Witness is 40.
I love Witness.
It was on my GCSE Film syllabus. My students loved it and it gave me a chance to watch this lovely scene every year.
It also switched me on to Sam Cooke for which I’m forever indebted.
It’s one of the most romantic scenes in cinema. https://youtu.be/vKM0nH6-NnI?si=IyN5iIRK9MH1ZmUv

An internal rallying cry to this day.
And I played that song *a lot* at the time because of it.
And so good when copied in Detectorists.
There's losing a fight, and then there's losing everything. You'll always get there if you never ever fight for what you've got.
Would rather be left alone but a lot of scumbags don’t want to leave you alone. Look at America now. A line has to be drawn and bullies need to know what the consequences are of crossing it.
So you get one of those Nerdception moments of Han Solo, Aragorn and Karl from the Nakatomi heist working on a wood shop final.
The shouting was funny.
I really love the ending is basically Harrison Ford forcing the villain to give up by yelling at him! 🤗
"Not one this big!!"
Kind of.
