Best movie scenes of 2009
Big Hollywood's John Nolte puts the dialogue-free opening of Up atop his list of the best movie scenes of 2009, and I've got to say -- without having yet seen the film -- that this is remarkably moving.
This visually-rich depiction of a marriage through the years isn't child's play, and clearly provides something for the parents to consider while the kids enjoy the day-glo colors and vibrant animation.
I'm almost afraid to see Up now; how can the rest of the film live up to the first four-minute's promise?
You can find the rest of Nolte's list

That viddy is the very sweet heart of the movie but there is much to see otherwise. The dog Dug is is a hoot and though I'm usually not much for kid actors Jordan Nagai is just note perfect as the "boy scout."
And Pixar just hasn't made a bad movie yet.
