Great scene


When Maude points at a single flower and says "I feel that much of the world's sorrow comes from people who are this," (points to a single flower) "yet allow themselves be treated as that." (Points to entire field of flowers.)

Then the next shot is a pull-back reveal of the most enormous cemetery, with identical-looking white stones. It was so perfect a moment, that I was compelled to watch it several times.

Actually, there were a few scenes like this that I re-watched.

thats my absolute favorite scene/lines in the movie. It took a few watches before I really understood what she meant but when I did it was a revelation. It means more to me than I could ever express! What a wonderful movie!!!
