Line 24:
* In ''[[Pandorum]]'', Bower has happy flashbacks to his life with his wife back on Earth. Subverted when it turns out that {{spoiler|she decided not to go with him to Tanis and left him.}}
* ''[[The Road]]'' contains a few flashbacks to the pre-apocalyptic family life of the protagonists.
* {{color|red|(Please confirm)}} Happens in ''[[Shutter Island]].'' Some of the flashbacks have a more surreal, symbolic value and far from all of them are happy (but some are).
* Jill Tuck has one in ''[[Saw|Saw: The Final Chapter]]''
* At the end of ''[[The Godfather (Film)|Godfather 2]]'', there is a somewhat happy scene showing the Corleone family sitting around the dinner table, as Michael tells them he is joining the Marine Corps and going off to fight in World War II. This represents the end of the happier, together times in the Corleone family's life, and Michael's transition to the lonely, ruthless man we see him as at the end. This is counterpointed by the final shot of Michael sitting alone in the Lake Tahoe compound.
