What film last made you cry?

I watched for the first time last night The Green Mile (I know. I know. It’s an oldie and it’s a shame I had never seen it before)

I sort of knew the storyline, not the whole lot, but enough to know that I would cry. I did not expect to be a sobbing mess though. I still have a headache this morning from crying last night.

I don’t think I can watch it again. Amazing film. Amazingly well done but what a tear jerker

The boy in the woods - true story of a boy who survived nearly a year loving in the woods in occupied (modern day Ukraine). Profoundly moving at the end in particular.

Hachi: A Dog's Tale

True story

Not just me, but my lovely man absolutely refuses to ever watch this film again.

He watches many gruesome programs, and true life stories of how terribly some people treat each other, but when it comes to dogs, well he was so affected by the loyalty of that dog.

Can't remember the last film i watched but previous ones ive watched:

Marley and Me makes me go from laughing for the first hour to properly SOBBING. As soon as he says "you're getting old fella" i start and it continues to the end. Because it reminds me of seeing much loved pets grow old with the inevitable ending. Just typing that was close to setting me off

Watched the notebook once and bawled through most of it as soon as I realised who the story was about

Up i cry at the start of

I won't watch the likes of watership down/Bambi etc as i know what will happen (tears). War Horse i cried through in the cinema.

I even ugly cried at the ending of a video game OH was playing 😂 proper ugly crying i think he was shocked at how many tears came! Fault in our stars was the first time he saw me cry at something. Me before you i cried in the cinema.

Toy Story 3. Watched it again at Christmas, and the incinerator scene reduced me to a sobbing mess as it does every damned time.

Oh I forgot that one, but it's the scene at the end when he's with Bonnie and names each toy individually and recounts his adventures with them, i sob. Lots.

Two that I saw recently :

Unbroken

Wild Robot

Two very different types of films though.

BigDahliaFan · 01/02/2025 18:23

The opening montage of Up. It’s so beautifully done.

None. My heart is like a lump of coal.

I had been chopping onions right before Dumbo, so it's a pure coincidence Wink

Anything with Adam Sandler 😀
I know it's not the point of the thread.. couldn't resist.

PS I love you - it was on last night

EdithStourton · 01/02/2025 20:05

I rewatched Schindler's List a while ago.
I will not be watching it again for a good few years.

FrangipaniBlue · 01/02/2025 22:01

The last one to properly make me ugly cry was Toy Story 4!

I was totally unprepared for the ending and it broke me, I felt I needed to lay down in a dark room

Now whenever I hear the theme song, no
matter which of the films it is, I get a lump in my chest.

Sidebeforeself · 01/02/2025 22:04

Toy Story 3..left the cinema with a severe sore throat because I was swallowing back my tears.

Edward Scissorhands

The Champ

Can never watch any of those again

Puppupandaway · 03/02/2025 19:34

Does anyone else cry when Bing Bong sacrifices himself in Inside Out??? Gets me every.single.time!

RoundSquareWithTriangles · 22/02/2025 23:20

The Wild Robot - I cried in several parts, at the cinema.
