I had several I included in an email for Michael Phillips' blog over a year ago, so I included some snippets here in no particular order...
USS Indianapolis scene from Jaws - untouchable IMO; humor without slapstick and horror without the mechanical shark. Pure cinematic gold.
Dead dog scene from Rear Window - when James Stewart looks across the courtyard and only sees the light of Raymond Burr's cigarette in the darkness, I still get a chill
Assault on Fort Wagner from Glory - it explodes into a patriotic fury, assisted brilliantly by the music
Composing the Requiem Mass from Amadeus - Hulce played Mozart as if he really was receiving a composition from God and Abraham really looked as if he was trying to absorb it. No wonder they both got lead actor nods.
Final scene from The Heiress - Olivia de Havilland's Oscar-winning tour de force has one of the cruelest, most vindictive endings ever to a movie and it's creepily pleasurable to watch
Marcel's Ghost scene from La Vie en Rose - the single, continuous shot for this scene was magical. This also might be one of the most tragic things ever caught on film once Marion Cotillard begins shrieking Marcel's name.
Basement Bar scene from Inglorious Basterds - the opening scene of the movie was gripping, but this one was pure torture in the best possible way

I made it through all of it, but when Schindler finally breaks down, I did as well. Just such an incredibly well written scene where he tries to barter down how many people he could have saved and narrowed it down to one more person, and then starts to cry.
+1
Very powerful and moving scene.

In V for Vendetta right after Eve is released from her cell and she breaks down in front of V. Pretty deep and powerful scene.
