The moment
Rudy takes the field after all the teammates have one by one relinquished their jerseys to get him a spot on the field.

Why we get choked
Rudy proves that with enough heart and determination, size doesn't matter. When he takes the field for those eight seconds and they raise him upon their shoulders, I'll defy anyone who says they don't get a little steamy around the eyes. It doesn't hurt that it is a true story from the '70s.

Maybe it's that moment when Wind in his Hair asks Dances with Wolves if he can see that "he is his friend" and tells him that he "will always be [his] friend" that we missed.

Do you agree that this moment is one of the best?

Are you forgetting the scene were Spock is dying and says to Kirk...The needs of the many outweight the needs of the few...or the one...Jim, you have always been and shall always be...my friend" Not only have on friend die but having him make an emotional outburst when as a Vulcan it is almost impossible. Moving!
