Greatest Snow Scenes

[bankholdup]

In honor of the recent snow in Jersey and other states, I have decided to open a thread dedicated to snow scenes in motion pictures. What are some of your favorites?

Groundhog Day - Snowball fight against kids
Edward Scissorhands - Ryder twirling while Edward carves another masterpiece
The Godfather - Michael walking with Kay

Those are two of my favorites...that and I don't remember anymore. I know you people can think of plenty more.

BTW, that Godfather scene happened didn't it? They are walking on a sidewalk, but I'm not sure if it was in the snow or not.

How about The Shining? The ending in th esnow is fantastic.

I'm not sure. Are you referring to when they come out of the cinema and Michael sees the paper where it says his father has been shot? I think it's snowing in that scene but wouldn't consider it a "snow scene".
There's a bit in Part II when Michael walks in the snow going to his mother's house but that's all I can remember

Best snow scenes for me are:
the maze scene in The Shining
young Kane playing with his sled
Love Story (shut up I like this movie)

[Boba Joe]

How about The Battle of Hoth in Star Wars V: The Empire Strike Back? I also liked the Micheal Keaton movie, Jack Frost.

There's about three-hundred trillion good snow scenes in Fargo...

(The ending in particular.)

[El Bracamonti]

all the scenes in fargo, and the end of the shining. good times.

[rushmore beauty]

Edward Scissorhands: Ryder dancing in the snow as Edward makes another sculpture.

The Nightmare Before Christmas: The end of the movie when Halloween Town gets snow and Jack is singing that song to Sally (the best song in the movie).

There's a scene with snow in the war movie Battle of the Bulge that I always liked.

Three American soldiers escape a German firing squad as their comrades around them are all killed. The snowy setting just added to the scene.

I love that scene! "Oh, an assassin! I'll protect you, your majesty!"

[tbone]

Any scene in Fargo
Ralphie's parent look at the snow Christmas Eve in the darkness

It is looking as Gangs of New York might have some great snow scenes.

Hell yeah that is a cool one...also Where Eagles Dare a fav WWII film of mine has some cool snow scenes.
Die Hard 2: Die Harder all takes place in snow and has some very cool snow scenes.
The opening of a View to a Kill
The opening of The Spy Who Loved Me
For Your Eyes Only has some cool snow scenes too
Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom-when they jump out of the airplane on the yellow raft-boat and slide on snow is cool
The Empire Strikes Back-The Hoth scene is great.
The Shining definately a great one.
Fargo obviously
I'll also add A Simple Plan to that
Beautiful Girls-lots of snow in that especially Michael Rappaport snow plowing snow against his ex-gf's garage door
I'll say it now even though its not out yet-Dreamcatcher looks to have some cool snow scenes
The opening of The Thing! great with the dog running from the helicopter and the rest of that movie too.

Sorry but I thought the ending to The Shinging was very predictable and very very slow.

Anyway...
