life with somebody, you want the rest of your life to start as soon as possible."
Number three is from Ferris Bueller's Day Off when Ferris jumps on to a carnival float and sings "Twist and shout" and his father is dancing along to it, oblivious to the fact that it's his son out there, who is pulling one mighty sickie from school.
Number four is at the end of Gone With The Wind when Scarlett vows to get Rhett Butler back and says, "After all tomorrow is another day..." Whenever I used to say to my mother that I would do something tomorrow, she would always reply, "Yes, Scarlett!"
If I were allowed a 5th, it would have been from Dirty Dancing when Patrick Swayze says, "Nobody puts Baby in the corner."

Brilliant. I love that Dirty dancing one too (Patrick Swayze sigh - no way he could lift me though!), and the bit from When Harry Met Sally. Great stuff. How was the inspection today?
