Movies that make you ugly cry...

[Raffles1981]

So there is a thread about TV characters and it got me thinking. So AIBU to ask what movie really makes you cry?
The Green Mile. The moment when Tom Hanks says "We love you. Can you feel that?"

Ooooh, and Meet Joe Black

I Am Sam

Oh god... I cried and then I cried and then I cried some more

There's a film with Emma Thompson in it, no idea what it's called, maybe someone will know? She's a teacher with cancer. It came on tv one night and DH& I started watching with no idea what it was about - oh my goodness, we both properly sobbed, it was devastating. Anyone seen it?
Also Schindler's list, Up and I won't watch sad animal films at all

Crumb502, I called it... Shelby

Marley and me ! I went to the cinima on a first date ... I had snot and tears out of every where !
I didn't get a second date 😂

I am a hard hearted soul. But last night I went to see Mamma Mia 2 and had tears streaming for a good chunk of it! (No spoilers as it’s just out!)

The "Slipping Through my Fingers" scene in Mamma Mia and the end of the new Mamma Mia.
Marley and Me
Steel Magnolias - especially when the bloke comes home to find Shelby dead and the kid is hysterical and the bit at the funeral when Sally Field's character is ranting.

Dangerous Minds

Cocoon- where the chap is in the pool trying to bring his wife back to life

Ghost
Marley and me
Gladiator
Green mile
Deathly hallows part 1 and 2
Beaches

There’s loads more too but I can’t think at this time in the morning.

Probably every film that could make you slightly sad I will cry. I don't go to the pics to see films that might be sad, coco was a big mistake, my 9 year old son was howling at it aswell.

Dumbo
Inside out

Yes my son (8)also cries at films.

I love it! Shows empathy and openness. Good sign for a man I’d say. Both my beloved dad and my ex (we are on very good terms) also fine to openly cry at films and I think it’s brilliamt

The Railway Children - I’m not even big fan of the film but if I even see a clip of that last scene (Daddy, my Daddy!) I cry like a lunatic.

One flew over the cuckoos nest. Cried loads at the end

Up - opening scene

Dumbo

Shadowlands. I was a blubbering wreck.

Yes @baublegirl454 ! The Emma Thompson film is called Wit. I remember sobbing through that, hadn't thought about it in ages. End of Shawshank Redemption also gets me every time. Also Cinema Paradiso.

Another vote for Shadowlands. I saw it too soon after my DH died, and the scene shot from behind them, where they’re sitting in front of the Narnia wardrobe and the kid tells Anthony Hopkins that he misses his recently deceased mum, absolutely finished me.

Wuthering Heights when Laurence Oliver begs Cathy who has just died to haunt him, drive him mad but never leave him. Boo hooo!

Marley and me
Atonement- the war scenes and when you find out the story was fiction (within the film) and the two main characters didn't have a happy ever after.
The Help - when the maid tells the little girl she is good and kind and then has to leave her - heart breaking.
Brokeback mountain
Time travellers wife - cried uncontrollably through whole film in front of friends who were less moved - embarrassing!

I am not a dog person, but Marley and Me just got to me.

I was crying long before the damn thing died, as I knew what was coming.

Will never watch that film again.

I won't even watch schindlers list or the boy in the stripped pyjamas.

Shadowlands. Story of CS Lewis meeting and marrying his wife (late in life) and then her developing a terminal illness.

Me Before You had me sobbing, thankfully we watched it at home. Seven Pounds on the other hand we watched at the cinema and I was still crying when we went to get dinner!
