I Can't Choose! - Sophie's Choice (9/10) Movie CLIP (1982) HD

[sarahisamazing101]

What supposably happens to her is she killed or just taken

[steve998]

That young child actress (Jennifer Lawn) is obviously utterly terrified in that scene, and one wonders how it affected her. I watched the whole film yesterday and rewound that clip, just concentrating on her little face....haunting.

[MsToothfairy13]

clearly those who say that she shouldn't have chosen any are not parents or mothers... God!i'd go insane if i were in that position!

[massasvassa]

Great, wonderful clip! but your endless trailing before and after music, which is by the way taking up 50% of the trailer time too, makes the greatest moments of any movie clips, regardless if they're free, (as they're selling more by introducing samples in the first place, by giving off a "specimen" of the movie!) is just too painful. Please stop that. :) Thank you! Kindest Regards.

Fuking Nazis I hope they all burn in Hell!

@ForeverVachon Just saying that this comment should be taken down. It is the most heart-wrenching scene in cinema EVER, and Meryl Streep is fantastic

[ForeverVachon]

@Flynn4Red My comment?? Ok, since you were not rude I'll take it down for you. :-) I don't get the appeal, I personally think it's badly acted and exploiting emotions but since you're a fan, down it goes....

[vaskylark]

Gut wrenching scene..Anyone on here that says that they wouldn't have made a choice, is thinking selfishly. She was put in an impossible position, but as a parent if you can save one of your children then you do. I'd be mental afterwards, but as a Mom of four if I could save one or both die, then I'd save the one! She chose the boy because he was older and had better chance of survival. She chose because she had to not because she wanted to. Love of a mother.

[tommylellan]

one of the most horrific scenes in movie history

[lorileeky]

I would have died on the spot.

[Campagiorni100]

So scary how the girl screams like holy shit makes me feel bad for the character

[benthehunta]

@matthiify go and die in a hole

[fluffybuffy101]

I cried during this scene

[matthiify]

this is funny

[sondheimisGAWD]

@matthiify I sincerely hope you never have children if, even on Youtube, you comment that this scene, which the great Meryl Streep could only preform once, makes you laugh. I also sincerely hope that you will realize that being a parent is not something to sneer or makes snide comments at. It is hard, often thankless work. I am not a parent myself, but when or if I am, I will look back on this day and realize my children will be lucky to have a parent who cares about them.

Fuck you!

[LeLionsFromNantucket]

I feel physically sick and I'm not even a mother...I can't imagine what it feels to be a mother and even just watch this seen...Oh my gosh...

[SuperThewoodsman]

Meryl Streep did a very good job in this scene! However the man who made this scene truly memorable was the very talented Austrian character actor Karlheinz Hackl, who plays the sadistic SS officer. Man, I wish they would have elaborated on and gave his character alot more screen time. He was even more convincing and terrifying than Ralph Fiennes in Schindler's List. Had they given Hackl more material to work with and screen time, he probably would have won an Oscar! He's that good!!

[jalina64]

I woulda said kill me instead , this made me cry :/

[BrOkEnCyDebitchh]

Im not a parent, but im an aunt, I could never imagine have my "children" taken away. I would just die, there would be no point in continuing on.

[MrGaruness]

She should've just flipped a coin.

[carlycara]

Couldn't she have said take them both but take me with them? I'd have died with my children rather than make that choice :(

[carlycara]

Couldn't she have said, take them both, but take me with them? I'd haven

[KaediChaos]

Damn that made me cry.

[rekunta]

My God she's so incredibly beautiful. I'm not much for blondes, but hot damn.  Still attractive today, but here she's breathtaking. A real stunner.

[MsOHsvideos]

I SCREAMED SO LOUD AND CRYED

[Lordofdeath315]

Sophies choice stage play with electronic voting so you get to choose lol

[P4T1x3]

Omg this is so sad...

Meryl did this scene so fantastic...I love her!

[shcnoozlebop]

Exactly what clintonearlwalker said.

[shcnoozlebop]

Bubbles21227 fag.

[limka1]

this is unforgivable what they did to us.....rest of the world

[vistathon]

Speaking as a parent, that scene makes me feel physically sick.

[AngeliaClaire]

Gosh my heart breaks everytime I watch this clip. It is unbearable. I can't even imagine. Tissue please.

[gregjeans2000]

Almost unbearable to watch this. Just watch Streeps face - her eye twitches and head movements, just epic, epic acting.

[steve998]

@gregjeans2000

Personally, I was more affected by the child actress Jennifer Lawn who plays little Eva in this scene. She was so young and looks so utterly terrified though out the whole scene. That, in my opinion was more than acting. I hope she knew it wasn't 'real'.

[doforanimals]

Most heartbreaking movie scene.......ever.

[KatieBRaps4Mattysing]

Did they take the son too or just the daughter? I really want to see the whole thing but I can't fing it anywhere on YouTube.

[gregjeans2000]

@KatieBRaps4Mattysing Just the daughter

[NewKeith14]

It's indeed one of the many of Meryl Streep's finest performances!

[Bubbles12217]

I can't even imagine being that poor little girl.' first her mother chooses her then she gets killed. That's the saddest thing I've ever heard, having to make a choice. Personally, I would let him take both, so that they die together and will be in heaven together, and that they are not alone.

[clintonearlwalker]

@Bubbles12217 No you wouldn't, you would do exactly what nearly all those people did, everything possible to save any life you could, especially your own child. Actually, almost no women were ever separated from their children, the Nazi's knew better, women and children together were almost all immediately sent to the gas, there are several pictures of familys of women in children sitting in the woods by krema 4 waiting their turn.

[djscotty1111]

I wonder how many times this actually happened during those years... 1 take in this movie is enough "Lest we forget "

[matty81ish]

how can any man be capable of this evil. i don't want to believe it.

[AlyLallieCat22]

thats sad ;(

[phantomwaltz]

would they have killed both children anyway if sophie hadn't tried persuading the officer in the first place? or should sophie not even have tried talking to that officer

[KachBER]

I reccomend reading the book first then see the movie.Of course the movie is also really good,anyway.

[Psergiorivera]

Simply one of the greatest actresses ever. Absolutely difficult scene and she nails it!

[2degucitas]

@Psergiorivera So did the little girl!!!

[MrNsirwilliams]

FCKN LOVE THIS SCENE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Meryl acting is incredible.

[DynamicDookie3]

Yo stfu!

[CrazyAngelDude]

Should've worn a condom and only gotten one kid.

[liljeezy666]

@CrazyAngelDude Not funny at all. I can't believe anyone would joke about that.

[CrazyAngelDude]

@liljeezy666 Q.Q

[Hendrikdevuile]

@CrazyAngelDude The Nazi officer was making a bad joke with fatal consequences. He interpreted Jesus Christ's statement "Suffer the little children to come unto me" to mean that the Saviour wanted the children to die. Your outrageous joke puts you on the same level as that officer, or at least is a sign of hopeless immaturity and lack of humanity. Wer diese Szene schaut ohne zutiefst betrübt zu sein, der hat kein Herz (He who watches this scene without being greatly saddened has no heart).
