Muriel's Wedding.
Her poor mum 😭😭😭
They're all such shits to her.
The middle part of the film has me in pieces 💔

I cannot believe this is meant to be a comedy!!

-E.T. (especially when Elliott's brother is looking for E.T. and spots him lying unconscious next to the river and also when E.T. cries out for Elliott on the bathroom floor when Elliot's mum carries him away).
-Dot and the Kangaroo
-The Plague Dogs (I could never watch that film again)
-The Elephant Man
-When the Wind Blows
-The Snowman
-Kes
-Mask (the one starring Cher and Eric Stoltz)
-The Champ
-Rocky - when Apollo Creed and Micky die

Who will love my children
( I’m showing my age now 😂)

OMG.....this one reduces me to uncontrollable sobs every time and Stepmom.

Isabel: You know every story, every wound, every memory. Their whole life's happiness is wrapped up in you... every single second. Don't you get it? Look down the road to her wedding. I'm in a room alone with her, fixing her veil, fluffing her dress, telling her no woman has ever looked so beautiful. And my fear is she'll be thinking, "I wish my mom was here."
Jackie Harrison: And mine is... she won't.

😭😭😭😭😭

I thought I'd be the first to say 'Up' but see someone else too.
The scene's of them growing old and him being left alone, just wreck both of us.

All of us strangers ending though we saw it coming.

Have you seen the Video of this with Westlife's "I Wanna Grow Old With You"

I think it is called Homeward bound. A siamese cat and two dogs are separated from their owners when they move and it is basically the animals adventures (yes I am tearing up as I type this!!). Then at the end (oh thanks very much, here I am working in reception in floods of tears!) the cat arrives home, then one of the dogs and you think (oh this is bloody embarrassing, I am going to bawl in a minute!!!) that the older dog had not made it, in fact the boy whose dog it is says as much!

I tried to tell my SIL about the movie 3 times and bawled. She told me to give up in the end!!

Armageddon. I first watched it in the cinema and I was a mess!

To be fair, I cry at lots of films and many of them it isn't pretty 😂

Any kind of death gets me.
