Probably would have to go with "Field of Dreams".
Brings back so many memories of my Father and I - our very rough times when I was a teenager, and knew everything, Baseball brought us back together. He's gone now and what I wouldn't give to be able to "play catch" with him in the back yard one more time!
A very happy memory for me is when my son was able to "play catch" with him in his back yard when we were visiting - I hope he remembers.
Still brings a tear to my eye, just thinking about it.

How about when Slim Pickens puts down his flight helmet and picks up a cowboy hat? Though the set was based on research on a 60's model B-52, and apparently the production tried to replicate it as best they could. I am going to assume you don't work on 50 year old planes. And, it is a satirical comedy...

Got to watch the new spider man a couple weeks ago. Thought it blew the previous series out of the water, less whiny baby spiderman and more fearlessness.
