OT: Best cinematic death scene goes to?

Ok, I’m prejudiced but Peter O’Toole in a little known movie called Venus is my pick.  I say prejudiced because i knew him.  I was his standby on Broadway in a play called Pygmalion. That is the play that My Fair Lady was based on.  tThere maybe some of you who don’t know who he was. If i said Lawrence of Arabia would that help?  I got to know him during the run of Pygmalion and went on for him a lot.  He was absolutely brilliant.  Anyway, his death scene in Venus is so simple and honest its breathtaking. 
There are many great stories about his drinking escapades. He, Burton and Harris were notorious for their antics. one of a kind.
O'Tooles death scene in Man of La Mancha, where he 'went down singing', was pretty good too.   Smile

A tad bit dated, but effective nonetheless.

Excellent.  What makes it is how damn hard Robert Shaw fights, like he really is about to die. 

Just reread a book I'd had for years and forgotten about the making of "Jaws".  Apparently Shaw took off for Canada in the middle of filming to avoid US taxes while various things (as in every possible mechanical thing) was going haywire at Martha's Vineyard where the movie was shot.  He then returned, and left again after his last scene... 2 days too late to dodge US tax laws a second time :p
