It's not a movie but a mini-series called Band of Brothers, I didn't know exactly what scene to pick scene the whole show is absolutely amazing so I choose 2 scenes,
The first being Ronald Spiers running through a German-occupied town to link up friendly forces and then running back. here
The actual history behind this scene:
"In January 1945, when Easy Company's initial attack on the German-occupied town of Foy bogged down due to the poor leadership of its commander 1st Lieutenant Norman Dike, battalion executive officer Captain Richard Winters ordered Speirs to relieve Dike of command. The selection of Speirs was incidental; Winters later stated that Speirs was simply the first officer he saw when he turned around. Speirs successfully took over the assault and led Easy Company to victory. During this battle, Lt. Dike had ordered a platoon to go on a flanking mission around the rear of the town. To countermand this order, Speirs himself ran through the town and German lines (as this platoon had no radio), linked up with the Item Company soldiers, and relayed the order. Having completed this, he then ran back through the German-occupied town. He was reassigned as commanding officer of Easy Company and remained in that position for the rest of the war. Of the officers who commanded Easy Company during the war, Speirs commanded the longest."
The second and probably most powerful scene in the entire mini-series is the 101st airborne finding a concentration camp. here (it is rated R and especially the second scene might not be suitable for a younger audience, but since it was history, and of course a reenactment, I believe it should be fine to post)

Ye this scene gives me such happiness whenever i watch it.
That is also one of my favorite scenes. I remember having watched this movie during my school days and this scene just blew me away with intensity.
I also love this scene from 2001: A Space Odyssey where Hal 9000 grows so much consciousness that he starts refusing orders. Here
