Same with me. The final sequence. The Ray Kinsella character got what for many years I wished I could have had, and still do wish now and then---one more chance to play catch with a father who died too young.

Though James Earl Jones's breathtaking reading of the solioquy that precedes it can get me right there, too. (But that's probably the baseball fan in me as much as anything else.)
