What moments in entertainment do you find to be sneaky-good?

[New Trumania]

This is a thread asking the fine nations of NationStates which moments in entertainment (that is to say literature, music, film, television or other medium) do you find to be sneakily good, by which I mean managing to be excellent moments but not necessarily the centerpiece of the scene? My example for this is a moment in Bo Burnham's recent film Eighth Grade when a nervous and anxious Kayla is being driven to the mall by her father and she tells him to stop acting so weird and quiet, and says that repeatedly, until the last time she says it, in which she says for him to stop acting so weird and sad, as opposed to quiet. This was a moment that I always found very special for the scene because it hints at some more emotional nuance that the film is littered with, while not being explicit about it. Discuss

So you are after moments which don't overshadow the plot. A kind of aside which makes you smile or whatever whilst the story continues unabated and is a little drop of sunshine?

Nope, can't help you. But, if I come across one of these beasties I'll pop it in this thread.

- just me looking for clarification as I need this written in big letters for me to begin to understand-

In the song "The World is Crowded by Unknown Mortal Orchestra (from the album Multi-Love), when he sings, "With each eye on a different sun
She made me watch Evangelion
In another life did she blow my brains out?".

The way his vocal trails off into nothing on the final line & the instrumental is allowed a brief moment of pause for the emotion expressed to not only sink in, but also to cut deeper with the lack of musical release.

sounds worth a listen.

I find episodes of call the midwife usually have some moments that raise a smile or cause a tear to well up in the corner of yor eye: sometimes both at the same time.
