Once Upon A Time In The West is tops for me. Jaws ain't too shabby in kicking off the movie though.

The first 4 minutes of Touch of Evil, with the couple walking and a bomb in a car, all in one shot, is outstanding:

That scene was copied from a Frank Sinatra film. The camera movement and the nature of the dialogue.

The 2 that stick out for me are
Star Wars a New Hope where the Imperial Star Destroyer follows the Rebel ship and seems to go on for ever. Then Vader. At the time I’d never seen anything like it.
Jaws - The music and the swimmer being taken down.
Still 2 of my top 5 films of all time. Absolute class.
