'Fess Up, You Goddamn Sissies!

[Gail Simone]

I want to know the movies that have actually made you cry.

I know most of the posts to follow might be of the, "Oh, man, I saw the LOVE GURU and I'm STILL weeping!" so I presumptively declare those posters to be GELDINGS.

If a movie made you cry, I want to know about it!

Gail

PS. Pollyanna and Terms of Endearment, EVERY FUCKING TIME.

[Maxwell]

Requiem for a Dream made me cry.

Watching that movie was like getting beat up.

[HomerGator]

....White Fang.

God, I suck.

[Bryan H]

Powder.

[Amos Moses]

Letters From Iwo Jima.

[UltimateQuintessa]

Casablanca
The Good Girl

[John M. Coker (Johnny C.)]

The Notebook.

[Susan BANthony]

Beaches and Little Mermaid.

Shut up or I'll hit you. Hard. :x

[bartleby]

ONE TRUE THING, while not a great movie, hit close to home for me and had me tearing as did THE FAMILY STONE and LIFE AS A HOUSE. And I think I shed a tear at the end of the end of GOOD WILL HUNTING, but it was more of a happy sad than a weepy sad.

And ARMAGEDDON of course.

Steel Magnolias. It's true. :surrend:

A few other movies have made me cry, but can't seem to think of them right now. I'll have to REALLy think about it.

[Thommy Melanson]

Return Of The Living Dead 3.

Now THAT'S what love is supposed to be! :cry:

[SidekicksRevenge]

I'm a sucker for sports movies, and get a lump in my throat every freakin' time the underdog team completes their unlikely win (even the end of Teen Wolf, for God's sake)...

But the only ones that actually made me shed a tear were Rocky and Hoosiers.

[Amos Moses]

Beaches and Little Mermaid.

Shut up or I'll hit you. Hard. :x

Little Mermaid?! Wow. When you make eggs for breakfast do your eyes water up?

[Glixy]

West Side Story gets me every time. Same with The King and I.

More recently, Atonement made me cry for like a week.

PS - Is Gail always like this, or has she been doing meth lately or something?

[BCD]

ET when I saw it for the first time as a kid.

That's the only movie movie that I can think of.

Though a few months ago I watched Twin Towers for the first time. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Twin_Towers_%28film%29

One of the brothers lived across the street from me, his family still does. Even though I knew what I was about to watch, I wasn't really ready to I guess. It was just very bizarre seeing him like that after like 6 years or however long it had been. That made me cry.

[c. page]

armageddon gets me a little misty near the end.

finding neverland, as well.

[Jason California]

Armegedon.

I probably tear up for more movies than I should though.

[Thommy Melanson]

I think I cried near the end of Open Water.

That's a sad and horrible situation to end up in.

[Susan BANthony]

Little Mermaid?! Wow. When you make eggs for breakfast do your eyes water up?

She had to leave her family. SHUT. UP. :x

[Black Roman]

Armageddon, while it is an awful, awful movie, did get me to cry a bit at the end as well. :surrend:

Also, "Good-Bye, Lenin!"

[Gail Simone]

Steel Magnolias. It's true. :surrend:

A few other movies have made me cry, but can't seem to think of them right now. I'll have to REALLy think about it.

I am not a huge 'chick flick' consumer, really, because I find many of them to be terribly cynical in what they say about the audience. But this film had a delightful darkness around the edges, and yes, I cried during this one, too, even though I thought the salon stuff was pretty unrealistic!

[Tom Burgos]

Titanic, Beaches, Soul Food, Pocahontas, The Little Mermaid, The Lion King, The HUnchback Of Notre Dame, The Iron Giant, The Joy Luck Club, One True Thing, The Mighty and so many others I lost count.

I love having a good cry over a tearjerker, catharsis and all that, I guess.

[Amos Moses]

Armegedon.


armageddon gets me a little misty near the end.


Crap I forgot about Armageddon. Yeah those last few scenes are really moving.


She had to leave her family. SHUT. UP. :x

My bad. I'll send you a night light and the edited version of Bambi as remitence.

[Thommy Melanson]

It doesn't make me cry, but Strange Days always bums me out.

How Lenny keeps replaying the old tapes of his and Faith's relationship, and how Faith keeps pushing him away to keep him safe from the gangsters.

[Adrian B AWESOME]

I'm crying because I'm so happy at the end of Armageddon. Bruce Willis couldn't die fast enough in that one.

I'm a puss. I cry at movies all the time, if they're done well. Let's see...as far kinda sappy but still sweet weepy: Edward Scissorhands and Punch-Drunk Love immediatly come to mind. Movies that you can't help but cry at (if you're human): Black Hawk Down is awful for me. The Deer Hunter kills me. The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou when he comes face to face with the jaguar shark. The end of Saving Private Ryan (obviously), JFK gets me when Costner is giving his closing argument.

And I always cry at the end of Close Encounters of the Third Kind, but it's this sort of happy cry, as the film always fills me with hope.

[NATE!]

No movie has ever made me cry.

Some might say that it's because I'm dead inside, which is really not to be ignored, but I personally think it's because I'M NOT A WEEPY BITCH. :D

[BenC (formerly Ape-X)]

The ending of ONCE had me blubbering...

[Adrian B AWESOME]

I don't cry at the end of Requiem for a Dream, because I can't. I'm in too much pain because I feel like I've been puncher in the gut and face a million times by the end of the film.

[stevapalooza]

The Champ used to get to me as a kid. Also the end of King Kong.

fuck, i forgot about the iron giant.

it gets mighty dusty in the page household near the end of that movie.

[bartleby]

And ARMAGEDDON of course.

I don't know if I was serious or joking myself, but I really wasn't expecting so many people to copy my answer.

Only a daddy's girl would understand!:D

[Evan the Shaggy]

Can't believe no one mentioned Grave of the Fireflies.

[schizorabbit]

The Orphanage made me cry.
And so did the ending of Pieces of April (with Mrs. Tom Cruise).

[Petey Parker]

I get a little teary eyed during Love Actually

[Brian Defferding]

Schindler's List, hands down. That scene where they put stones on Oscar's grave made me lose it.

[Adrian B AWESOME]

fuck, i forgot about the iron giant.

it gets mighty dusty in the page household near the end of that movie.

Shit. That's a good one.

Man, I'm a sucker for weepers. But, to me, it's the ones that blindside you that really get to me.

I was SCREAMING admist a shower of tears at my TV the first time I saw American History X. Never since again, but I think part of me knew exactly what was going to happen, but I just wouldn't admit to myself it would.

[NATE!]

Actually, now that I think about it, The Mouse And His Child ALMOST made me cry as a kid. Hell of a movie, especially for kids.

[Black Roman]

Schindler's List, hands down. That scene where they put stones on Oscar's grave made me lose it.

Oh yeah, how could I forget. God. I was like a water works watching that.

EDIT: And OH my god. I totally forgot The Iron Giant. I cried as a kid, and I still get misty now.

[UltimateQuintessa]

I don't know if I was serious or joking myself, but I really wasn't expecting so many people to copy my answer.

Yet so many people think Micheal Bay is a hack. Strange.

[c. page]

Can't believe no one mentioned Grave of the Fireflies.

i have not seen this, yet i hear it is quite the tear jerker.

[Adrian B AWESOME]

If you don't shed a tear at the end of Pan's Labyrinth, you're not human.

[saymama]

Let's see, Fried Green Tomotoes, Steel Magnolias, Beaches...those are some of the classics. btw, pollyanna is one of my fav movies! Recently, at the movies I have cried at PS I love you and just yesterday, Sex and the City. But I am going through an unwanted (on my part) divorce and I would cry and kodak and hallmark commericals right now!

i have heard that A Walk in the Clouds is a tearjerker, but i've never seen it. nope that's not the right movie. but that one was as well. let me find it. Sorry, it's A Walk to Remember!

[Glixy]

Really, noone else for Atonement? I recently cried just from seeing the box at Blockbuster and being reminded of it...

I was depressed for, like a week after the fucking flick.

[c. page]

i would also say "dancer in the dark" with bjork, but that fucking movie left me too depressed to cry.

same with requiem for a dream.

[Adrian B AWESOME]

If it wasn't for the tacked-on forced happy Hollywood ending that all the films were forced to have at the time, Mr. Smith Goes to Washington would be here. But instead, in the last minute of the movie, everything becomes ok for absolutely no reason.

[Adrian B AWESOME]

Mystic River, while not making me cry, upsets me a great deal. Same with Unforgiven.

[Susan BANthony]

My bad. I'll send you a night light and the edited version of Bambi as remitence.

You know, I was once told that I had no soul because I didn't cry at Free Willy. :x

I'm not even a daddy's girl! My dad and I don't get along. She just had to choose either her family or Eric, and she went with the unknown that happened to be her dream.

[Sy-Klone]

Hmm. The only ones that occur to me off the top of my head are IT'S A WONDERFUL LIFE and E.T. THE EXTRA-TERRESTRIAL. IT'S A WONDERFUL LIFE gets me every single Christmas, and E.T. is still incredibly moving to me.

Yeah, but did you cry at the BSG mid-season finale like I did? :D

[Brewtown Andy]

I don't know if I was serious or joking myself, but I really wasn't expecting so many people to copy my answer.I'll add my name to that list.

Also, The Sixth Sense and Big Fish.

[Adrian B AWESOME]

The Elephant Man gets me every time as well.

[Sy-Klone]

Yeah, but did you cry at the BSG mid-season finale like I did? :D

No, but I got a little misty in the episode that aired just prior to the finale. :surrend:

[Gunter]

Old Yeller
Where the Red Fern Grows

[Black Roman]

I'll add my name to that list.

Also, The Sixth Sense and Big Fish.

Yep, that final scene at the end really gets me.

[Foolish Mortal]

Schindler's List
The Color Purple
Dances With Wolves
The Lion King

[Thommy Melanson]

Sophie's Choice is instant cry, just add water.

[Patch]

"Mo cuishle... means "My darling, my blood."

Million Dollar Baby

[JoeE]

Grave of the Fireflies. I cried both times, but the second time I was on the floor. That and United 93 are the movies that have affected me the most deeply.

Other than that, I cried during Life Is Beautiful, but that movie is very emotionally manipulative.

I also think I got a little weepy during Once.

[Black Roman]

Sophie's Choice is instant cry, just add water.

Another one on the list.

And I've never seen a movie "Where The Red Ferns Grow" but the book made me a weepy mess when I was a kid.

[Mike]

Terms of Endearment and Big Fish, because the thought of losing my parents is starting to really affect me as they age.

Also, Philadelphia because it's so fucking sad and beautiful with the family videos and great Neil Young song at the end.

[saymama]

Old Yeller
Where the Red Fern Grows


pussy!

[Adrian B AWESOME]

But yeah, nothing is sadder than the Deer Hunter. It's a 3 hour tragedy.

[John Drake]

The Lion King..the stampede scene.

[Thommy Melanson]

pussy!

That makes us all cry.

[Jerome Gibbons]

Y'know, that's true about Armageddon, now that I think about it. It's an ass movie, but the last few moments are rather moving.

[saymama]

That makes us all cry.

lol!!!!

another one is The Man in the Moon. Reese Witherspoons first movie.

[William Joseph Dunn]

Iron Giant

[Gunter]

pussy!

No, it was about the dogs.

[saymama]

No, it was about the dogs.


:lol:

[NATE!]

So are most Michael Cimino films.

Terms of Endearment and Big Fish, because the thought of losing my parents is starting to really affect me as they age.

Also, Philadelphia because it's so fucking sad and beautiful with the family videos and great Neil Young song at the end.

Can't believe I forgot Big Fish. Yeah, that movie got to me at the end.

Also, and I hate to admit it, but what was that Travolta movie where he played a guy with a brain tumor who got telekinetic powers cause of it, but ended up dying from the tumor? At the very end, where its a year later and they're all celebrating his birthday even though he's dead, that choked me up.

[Thommy Melanson]

Kramer Vs. Kramer is like mace in the face.

[Brewtown Andy]

Yep, that final scene at the end really gets me.Honestly, I don't even own the movie because it hits so hard at the end.

[Jerome Gibbons]

Can't believe I forgot Big Fish. Yeah, that movie got to me at the end.

Thanks guys.

[saymama]

I cried for Titanic and 300, and shut up, yes i knew the endings but i'm a girl!!!!

What Dreams May Come was good too!

[Adrian B AWESOME]

So are most Michael Cimino films.

Zing! You zinged him good!

Children of Men.

The 400 Blows.

[Black Roman]

Didn't cry, but god was I depressed (yet captivated)

[Glixy]

Hero. Get me real good. "Our Land"

Last Life in the Universe.

The Sandlot. When's he's going "Benny the Jet Stole home!!!!!" I cry every time.

[Patch]

I second Terms of Endearment.
In several ways. For the mother, losing her daughter, for a parent having to say goodbye to their kids...

Ooof, that's a four-hanky movie.

[Kensington]

Basically, two things make me cry: tragedy/loss and/or triumph/relief.

Backdraft wipes me out every time. From the moment that Kurt Russell and William Baldwin ride in the ambulance together through Rebecca DeMorney receiving the flag and breaking down, I'm a basket case. Then I tear up again a few minutes later in the final moments as William Baldwin finally finds his place in the world.

Also, every Buffy season finale, except perhaps seasons 1 and 4, makes me cry. The Season 2 and Season 5 finales leave me inconsolable.

I also get a little misty-eyed in the final moment of Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom when all the little children rush up to Indy. It's very manipulative, but it's hard won.

[Bryan H]

And when I was a kid, seeing Optimus Prime die in Transformers the Movie turned me into a wailing bitch.

[Phil Hester]

My Life As A Dog by Lasse Hallstrom. Glory by Edward Zwick.

It should be noted that I'm a sentimental sap, so I'm at the mercy of any Capra film.

[The Hodag]

I'm an easy mark.

Any of a number of scenes at the end of Return of the King, but notably "My friends, you bow to no one..." and the farewell on the docks

The ending of The Ghost and Mrs. Muir

The Iron Giant - you know the scene

Near the end of Watership down - Hazel's pact with the Black Rabbit

Spock's death in Wrath of Khan

It's almost always death that gets to me in movies, whether its tragic, heroic or whatever, but on a few rare occasions it can actually be a sense of awe. The launch and space travel sequence in Contact comes to mind.

And that's just for starters... :sad:

[The Hodag]

Oh, and recently, Flight 93. The last ten minutes were among the most brutal moments of film I've ever seen.

Same goes for the Buffy episode, "The Body." To this day I've only ever seen the episode once, and even knowing it probably wouldn't hit me the same way again, I've never revisited it.

[Susan BANthony]

Now that I think about it, there was a movie with Michael Keaton where's he's dying of cancer, and he's making a movie to show his infant son. Can't remember what it's called, but I do remember crying at the theatre.

And if we're talking TV as well, Christopher Eccleston's exit as the Doctor made me tear up.

He deserves more than that for killing United Artists.

[Susan BANthony]

That's the one! I might have to find a copy of it so I can relive the pain, thanks. :)

[Kensington]

And if we're talking TV as well, Christopher Eccleston's exit as the Doctor made me tear up.That didn't make me cry, but the end of Series 2 did.

Oh, yeah, and I also cried when I watched my series 4 finale advanced screener copy and saw Tennant's Doctor regenerate. It was really sad.
Kidding! :twisted:

I "awwww"'d a lot for the series two finish, but never quite got to a cry.

[Brad N.]

Too many to name, I'm a pretty emotional guy and having kids made me even more so. I ALWAYS cry watching Field of Dreams, though, that's a biggie for me. I mean "Hey Dad?" "Yes, son?" "Wanna have a catch?" :(

[SgtPepper]

Return of the King- When Frodo, Bilbo and Gandalf leave for the Undying Lands. That part always got me in the book, and I remember crying in the movie theater

Almost Famous- The ending. It was a mixture of happy and sad tears, probably because I love music so much, and it bums me out that I missed out on that era

Rushmore- The montage with the Stones' "I Am Waiting" and Max visiting his mothers grave usually gets me

The Royal Tenenbaums- The ending, with Van Morrison playing

The Life Aquatic- The funeral scene with The Zombies' "The Way I Feel Inside" that song is haunting.

Darjeeling Limited- The funeral scene in the village, The Kinks' "Strangers" always gets me

Imagine:John Lennon- Towards the end when the footage of the Dakota and the fans crying is shown. The credits with "In My Life" playing is like a dagger in my heart, as that song almost always makes me cry.

Breakfast At Tiffany's and One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest.

I think it's a combination of having a fucked up family, and being manipulated by songs I love.

[Sackhead]

These days movies don't make me cry much. The last time I remember getting misty was when I watched the last half of the sixth season of "Six Feet Under" in one afternoon. That was too much for me. Also, I may have shed a tear when I saw "Finding Neverland" in the theater.

When I was 10, "My Girl" had me blubbering. That one really sticks out.

The last weep I had was not from a movie, but from a blog.

I'm not even a daddy's girl! My dad and I don't get along. She just had to choose either her family or Eric, and she went with the unknown that happened to be her dream.

I cry at Free Willy, but mainly because the real Willy, a whale named Keiko, was housed very close to my little tiny burg of a town, and we got to see him a lot. He loved watching television, cartoons especially.

Then some animal rights people, probably well-intentioned but utterly clueless and dangerous, petitioned to return him to the open water. I stress that he had never BEEN in the open water. More than that, Keiko was, I'm not kidding here, AFRAID OF FISH.

They killed him just as sure as Moby Dick killed Ahab.

Never cried but I got choked up in "Grumpier Old Men", when the Penguin died, during "Last Samurai" at the end when the guy was crying and stopped the guns from shooting the samurai and then they all bowed, during LOTR when the girl stood up and was like "I am No Man" and killed that guy with the hood.

Waking The Dead gets me every goddamn time.

[c. page]

Ooh, I just thought of a great one, that might be a little obscure, but really, REALLY affected my outlook on how to treat people. Anyone hear see Sounder when they were little?

Cried my EYES out.

i think i read the book actually...

[Foolish Mortal]

Too many to name, I'm a pretty emotional guy and having kids made me even more so. I ALWAYS cry watching Field of Dreams, though, that's a biggie for me. I mean "Hey Dad?" "Yes, son?" "Wanna have a catch?" :(
Oh fuck, that is a good one.

Made me think of some older movies that made me ball like a baby. Shane, Spartacus, A Patch of Blue, and Brian's Song. All of those own me.

[Ryan Elliott]

Oh. And while I didn't cry at Pan's Labyrinth, I DID feel a very overwhelming sadness at the end. Like I was GOING to cry, but didn't.

Brian's Song (the only fully accepted male tearjerker. "I love Brian Piccolo." Then it gets really dusty in the room.)

For one that doesn't make any sense. Stranger than Fiction did it to me. I don't know if I was in a mood when I saw it, I may have been feeling incredibly alone when I saw it so maybe that did it. But I remember there being tears.

Brian's Song (the only fully accepted male tearjerker. "I love Brian Piccolo." Then it gets really dusty in the room.)
I'd like to tell you about a guy I know, a friend of mine. His name is Brian Piccolo. And he has the heart of a giant, and that rare form of courage that allows him to kid himself and his opponent, cancer. He has a mental attitude that makes me proud to have a friend who spells out the world 'courage,' 24 hours a day, every day of his life. Now you honor me by giving me this award. But I say to you here now Brian Piccolo is the man who deserves the George S. Halas award. It is mine tonight... and Brian Piccolo's tomorrow. I love Brian Piccolo. And I'd like all of you to love him too. And so tonight, when you hit your knees, please ask God to love him. :cry:

Toy Story 2, during Jessie The Yodelin' Cowgirl's song, "When She Loved Me". Every time.

Wow. Forgot about that one. Yeah.

Iron Giant. A little bit every time.
And I gotta throw some support toward Armageddon. Not fully teared up, but certainly choked up.

But the big winners are:
In America....This one had me bawling through the whole thing. Little Irish girls dealing with pain and tragedy...being strong with their little childish hope and showing their dad how to get through pain...my god..i cried so much was dehydrated when I left. And I was with a really cute girl and that was our first meet-up/date thing!

and

Big Fish. Saw it in TV last week. Didn't even really watch it. Just flipped back and forth. But I saw the funeral part. When Devito gets out of the car with the giant guy....I blurted out "They're friends!" and teared up. That whole last scene has me bawling.

and

Almost Famous. Might have been the circumstances involved. I saw it when it was in theaters with no real crying. But then I bought a copy when I was living in London and it really made me miss my mom.


Honorable mention:
I cried during the episode of Teen Titans where we see the future and the Titans are not friends anymore. When Beast Boy explains why he is in a cage. Tears!

He loves you,

It's extremely rare for a movie to make me cry.

Anyone who doesn't feel that slight crushing feeling in their chest when Hogarth says "I love you" to the Iron Giant at the end, and isn't at least tearing up when the Iron Giant says what he chooses to be, I don't like.

It almost made me sign with DC it did.


Here's a weird one though, I can't talk about the end to the episode of King of the Hill where the Tibetan Monks think Bobby is the reincarantion of a Lama of some kind without choking up. If you know what I'm talking about, it's the part with the mirror.

[dasNdanger]

I honestly can NOT remember what movie actually pushed me over the edge.

I've been near tears plenty of times... all three LOTR movies, City of Angels, United 93, Memento, Titanic, Armageddon, The Matrix Revolutions, The Iron Giant, and, for TV shows, The Body... oh lordy, the Body...

But nothing actually made the dam break.

Not in that medium, at least.

Wait. Didn't I make you cry when you finally got to meet The Great and Intimidating Wolverine Fangirl, only to discover that I'm some squatty middle-aged chick who can't act her age, and not the leggy 20-something blonde everyone thought me to be?

I remember when I was five and leaving the theatre after seeing "E.T." and crying so hard that I couldn't see.

The last time would have been after "Life Is Beautiful", the ending really got me. The worst part though was that they hit the house lights as soon as the credits started to roll! Dam art house theatres! Why can you not hide my shame and let me cry in the dark? Why?

Iron Giant. The little boy in me weeps.

[TRILL, THE CARBON BASED LIFEFORM]

I always get misty eyed at the opening monologue of Love Actually. Seeing friends and family reunite at the airport is one of my favorite things.

“Whenever I get gloomy with the state of the world I think about the arrivals gate at Heathrow Airport. General opinion is starting to make out that we live in a world of hatred and greed. I don’t see that. It seems to me that love is everywhere. Often it’s not particularly dignified or newsworthy, but it’s always there. Fathers and sons, mothers and daughters, husbands and wives, boyfriends, girlfriends, old friends. When the planes hit the twin towers none of the phone calls from the people on board were messages of hate or revenge. They were all messages of love. If you look for it, I’ve got a sneaky feeling you’ll find that love, actually is, all around.”

[dasNdanger]

Well, my ears itch a little. But I'm not sure that's what you were going for...

Nah, I was aiming for your conscience. Not quite sure where that's located on you, so I had to poke around a bit.

Toy Story 2, during Jessie The Yodelin' Cowgirl's song, "When She Loved Me". Every time.

Another great choice. That song is so sad :( When I was younger use to make me think of loved toys long gone or friends that've moved away (taking it almost literally from the film) and now ends of relationships and loved ones that are gone.

Absolutely. I took an Asian History class a few semesters ago, and as one of the assignments, my Professor had us do a review on an Asian movie. I picked Fireflies because I had heard about it prior; after seeing that movie, I was fucked up...one of the most beautifully tragic anti-war statements I've seen...and it was a cartoon.

I'm thinking the last thing I watched that made me all teary-eyed was the scene in the last episode of season four of The Wire where Carver has to take the kid to the group house after he'd made the promise. Hell, that season had several moments that got to me.

Somebody mentioned The Body. Yeah.

[Michael Painter]

Well the first film that really affected me a great deal was after watching the ending of Edward Scissorhands, each time I see it I cry because of how hard it was for society to like Edward.
The scenes with Vincent Price are also noteworthy to me when I see the movie on multiple viewings because I really see a real emotional connection between the Inventor and Edward.
Life is Beautiful also saddens me just for the sake of how well Benignini brought humor and drama into that movie.

[The Hodag]

Glad to see this making the list. Music is a huge part of what pushes my buttons watching movies, and when it comes to wringing emotion it can fail miserably if it's too over-the-top...or work like magic when the composer just nails it. Danny Elfman so nailed it with Edward Scissorhands. It's a cliche, but the only way to describe it is "hauntingly beautiful."

That final scene with Winona in the snow is amazing, and I credit at least half its greatness to Elfman.

The amount of clichés in that movie is what was horrifying. Talk about heavy handed, I can't remember who said it - but an internet critic somewhere said (and I paraphrase to the best of my memory) "Just add a Spear carrying Eskimo, and then the racial clichés circle of life wold be complete."

and that is pretty dead on. Crash is a shallow, manipulative, after school special of a movie.

There's a movie called My Dog Skip that I watched with my wife. I was holding it in up til teh end of the movie, then went in to the bathroom and broke down like I was a vet having a flashback. Man that movie was brutal.

[Akira]

I'm secure enough in my masculenity to abmit to owning a huge list:
Almost Famous-Tiny Dancer scene on the bus.

Chasing Amy-Holden's confession in the rain, and the fight outside of the hockey rink. Both are way to similar to my college years.

Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind-From the moment Joel decides he wants to stop the proceedure.

Good Will Hunting-So many scenes. Will fighting with Skylar, Will crying to Sean, Chuckie talking to Will about his future.

High Fidelity-Too many to mention

The Lake House-The end, when we realize what happened to Alex

Last Samurai- The final battle

Lord of the Rings: Return of the King- Elrond gives Arwen away, and all men kneel to the hobbits

My Girl- Thomas J's funeral

Rocky-The end. Anyone who has seen the movie and not teared up a little at the end is dead inside.

Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope- Han came back

Vanilla Sky-His greatest dream ever was to live forever with her.

And probably a whole lot more that I can't think of right now.

Frequency made me cry...but that's only because of the fact that the movie reminded me a lot of my father (who died when I was 9 years old). The movie on a lot of levels hit too close to home and really hit me in way I didn't expect.

Can't think of any other movies. Usually I don't cry when watching movies.

[ThisSpaceForRent]

My girlfriend cries at movies pretty easily, but the funniest case is Homeward Bound.

The scene at the end where the animals all come home except for one....then he eventually comes over the hill and sees the kid.

ONE TRUE THING, while not a great movie, hit close to home for me and had me tearing as did THE FAMILY STONE and LIFE AS A HOUSE. And I think I shed a tear at the end of the end of GOOD WILL HUNTING, but it was more of a happy sad than a weepy sad.

And ARMAGEDDON of course.

Family Stone got to me too.
The Last Samurai
Eternal Sunshine of a Spotless Mind

[dasNdanger]

So far 30 movies have made me cry. Seriously.

My sister (she's 5 years older) used to cry terrible at movies, and my mom used to tease her...then so did I. So, when I'd watch a movie, I'd fight the tears at all costs. That is, until that fateful day I watched the aforementioned *batteries not included...alone...right after starting the pill. I've had trouble ever since controlling myself when watching movies - I still fight it (my husband prefers I don't because he loves to see me cry at movies), but always lose the battle if I'm alone.

Fellowship of the Ring: when Gandalf goes down with the Balrog and the rest of the fellowship escapes out of Moria, if I were a Goddamned Sissy, I'd cry then. But, since I'm not, I only well up and get a lump in my throat. But it's a damned powerful scene for me.

I know this isn't a movie, but the last 15 minutes of Six Feet Under make me weep like an old woman every single time I watch it. Every. Single. Time.

[Evan the Shaggy]

Oh and like half of Braveheart.

[Akira]

An Imitation of Life and Mississippi. It's an angry crying though. I no longer watch either of those movies because they piss me off so much.

Yeah, Imitation of Life is fucked up.

Oh and Dragon: The Bruce Lee Story. At the end when he tells her that he Loves her and then she has the voice over about his death. That part gets me. And when Bruce goes and vists her mom and she brings up how there babies wouldn't have a race because they wouldn't be chinese or white. That part hits home for me because I'm a halfer.

[Masculine Todd]

Garden State and Once, that's all I can think of. I'm sure there's been more.

[Sean Jackson]

Been there, done that Gail.
