The greatest moments of cinema are brought together in this book, in the greatest, most romantic, dramatic, horrific, criminal and comic scenes. The selection is eclectic and reflects the diverse taste of the Empire team with excerpts from, among others, The Fly, The Graduate, Jaws, Gone with the Wind, Bladerunner, Casablanca, The Usual Suspects, LA Confidential. This is a brilliant collection of memorable scenes. Each scene is accompanied by its production notes and a still from the film and, of course, the snappiest and finest dialogue cinema has had to offer.

What makes a classic movie scene? What ingredients imbued in its script, direction, and acting make it live on in history? It's not just about choice dialogue, although many of the scenes here are built on the finest words ever to enter a screenplay. The scenes are also about what they envisage, the setting, the time, the one choice phrase that defines a moment in film history. It takes just one introduction, for example, to change cinema forever: "The name's Bond, James Bond". Now the cinema's greatest moments have been captured in one book. From "A Night at the Opera" to "Rebel Without a Cause", "Blade Runner" to "Trainspotting", Empire Classic Movie Scenes captures all those mysterious moments when something truly great has been created. Complete with dialogue, film production notes, and the defining still from each classic scene.
