("...I found his performance in "The Desert Rats" very touching, but I don't think it quite brought me to tears.")
Yes, Susan, that was such a touching performance! I found that I actually did get a little choked up in the scene between RN and Richard Burton in the trench. But the place where I did nearly cry was when Bartlett gets out of the Tammy's jeep and has to walk the rest of the way in. When he turns around, eyes glazed over with tears and trembling, I gasped. RN beautifully captured that sheer terror. Definitely an Oscar worthy performance in my humble estimation.

"You can tell I'm an animal lover because the scene in "Gone With the Wind" that made me cry hardest was the one where the servant goes out to kill one of the chickens for dinner!"
I know this is off-topic again, but being that you brought up GWTW, the scene that impressed me, when I was a child, is the scene when Scarlett has finally made her way back to Tara and she 'whips' the horse to get it moving, and it collapses from exhaustion. I believe, right before that scene, the horse had 'slobber' coming from it's mouth and was just barely walking. It just stuck in my mind all those years.
Back to RN, I do feel sorry for Lukey at the end of his scene. He really looks almost tortured and I even managed to get some of those shots in screen caps too. I won't say that it brought me to tears, but I felt pity for him.
Probaby the most touching is the Peter McCabe scene in the jail cell. He really showed every emotion in his face in that scene.
