Good films to 'ugly cry' to

[apple1992]

There is something really cathartic about a good, sad film.

Any recommendations?

Steel magnolias, when sally field runs and sweeps up her grandson

Also - Life is Beautiful or Pan's Labrynth. I still feel a bit traumatised by that film.

Imitation of life. The funeral scene. I've sobbed at some of those previously mentioned, but never as much as I have at this.

The theory of everything. I don't cry at films. I sobbed all through this!

I forgot about Armageddon. I don't even need to see the film. That Aerosmith song sets me off.

The Killing Fields. Up. Amour.

PS I love you
Beaches
Steel Magnolias
My Sisters Keeper
Broke back Mountain
Seven Pounds

Japanese Story
Red Road - takes a while to get there but god, I howled

Most of the films that choke me up have already been mentioned but I recently watched 12 years a Slave, made me cry a few times.

The Pianist.

Gattaca.

Remains of the Day

Oldies- An Inspector Calls (1954 version), A Brief Encounter... oh, too many to list.

Page 3 and no original Railway Children ?? "Daddy....my Daddy!"

Imitation of life, yes!!!
Who will love my children, cry now if I hear the music.

Beaches and Precious.

P.s. i love you

The other sister. First film I watched that made me cry

Oh yes to Who a Will Love My Children. This is available to watch on YouTube. Ann-margret is superb.

Age of Adeline and city of angels have me sobbing all the way through.

Gosh, the only ones I've ever cried at are:
Dead Poet's Society
The Color Purple
Life is Beautiful
Up

Oh and Marley and Me.

Tbh allthose early 80s true movies usually ended in ugly crying used to stay at my friends most saturdays and we would rent a weepyvideo

I pretty much cry at everything so all of those mentioned for me! However DD is tough as old boots but when we watched Marley & Me I've never seen such ugly crying - she was absolutely hysterical.

Green Mile. Lots of bits but esp when he gets to watch Top Hat.

End of Toy Story 3: "I have to go away now..."

Even the tune from Up makes me feel wobbly.

And I saw Marley and Me at the cinema. Silence until someone did a big sob then we all let it out.

The Constant Gardener
A Beautiful Mind
The Theory of Everything
