Poor Fred Wood trying and failing to pull himself onto the overturned lifeboat.
The band performing "Nearer My God to Thee" as the ship sinks.
The multi-ethnic array of passengers all praying in different languages as the ship starts to go under the water.
You've seen Guy Standeven in something because the man was in everything.

There's a passage like that in the book "A Night to Remember:
The muffled thuds and tinkle of breaking glass grew louder. A steady roar thundered across the water as everything movable broke loose.

Chilling in print as well as on film.

The one where the food try starts to slowly move and later where it crashes are very vivid for me.
It's my mental image of the movie near enough.

The real footage of Bon Voyage - seeing all the waving happy passengers (as well as all of the loved ones sending them off), many off to start a new and opportunistic chapter in their life. Having no idea what was in store for them. Uggh, gives me chills.

I caught it (again) last night on TCM, and then was also moved by the Remembrance clip. TCM does such a great job with these every year. They are so poignant.
Zombies, man. They creep me out.

Hard to choose since most on here have already stated the most heavy hearted scenes.
On a side note, I just finished watching this again on TCM and immediately following they broadcast their annual in remembrance clip. That was just to much to take on an already aching heart.

Group of uniformed teenagers unaware of their fate, smoking cigarettes they stole (taking advance on emergency), and the officer pretending "scolding" them.
Listen to your enemy, for God is talking

The creaking and groaning we hear as the ship is going down come across as great sound effects but they were actually real, and an unexpected bonus. They were made by the timber frame of the tilting set as it was jacked up further and further by the studio technicians, placing it under inceasing strain. The sound engineers thought they'd be asked to remove these distracting noises, but the Director declared no, they're exactly what we need, keep them in!

This is the scene that gets to me the most, too. But I don't agree that the wife realized that she would not see her husband again. Many of the women thought the men were coming in later boats (the reaization that this was not so only came to many of them when they reached the
Carpathia
). At that point when "Robert" loads his family onto the lifeboat few realize the seriousness of the situation
he
does because Andrews told him the truth. The
coup de grace
in that scene is when he is holding his sleeping child, and Lightoller turns to pass the boy into the boat; the father says softly, "Good-bye, my dear son," and gives the boy to Lightoller. The two men exchange a look that says it all.

I watched this again the other night. That scene you mentioned is a great one. I thought of another. The young couple that Andrews tries to help. They stay together, and Andrews tells them how to leave the ship. They follow his advice, but end up getting crushed by the falling funnel.
I love to love my Lisa.

I think someone has already mentioned this scene. A First Class passenger rouses his family to get them to the lifeboats. He lies to his wife to get her to agree. At the Boat Deck, the Wife and Daughters are passed into a lifeboat. The small son is still sleeping, and before he is taken and passed into the lifeboat, the Father kisses him and says his good-bye. Once the boy is in the boat, the lowering starts. The Wife, realizing the truth, but not about to give way to her emotions, tells her daughters to wave good-bye to Daddy. As the they wave, and their father waves back, the boat is lowered, and Wife and Husband both know this is the last time they will see each other, but they hold their emotions in check for the sake of the children and the others. I can never watch this scene without tearing up.

The little boy who lost his Mommy, & the waiter who tried to save him.
Then later on, a woman on one of the lifeboats, crying for her baby(who was most likely the little boy that we saw earlier).
If you love Jesus Christ and are 100% proud of it copy this and make your signature!

Andrews scene gets me every time.
Me too - he is watching his brand-new baby die and, I think, makes up his mind that he is going to go with her.
The church may shout but Darwin roars

Andrews scene gets me every time. The blank look on his face. It's much more effective to me than his reaction in Cameron's version (Though I like Victor Garber and Michael Goodliffe equally well in the role) "Aren't you going to try for it, Mr. Andrews?"
Silence.
And the way he dazedly sits down as things start to break around him, and be barely notices.
And as another poster mentioned the old steward clutching the child as the ship takes it's final plunge, "We'll find mommy, we'll soon find her."
I love to love my Lisa.

I find Andrews's character quite fascinating. He is rational and calm and yet chooses to die in what I imagine was a very violent end because he was within the ship when it ruptured. In this film we are given less sense of the man than in Cameron's (in effect) remake and I find him an enigma.
I'm a fountain of blood
In the shape of a girl

Me too, this is for me the most memorable scene.

And he tells his son Tom goodbye.

Where the father puts his family in the boat and has to lie to his wife just to get her in there.

The scene where that old butler is clutching that little boy to his chest as the ship goes down has always moved me.
