Catharis Clip: Movie Buff Needed
Hey all,
New to the forums, but I'm looking for help from movie buffs. I'm looking for a clip, 1:00-2:00 minutes, that demonstrates catharsis. By definition, catharsis is emotional release. In this case, I'm looking for aggression that leads to a reduce in drive when releasing the aggressive energy by acting aggressively or fantasizing aggression. The key, to me at least, is that the person must feel a sense of release in the end. I remember there are many movies where someone gets angry and releases it, only to have someone ask: Feel better now? That type of thing. Unfortunately, I haven't found many clips. The only one I've found is a bad Anger Management clip.

Return of the Jedi when Luke gets mad and takes it out on his father at the end, cutting off his hand in the process.
Revenge of the Sith when pre-Vader gets mad at Windu for attacking an innocent government official, taking off his arm in the process. The government official then sees how powerful anger is and turns himself into the Emperor.
The beginning of 187 where one of the kids gets mad at Mace Windu and stabs him a bunch of times in the hall at school.

Were any of those clips anger that then subsided and made them feel better afterword? I don't think Luke felt better after losing his hand -that was more a display of pure anger. Thanks for everyone's help.

Would that Nick Frost scene toward the end of Hot Fuzz (where he mimics Keanu Reeves in Point Break (which would probably qualify, too)). The screaming and shooting the gun in the air, bit.

It's a TV show, but I think it fits. On The Flintstones episode "The Happy Household", Wilma becomes the hostess of a cooking show on TV. Fred doesn't get to eat Wilma's home-cooked dinners because she's out of the house doing the show. Watching TV, Fred becomes enraged as Wilma sings the Rockenschpeel Foods jingle. He picks up the TV and holds it over his head (shown) and throws it down on the floor (not shown). As he stand among the twisted wreckage, he breathes heavily, trying to regain his composure. A very disturbing scene for the politically correct. And a funny one for everyone else.
