I don't own any rights to this clip.

I will never understand why this film didn’t get accolades or exposure it deserved.
I’m nearly 50 this is my favourite film of all time.
The films a Masterpiece .

An opening that makes you desperately wish time could stop, like you never want to see a clock again.

[frankconley]

Most Underrated Movie of The 80s and what makes it scary, is that it really happened

[donzaranko]

The opening music to this movie reminds me of my youth and makes me long for it. There is something about this song and the "Live to tell" song by Madonna that is beautiful, sad, and refreshing at the same time. I love it!

[frankiehere]

The best opening to a movie....that emotional music...reminds me of when I was 19 Driving around just looking for my life to begin...

[Prom]

Saw this movie for the first time the other night. I have to say I'm not the sentimental type but for some reason this movie moved me and made me think about it days later. The Madonna song intertwined throughout the movie was spectacular and a perfect fit. Really well done. You can even tell back then that Sean Penn was going to be a really good actor. You really can't beat the decade of the 80's for movies and music.

[mikeel]

Oh cool. I’m not the only one who thinks this is the best opening sequence of all time. That look man. That look.

[lukewarmwater]

People don't meet like that anymore, a casual glance across a crowded room or in a library or a park, they find their "perfect" mates on dating sites and find safety and solace in the mediocre confines of someone who'll give them the least amount of trouble possible and won't challenge them emotionally or intellectually...true love is an anathema.

[troylcx]

One of the most beautiful openings to a film. Patrick Leonard made one of the finest scores ever.

[srnd]

Has anyone else played this music and drove around at night? It takes me back to the 80s and I love it

[latinolawdog]

Such a haunting rendition of “Live To Tell”. Gives me chills.

[raceface]

I saw this on my first date with my wife in Santa Barbara back in 1986. Married 33 years now. Always a soft spot for this incredible movie.

[dalton]

Love this!! Does anybody else get good bumps when you watch this opening scene????

[jacpoe]

Google traslate: I saw this movie in 1997 and it touched me. It is a difficult movie to forget. It is true that, in general terms, good cinema is no longer made. Those of us who were born in the 20th century were lucky to enjoy great movies with great actors. This movie is beautiful and its soundtrack is capable of moving you. Sean penn is a great actor

[CarolAnderson]

Anyone else here in 2020 & love this opening and movie.

[traviseddings]

that's the way to open a movie. brilliant.

[angeleteashley]

The first time I saw this movie, I was 15 years old. I'm now 50 and I watched it again today. It was like watching it for the first time. Madonna's, "Live To Tell" opening scene was beautiful. Sean Penn and Christopher Walken were phenomenal. Nothing like the 80s.

[scottyclayton]

I can see this scene hundreds of times, which I literally have, and I still get goosebumps!

[sashasiregar]

The only movie intro succeeded on making me cry. The music, the scene, that feeling of love, the slow motion and the girl looking at the camera.. Beautiful.

[Leahh]

I don’t know why I love this opening so much. The song is so haunting and sweet. It’s kind of romantic that Sean and Madonna were in love and married at this time.
