55. It Doesn't Get Any Better Than "Twelve O'Clock High"

There is a speech in the movie that Gregory Peck delivers to his hard-luck bomber squadron. He essentially tells them that they need to give up all hope of going home and assume that they are already dead to get past their fear. I get goosebumps just describing it.

Brilliant, brilliant movie. I just hope they don't ever do a freaking re-make with Ben Affleck or some other talentless boob.
