Movies that make you cry.

Re: Movies you have cried watching

Armageddon always gets to me at the end.

Theres others I'm sure but none that jump out at me.

TV show wise, I remember out right bawling in the episode of ER when Anthony Edwards character died, but my great aunt was going through the exact same thing at the time, so not sure it counts.

My Dog Skip. Hit me so hard that now I pre-screen movies just to make sure they aren't tearjerkers. If they are... I don't watch them! Aint going through that again!
 
Re: Movies you have cried watching

Return of the King - all of it.
Up - the beginning...duh.
AI <---I didn't realize how DEPRESSING that movie is until I saw it on tv..GOOD GOD. I hadn't cried that hard in a long time.
The Fountain

Band of Brothers when they first find the victims in the concentration camp.

The only part of a movie that has ever, and still does, make my eyes well up, is in Armageddon, when Grace is saying good-bye to Harry over the video link-up towards the end.

I chalk that down to the fact that I have a daughter and therefore relate to it in a pretty intense way :cry

I realised last night there is another one.


Star Trek Voyager, episode "Virtuoso", where the Doctor was about to leave Voyager because an alien race found his singing to be unique and he is flooded with fan mail etc.

At the end, after the Doc gives a very touching rendition of a Neopolitan ballard (Puccini's Rondine al Nido) but is very quickly cast aside by the aliens who created a superior singing hologram, and the Doc is devasted, 7 of 9 walks up to him and gives him a fan mail letter pad. He asks her to read it to him.


7 of 9 - "Dear Doctor: I regret that your last performance was not as successful as you'd hoped. There are still those who appreciate your unique talents and admire you as an individual. I'll always consider myself your loyal fan."

Doctor: "Who is it from?"

7 of 9 - "It's signed, 'Seven of Nine, Tertiary Adjunct of Unimatrix Zero-One.'"


Always makes my eyes well up :cry

There sure is a lot of estrogen flowing in this thread. Y'all are a bunch of pansies. :lol

For me, just two films:

1) Paths of Glory (when the German girl sings)
2) Field of Dreams (the catch)

The Wook
 
Apollo 13

Two moments get me...

1. When Marilyn says, "If anyone has a problem with that, they can take it up with my husband - he'll be home on Friday!"

2. When Lovell finally responds following the LOS/blackout, and the capsule splashes down.
 
I got that movie for the Mrs when it came out on DVD.

It's still in the cellophane wrapper.

I won't touch it either.
 
lol this thread! *****..

Ya like alot of you, since I became a dad, I can get emotional alot easier with some of these movies.

Just off the top of my head:

Toy Story 3 ending - every time.


My 4 year old went through a Toy Story phase recently, so Part 3 got alot of play.. OMG.

After the first few couple of times I just started to have to leave the room.
 
New one for the list, "Real Steel".

Sure, I realize I'm being manipulated. The movie not only doesn't avoid cliches, it seeks out and embraces them.

I think Atom is one of the best-designed robots we've seen in a long time (he's also the only robot in the movie without a "face"). There's a lot of emotion there for something that is simply supposed to be a piece of hardware. The long scene where he and the kid just stare at each other.... Wow. Building practical effects really paid off in this one.
 
I too seem to have gotten more emotional the older I get (and I'm only still, just barely, in my first quarter of a century). A Lot of the moves I totally agree with. I finally got to what, page 6? Before I said, 'yeah, something like 8 or 9 out of ten of these I agree with'.

Here's one that I'm sure that isn't in the list: "Goodbye, Farewell, Amen." More of a wistful cry on my part really.

There is a actually a TV piece that really hit me. It's in a TV show that finished airing back in '06 after its seven years called The West Wing. It was created by Aaron Sorkin who also helped write The American President as a way to sort of tell what didn't get told in the movie. Anyway, it is the last I think 5 minutes or so of the Christmas episode from the first Season, entitled "In Excelsis Deo". There's a bit of a montage that's beautifully done, with 'Little Drummer Boy', a song I can't not cry at, playing in the background. Part of the montage is bits and pieces of a military funeral, again, I can't not cry during funerals. Two punches for a sure leaky faucet.
 
Not many movies come to mind but Dolphin Tale did.So did the Free Willy Movies. (R.I.P. Keiko.)
I've found that i've become alot more emotional since being in love and with my husband.
 
The movie Red Dog. If you get a chance to see it, it is a fantastic film and is one movie that chokes me up towards the end.
 
The first movie that made me cry was Hook.

***possible spoiler for those who haven't seen it?***

It was during the part where Peter passed on the leadership of the lost boys to Thud Butt. I was in tears when he raised the sword.

Does it bother you when they remake one of your favorite movies? Why?
