The most emotional scene of the rejection by his father in Elf, the scene is Buddy's emotional rejection when he finally comes to learn that he is human not an elf. He journeys to New York full of excitement but is dismissed by his father. The moment reminds people of how agonizing it feels to be rejected when all one wants to do is reach out and connect with a person to whom one has always wished to relate. However, his eventual acceptance and reunion with his father brings a heartwarming conclusion, showing that love can heal even the deepest wounds.
