To ask you for the scenes in films that always make you blub?

[MaybeIWillFuckOffThen]

I've just been reduced to a puddle by the bit in Hunger Games where Katniss volunteers for Prim - you can feel both their panic for each other and it just gets me! gulp Reminds me of the bit in Empire of the Sun when Jamie is separated from his parents in the mob 😭 I feel like this sort of scene hits me harder since having my kids.

Call me bonkers but i love a good film cry, I find it really cathartic. So hit me! Any scene from any film that makes you ugly cry :)

When Hillary dies in Beaches
When Billy dies in The Champ
When Sam leaves this world for the next and says"you take the love with you" managed to make it from my cinema seat to the car before bawling my eyes out 😄

A little princess - when the dad remembers who she is a Shouts of her in the rain and she runs back to him.

Titanic - the elderly couple cuddling on their bed as it sinks and the mum reading to her children.

Harry Potter - Dobbys death.

Goodnight Mr.Tom - when William learns of Zacs death.

Marley and Me - When Colleen gives Marley her stuffed toy to make him feel better. And when he dies.

Fox and the Hound - when the old lady leaves Tod in the wildlife reserve.

And not a film, but a stage musical, Wicked - during the song 'For good'

😭😭😭😭

Armageddon, when Liv Tyler realised her dad is about to die. "That's my father up there" 😭

Reign over me
When Adam Sandler opens up to Don Cheadle about what happened to his family in 9/11

Neverending Story - when Artax sinks in to the swamp of sadness

Bridge to Terabithia - when they tell Jesse that Leslie died

@TheOceanClub

And Independence Day when the US president is giving the speech before that one final battle.

Also "Tell my children I love them"

I also find kids films make me well up. The start of UP obviously. But also Big Hero 6 when he's shouting for his brother who runs back into the fire ... omg howling!

When ET dies.
When The Champ dies.
Almost all of Who Will Love My Children?

I always cry absolute buckets at the end of West Side Story when Tony is killed and Maria cries "Don't you touch him!" then sobs over his body.

I was coming on to say A little princess. I'm always in floods of tears at that part 😭

The end of "A Time to Kill". THAT SPEECH.

Brokeback Mountain, when Ennis finds the two shirts in the closet.

I've never cried at a film — I enjoy films, but don't get emotionally involved that way — but I have a question, if there's anyone who does cry at films and is willing to answer:

Presumably you're crying because the film has made you feel a strong emotion, and often that emotion seems to be sadness… it seems like, for a lot of people, that's a good thing about the film/a reason to watch it/something that you sometimes seek in a film. What is it about being made to feel so sad that you cry that you want to seek out?

I do cry at some music, and deliberately listen to music I know will have that effect on me, but it's not crying from sadness, more intensity or overwhelm after experiencing waves of frissons/shivers for long periods of times. I wouldn't want to feel sad, and if it felt that way I wouldn't do it.

Can someone explain for me? It's a genuine question — I want to understand why it is people value being made so sad by something in a film that they cry (I know that not all the examples people are giving are things that make you cry through sadness, but a lot of them are). If it helps to understand why I'm asking and to assure that this is a genuine question, I have an ASD diagnosis and don't always react to things in the same way others do, or understand their reactions.

The bit in Armageddon where Liv Tyler has to say goodbye to Bruce Willis on the screen because he's staying on the asteroid to save the world instead of coming home 😭

Also I don't remember which specific bit, but that film Lion about the little Indian boy who gets lost on a train 😭😭😭

I remember watching a film on TV with my niece when she was about 6 and it was about a talking bird. I think it was "Paulie". He's taken away from the little girl he loves and as he's driven away, my niece and I were hysterical.

I am not a crier, but the scene where Emma Thompson discovers her husband's infidelity in Love Actually gets me every single time.
I guess some things are too close to the bone. And it's beautifully done.

And I can't watch Dumbo.

Oldie but my DH loves it 'somewhere in time' with Christopher reeves.

Goose dying in top gun.

Tarzan, the Disney version...and Phil Collins song 'you'll be in my heart'...lump in my throat just thinking about that song..

Toy story 3...in fact most Disney or pixar films get me, everytime...

I cry at the drop of a hat these days....equally so at happy scenes...not just the sad ones. The two films I cried the most at ....proper ugly crying , mascara in rivers down my face....were Sophies Choice and The Passion of the Christ. The bit in Sophies Choice where you find out what her choice was...I was practically hysterical. The Passion of the Christ surprised me as I'm not remotely religious but I was in floods....the bit where Jesus was carrying the cross through the streets and his mother was wiping his blood off the ground. I was hyperventilating! I think it's a good idea for me not to wear mascara when watching a film....that stuff stings !

Old Yeller,
Lassie come home,
Marley and me,
Anything with a dog and when Charlotte dies in Charlotte's Web.

The Bridges of Madison County is a cry fest. Cried 7 times, I had to get a flannel as tissue wasn't enough! 😭😭😭

Hachi A Dogs Tale with Richard Gere..always gets me.

I don’t cry but Ronnie dying in King Creole chokes me up every time.

"That'll do pig, that'll do" 🐷😭

Also the sequence in grave of the fire flies where it shows what Setsuko got up to when Seita wasn’t there
just her playing and trying to be a normal child 😭😭😭

Steel magnolias funeral scene.
My god I sob every time!
