I know it's been out for AGGGGGGGESS but I watched P.S. I Love You the other night with the luscious Gerard Butler in it...I lost my husband in 2013 and it just made me go all slushy inside...beautiful film.

Definitely Truly Madly Deeply - I sob my heart out every time I watch it - plus Alan Rickman and Juliet Stevenson are fantastic actors.

One day
I just sobbed and sobbed
(not to be mistaken with one fine day)

The pursuit of happyness - cried my eyes out watching it recently.

Toy Story 3 - I had to leave the room the first time I watched it, hadn't cried like that at a film since I was a child.

And for a truly heartbreaking watch, Dear Zachary: A Letter to a Son About His Father.

Brief encounter when they are saying their final goodbye and are interrupted by that awful woman. And then he just touches her on the shoulder...and leaves.

Imitation Of Life

MilesHuntsWig · 22/02/2015 23:25

The beginning of "Up" (I was pregnant and sobbed!) and the original little mermaid cartoon (not the Disney one with the happy ending).

The Wedding singer makes me cry because it's so darned nice.

Life is beautiful.
Stunning, uplifting, devastating in one film. I bawled and bawled.
Forrest Gump gets me every time too, also the curious case of Benjamin button. :(

WindMeUpAndLetMeGo · 22/02/2015 23:39

Beaches with Bette Midler,Step Mom with Susan Sarandon/Julia Roberts and City Of Angels with Nick Cage/Meg Ryan - all guaranteed to need tissues

Life is beautiful. Amazing film.

I remember beaches and steel magnolias also making me cry.

And The Champ "don't die Champ, don't die".
