I am going on Monday, was already worried about being upset due to what I read in today's paper.

Should I take issues?!

notnowbernard · 10/10/2009 20:18

It will leave you with issues

Seriously, though, take tissues

It's lovely

Lulumama · 10/10/2009 20:24

my eyes were a tiny bit leaky at certain parts, i have to say !

mummyloveslucy · 10/10/2009 20:27

It was a lovely film my 4 year old daughter said "look it's grandad." Bless her.
I did feel a lump in my throught on several occasions I must say.
We will definatly be buying that one.

notnowbernard · 10/10/2009 20:50

Deborah Moggach...?

DD1 also thought Carl looked like my Grandad

They all thought I was nuts though

why is it so sad?

AitchTwoToTangOh · 10/10/2009 21:08

she was saying how she blubbed her way through it on the radio tonight.

charmander · 10/10/2009 21:12

it was my 3 year old's first time to a cinema today to see it.
i was a bit tearful in places.
ds3, when asked if he would go again said yes he would see the next one, called "down".

StopTalkingAndEatYourDinner · 10/10/2009 21:14

just got back from taking DD to this, i was blubbing into her hair, she thought i was barking (she is 4) had one of those really painful lumps in my throat for ages as I was trying to hold it together. It was the bit with the photographs in the book that sent me over the edge

WartoScreamo · 10/10/2009 21:17

My company have rented the cinema for the kid's Xmas do next month! I should take plenty of hankies then?

I will have to watch it in French though.
Will the blubness survive the translation?

bigchris · 10/10/2009 21:17

oh yes dh was a bit weepy, lol

teamcullen · 10/10/2009 21:21

definatly the 20th century Bambi. Lovely film. I had a few tears. Did everybody see it in 3D

notnowbernard · 10/10/2009 22:07

Will definitely survive translation, the first bit I blubbed at was non-verbal (the montage of their lives together)

I am not Deborah though

Don't want to spoil it for those who haven't seenit yet, so won't list all the bits I wept through

the bit where she could not have a family had me

notnowbernard · 10/10/2009 23:25

When he finally 'let go'...

That finished me off

The bit at the end with the badge made me well up.

paisleyleaf · 11/10/2009 20:14

I'm really looking forward to seeing it. And I see some of you have taken 3 and 4 year olds. My DD's 5. It's okay for younger children then?

Hulababy · 11/10/2009 20:29

Eeek. DD is 7y and gets really into any film she watches. Is she going to cope with this film? She asked to see it after the trailers, but not I am not sure.

islandofsodor · 11/10/2009 20:48

Dd saw it today and she is normally very sensitive. She went for a friend's birthday and apparently found it a little scary/sad in places but was fine and loved the film.

She is just (last week) 8.

islandofsodor · 11/10/2009 20:50

It was 3 D too which I would have been eek at if I had known.

Have just been to see and cried like a fool in several places; esp. at the infertility scene A boy of about 9 or 10 started blubbing in his Dad's arms when the old man finally started reading the 'stuff I'm going to do' section of his wife's adventure book. But I could see he was enraptured by the whole thing.

It was a wonderful film
