Everything on the thread seems to be from a musical- but the final speech by Katurian (Crudup) about the Pillowman coming to Michael- and Michael's decision to live his life full of pain and torture- just so he can enjoy the stories resulting from that pain is probably the most beautiful and painful thing I've ever heard.

I tear up when I just think about it. Disturbing, sad, funny, and sweet- WAY too many emotions to handle.

The Diary of Anne Frank - the moment you know they've been caught.

The Laramie Project - Mr. Shepard (Matthew's Father) giving his speech in court. The doctor announcing to the press that Matthew has passed away and reading the statement from the family. When he says to the press "go home and hug your kids" it just ruins me.
