Hackman chews up the scenery on this one. Clutching Shelly to him tightly and screaming "Not this woman!" At one point you can see a thin line of drool fall from Hackman's mouth onto Shelly's head. Classic.
Back in college I'd been up for several days without alot of sleep. I got home and was too tired to lay down, so I turned on the tv and found the Posideon Adventure playing. When it got to Winter's death scene I just started weeping. Not just crying, but full-out, tears-mixing-with-snot weeping. I'm blaming the sleep depravation.

This is horrible of me I know, but that scene had me rolling with laughter and it could be the same casue. BUt I'll offer something I find hard to believe about myself: balling when Data dies in the latest Star Trek. Thank God I was alone.
