For a director who is famous for the dialogue, his best scenes don’t actually have any.

That’s a tough call for me. Some of his best scenes are indeed dialogue free, but some others like the tipping scene in RD, the tavern scene in IB or Ezekiel 25:17 from PF are held up by the dialogue

Too right. I’m being a bit contrarian for the sake of it, although memories of my favourite scenes are based on a juxtaposition of visuals and context, sans dialogue.
