This is scene is so beautiful, one of the best love scene ever, you can know exactly how the feel about each other just by the look on their faces, and the music fits perfectly.

I fell in love with this song because of this beautiful cinematic accomplishment.

you can see the pain she is walking away from and the relief she is walking towards at the same time in the look of her face. this scene is an acting and cinematic masterpiece portraying the nature of bliss.

This scene is so perfectly constructed, it's almost impossible to analyse. It's like it hits a switch in your brain the moment it starts playing, that just makes you bawl your eyes out.

No idea how many times I’ve watched this movie, but this musical cue floors me every single time.

The emotion of this scene blew me away when I first saw it. It felt like I could understand love for the first time. Still gives me chills.

The hug was so sincere and they both needed it so badly. It breaks me down every time I see it

34 seconds into this scene you hear the distinctive fingerpicking style of 18 year old Jackson Browne and the singing by Nico, Andy Warhol's protege. Jackson wrote the song at age 16. At 18 in nyc he became Nico's lover and that led to him ( ? ) to being on an album called " Chelsea Girl ". with The Velvet Underground sponsored by Andy Warhol. 3 of his original songs were used on the album. Wow! What more could a young boy do?

most iconic scene in my life.

this film. this scene. this was where i fell in love with the royal tenenbaums and this song. whenever i watch this scene, it’s almost through the perspective of richie and i can see him falling in love with her all over again. all those emotions come pouring out and he hates her and loves her and i feel the utter anguish he’s going through. especially paired with these days, yeah why doesn’t wes just rip my heart out and set it on fire. this and that one scene with emma thompson in love actually are my favourite pieces of cinema. nothing competes, it’s just beautiful to watch and i’m so glad i came across this masterpiece.

One of the best indie movies IMHO. Great soundtrack and acting. Thank you.

such a sweet scene. perfect music to convey Margot feelings. " I don't do too much talking these days" love this movie

This is a perfect scene, you don't get too many of those.

As always, she was late.

Love that the song starts as she stops, like time freezes, then she floats in as on a song. And we don't even mind the teutonicness of Nico. And by god, so glad he doesn't speak. She has the power and the moment and we see his affection.

The song, and the shot, and his gaze.....the ultimate in unrequited yearning. Haven't we all been in his shoes for somebody before?

I could watch this movie over and over. Very underrated.

Probably one of the best love/romantic scene ever. It's just so beautiful!

Wes is a king. His portrayal of romance in films is somewhat unmatched. It's so lovely.

I saw this in theatre the day after a break up. I forgot from watching Rushmore how Anderson was going to use music and framing to set up emotional scenes. It was both painful and beautiful. I've seen this, Rushmore, Life Aquatic, and Bottle Rocket, so many times. Life would've been a little more empty without Wes Anderson's movies.

I’ve always interpreted this song as it’s what both of their hearts feel when they seen each other.

Still one of my favorite Wes Anderson shot scenes. What I love most is the few seconds of silence before "These Days" starts up like you're feeling Richie just stunned by the appearance of Margot before his brain has to think again. This scene makes me miss early Wes Anderson direction. Nowadays his films feel a bit too fantastical and forced.

This scene just makes me tear up everytime.

i get butterfly in my stomach for that scene

One of the greatest moments in movie history imo

This whole film is an absolute masterpiece. Wes Anderson’s greatest work. There’s so much to unpack in this 2 minute scene it would take hours. The first time I saw it I was in a movie theater alone. I had smoked a joint in the car before purchasing my ticket. I had no idea what to expect. I remember the beauty of this scene hitting me like a ton of bricks.

GOAT scene! One of the best damn movies I ever seen on my lifetime!

What a great movie. Gwyneth Paltrow being super hot is also a plus.

This one of Wes Andersons best films in my opinion 👌

Wes illustrates the feeling of seeing the person you love..

One of the greatest musical cues in any film. It still stops me dead in my tracks whenever I hear it

I find this aggravatingly good. It's like it's so good that it goes from being structurally impressive, to becoming annoyingly beautiful in it's organic subtly of course while still poignantly portraying the complex and simple sub-context that is that odd entity called love.

I’ve loved this song since I was a child and after seeing this scene I cried like a baby it was so sweet hahahaha.

Man, I still miss her.

This is one of my favourite movie moments, it’s so charmingly shot, and the song is beautiful. It’s been 20 years since I first saw this scene. Now I get this song stuck in my head whenever I see my little girl, because I get that same rush of love that Richie does. She even wears her hairclip the same way as Margot 💖

i would like this scene to be the last thing i see before i die

The only scene in the movie where Margot Tenenbaum smiles ...❤️

I love analyzing this scene by the mere visual composition itself. Often times, I'll pause frame by frame and search for compositions that are incredible illustrations. From the pan of the 2 characters intro to take a pic with the ship in the background to the movement of multilplicity ( sea captains) walking in file with the suitcases lined in a row that tell a story of the return home. So much to "unpack."

This scene makes my heart ache. I can't describe the incredibly vague but powerful memory of a past life this brings to my mind...

this scene is so good wish it lasted longer with the song

Mark Mothersbaugh (from the band Devo) has done much of Anderson’s music in several films, including this one. I give him much credit for the music work. This film was very heavy on the Velvet Underground, Stones, and also this Jackson Browne tune by Nico.

I remember writer of this song forgot he allowed the song to be used in this movie, and he noticed the guitar playing was similar to his while warching this scene in the cinemas one day only to realize that it was his song being played

“Please don’t confront me with my failures, I have not forgotten them.”

Bloody hell this makes me cry

Epic film scene🙌 my life changed in the theatre

Rewatched this the other day for the umpteenth time. First time I teared up seeing this scene.

I don't know why but the silence before the music makes it even more impactful

Se vc veio parar aqui depois de ver o filme, vc entendeu que não era só um filme. Era uma poesia!

Very interesting movie and beautiful cover by Nico of Jackson Browne’s song.

I have been meaning to find this. Thank you so much. I have been thinking this periodically for years

my fav love scene

One of my favorite scenes, simply because the music is perfect for the mood. Wes is a genius with this....watch any of his movies and not get the feels from the music in certain scenes. Go ahead....I'll wait

Truly magical when she steps of the bus I just melt

ABSOLUTE MASTERPIECE SCENE !!!! 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

This scene made me who I am today.

This scene is a masterpiece

How can such a scene be so captivating.

a perfect cinematic moment

Alec Baldwin is superb as the narrator.

I can’t believe I never noticed this Wes Anderson film

Love this scene!! 💓😍

Chills everytime.

This is rent free in my head I use to want to be her when I was younger like the essence of her vibe

i could watch this forever :)

They made gwyneth look so much like Nico😢🥲

I adore this song.

This song is actually very sad and is the opposite of what they are feeling

love this scene ! the best ever ....

This song makes me sad but in this scene it makes me feel happy

A perfect perfect moment.

I didn’t really like this movie, but I did. If that makes sense

I bet this part is the best part of the movie

Perfectly written dialogue.
