Christopher Reeve's Somewhere in Time, always makes me bawl.
The Elephant Man - I ugly cry.
Breaking the Waves - broke me!

Yes a chance meeting on a train in New York.

I’ve just looked it up and this definitely looks like my type of film!

The Passion of Joan of Arc.

Of course, @user1492757084 , Dances With Wolves, the last ten minutes, thank you for the reminder.

Seconding this, I watched it on a plane thinking it would be a heartwarming movie about a talking tree.
It is not, I was ugly crying on a plane full of strangers.

Also
The Book Thief
Watership Down

I Kill Giants
Never Let Me Go
The Florida Project
