Planting-themed moments in Movies

[Nate]

Watched Jet Li's "Fearless" for the first time the other day. There's no Youtube clip I could find, but as a summary:

- Kung Fu Highballer leaves hometown in disgrace after getting his family murdered.
- Finds himself on the brink of death in some nameless rural village.
- Nurtured back to health by a blind woman who then sends him out to the rice fields to plant rice.
- Goes highballer/creamer crazy (not realizing he's day-rated I suppose).
- Plants such shitty density the blind woman taking care of him has to go out and replant for him.

Amazing scene. Only way it would have been better is if they had of shown her sending him off to plant with some sort of block treat.

Maybe that ending scene from Seven Samurai fits. It's line planting but there are a bunch of kooky characters banging off some music in the background which is a very loose parallel to some planting situations.
