THE COURT JESTER - DANNY KAYE - OPENING CREDITS - "LIFE COULD NOT BETTER BE" - Without a doubt one of the best opening credits in a classic film enhancing Danny Kaye's entrance - inventive, original, awesome - and the song "Life Could Not Better Be" tells the entire story to come. Great entrance by Danny Kaye in one of the best comedies with music ever made.
Robert De Niro as John "Johnny Boy"in MEAN STREETS - the short scene introduces Johnny Boy who is reckless, violent, irresponsible, a loose cannon who is totally out of control but is also the friend of Harvey Keitel an up and coming wannabe wiseguy - Johnny Boy is seen planting a homemade bomb in a USPS mailbox -- As he scurries away from the mailbox the blast blows his porkpie hat off his head and he's seen with a smirk on his face.
Robert Shaw as "Quint" the master fisherman in JAWS whose entrance into a meeting of the police chief (Roy Scheider) and Mayor (Murray Hamilton) and other influential committee members silences everyone by scraping his fingers across the blackboard at the back of the room to get their attention.

Karma Girl - Thanks for posting Myrna Loy as Nora Charles being dragged by Asta into every nightclub looking for her husband Nick. Holding Asta and all the packages and falling down. Great entrance scene in film.
Here are a few more entrances worth noting:
George C. Scott with American Flag behind him addressing the troops going overseas during WWII in PATTON - One of the greatest entrances in movie history
Woody Allen as Alvy Singer opens the movie Annie Hall giving a monologue to the audience breaking the 4th wall and basically telling the audience all about his miserable love life and that he just broke up with Annie - Great entrance scene - so inventive as are so many scenes in Annie Hall.
Judith Anderson as Mrs. Danvers in the front great hall of Manderlay with the entire servant staff behind her - she's front and center - as they're all greeting the newlywed couple - Wonderful entrance scene. Judith Anderson is truly amazing and looks like she could devour Mr. & Mrs. De Winter
The entrance of "Manhattan" in Black and White with the "Manhattan" hotel sign blinking on and off with George Gershwin's Rhapsody in Blue and Woody Allen's narration of Ike Davis and how he loved the City. Great entrance for New York City - which is the central character of the movie Manhattan.

In the 1955 movie "The Seven Year Itch" the character Richard played by Tom Ewell along with his boss (both are in advertising) mention "The Portrait of Dorian Gray" and not the correct title of the novel "The Picture of Dorian Gray". I'm not sure if The Picture of Dorian Gray is mentioned again in this film.
