That scene impressed me more than any other in that particular film simply because when one is in a situation like that, time really does seem to go into slow motion. That scene was so utterly realistic and well-constructed (the drug dealer coked out of his gourd and babbling incessantly, the boy-toy in his own little world playing with firecrackers and raising everyone's tension level), it actually triggered the only anxiety attack I've ever had the first time I watched it.
