What movie do you think has the best aching ever in it?

My vote is North Dallas Forty, the opening scene where Nick Nolte replays the previous day's football game while soaking in his tub. You can just feel his agony.

1. Night of the Running Man

when Scott Glenn's character stuffs Andrew McCarthy's feet into boiling water. That was some hardcore aching from that point on. :)

3. If you enjoy a movie which features a

killer badass, you'll like this. It isn't Academy Award material, but it is better than average and Scott Glenn plays one seriously cold son of a bitch. I watched the movie over and over just to watch Glenn's work. One of the five best "bad guy" performances I've ever seen.

6. Spanglish

I really don't like Adam Sandler, and I was surprised to see him in that dramtic role... but he pulled it off. The aching between him and Flor was soooo amazing.
