well, the trial of socrates is kinda shit (sorry plato), symposium is actually pretty good, meno and phaedro are godly. the republic is an achievement of humankind however. laws is long and pretty abridgeable tbqhf. ps i read all of them years ago but cant remember all of them.

Did you mean phaedrus or phaedo? Cause the phaedrus is sublime.

For adapting a scene from Plato, I would go with the part in Theaetetus where Socrates explains his "midwife of the soul" concept. I've always loved that part of the dialogue and the back-and-forth that goes on there.

I'm biased towards Theaetetus, as I spent a lot of time working with it, but Phaedrus is also good, as anons said above. However, I can't recall a specific passage that might be good.

My fav dialogue is Parminedes, partly because of its immense interpretive depth and it switches Socrates' position as the maieutic interloculotr with Parminedes (who Plato fanboy'd, and I do as well). Not sure what scene would be good for film...
