Fargo - "...And it's a beautiful day"

Most people remember the more outrageous scenes in 'Fargo' (i.e. the infamous woodchipper scene), but to me one of the most affecting moments in the film occurs near the end, with Marge's rather poignant speech in the police cruiser. She speaks the wisest words in the entire film.

I love the little look he gives her at 1:40. Neither of them understands the other.

The tears in her eyes

Grimsrud is no more of a psychopath than Jerry, the architect of the tragedy. Jerry is a far more scary character.

Agree completely with the description. This scene is probably my favorite movie scene of all time.

I love her delivery, she sounds exactly like a mother speaking to a child that has done something stupid, lecturing them, with that voice of a mother, that voice that says "I thought you would have been smarter than to do this"

That's because the world isn't "messed up" to her. To her, it's a "beautiful day". She views evil, greed, and hate as oddities that she can't understand. She can't understand why some strange outliers to an otherwise good human race would do things to harm one another. Her optimistic worldview makes her a badass.

that's a proper analysis

One of the top 100 movies ever.
