Rami Malek is incredible in this scene from Mr. Robot. You can see the pain in Elliot’s eyes, and it’s hard not to feel for him. Moments like this are a big part of why this series is so special.

Bill Paxton was so good in Frailty. The way Dad makes his sons believe they’re doing God’s work is genuinely disturbing. What makes it even scarier is how much he truly believes in what he’s doing.

Philip Seymour Hoffman is so good as Freddie in The Talented Mr. Ripley. The way he gets under Tom’s skin without even trying makes the tension between them so uncomfortable to watch. He knew exactly how to make Freddie impossible to ignore.

Nacho spent so long trying to escape the life he was trapped in, only to realize he might never get out. He sacrificed himself to give his father a chance at a life free from the cartel. That’s what makes his ending so heartbreaking.

The “Funny how?” scene in Goodfellas wasn’t even in the original script. Joe Pesci took inspiration from something that happened to him in real life, which makes the whole scene even better.

Timothée Chalamet went all in on this role. The way he commands the room as Paul Atreides is insane.

We all thought Walter had finally walked away and could have some peace, but one tiny mistake changed everything. Hank reading that inscription in the book led to one of the biggest reveals in Breaking Bad. What brilliant writing.

I love how A History of Violence pulls off this scene. Tom Stall looks like the last person you’d expect to do something like that, and then Viggo Mortensen completely changes how you see him. It’s a side of Tom nobody saw coming.

The silence in this scene from Hereditary is more disturbing than anything else. Peter knows what happened to his sister, but he's too terrified to even face it. Alex Wolff's expression makes this moment absolutely haunting.

I love this scene in American Gangster. The moment Denzel Washington walks out of the cafe and faces the chaos, Frank Lucas barely needs to say anything. The way Denzel carries himself makes the whole scene hit harder.

Only Pulp Fiction could turn accidentally shooting a guy in the backseat into a scene this entertaining. The way Jules and Vincent argue about the mess while driving around in a blood-covered car is peak Tarantino.
