Films that make you cry.....

[wrinklytum]

Watched "Gilbert Grape" tonight and it made me cry [SHOCK] Silly sod that I am.Though not a major fan of Leonardo Di Caprio I thought his portrayal of a child with Learning disabilities was excellent in this.Of course the marvellous Johnny Depp is delicious in most things.Anyhow,it got me thinking,what are your top movies to have a good old blub to.

I'll add

E.T.(I wept buckets throughout)
Fried Green Tomatoes At The Whistlestop Cafe(When the main characters older brother dies,and her best friend dies)
Shawshank Redemption (When he plays the operatic bit across the prison speaker system)

There are loads more,I'm sure..

[DeathbyDora]

Ooh shit, I'm watching Out of Africa as I type..who dies???

Up Close and Personal, the boots with the red laces
Platoon, the horrid Willem Defoe shooting scene
That one about Kevin Bacon escorting a dead marine home to his family, Taking Chance I think it's called

Having said that, I'm pg at the moment and cried at Extreme Makeover Home Edition the other day....

[tegan]

city of angels

[Sunshinemummy]

Out of Africa. First time I watched it I came into the room DP was sitting in and he thought someone in my family had died I was sobbing so much. It took me ages to calm down enough to explain.

[AstronomyDomine]

my fault - I was looking for something else and this came up; thought it was the one I was looking for and posted. Sorry

[GetOrfMoiLand]

Why has this old thread been resurrected?

I just read through it, thought fuck me, I have already posted on this - then looked at the date, last Year^.

There's a bit in Return of the Jedi that always gets me. During a big battle scene, one of the Ewoks is hit and falls down dead. There's another Ewok with him and he tries to make him get up and realises he is dead and makes this sad sound Gets me every single time (DP is a Star Wars freak, I've seen it a lot). DP thinks it's hilarious that I cry at a dead Ewok so always watches me during that bit. He's also worked out that I'll cry if he even describes that scene.

Oh and I sobbed like a baby during Whale Rider.

[MeAndMyMonkey]

Meant to add that we got Schindlers List out on lovefilm and were both too wussy to watch it so sent it back !

[MeAndMyMonkey]

City of God
Au Revoir les Enfants
Railway Children (natch)
Cinema Paradiso
Mamma Mia is strangely emotional too!

DP had to be dragged blubbing from a cinema in Rome after watching Stepmom! He is an even bigger cinema wuss than me .

[AstronomyDomine]

No apostrophe needed in gorillas - just in case GrammerPolice is reading

[AstronomyDomine]

My sister thinks I'm a steel-skinned heartless bitch because I dont cry at these films - E.T? Nope. Steel Magnolias? Nope. It's A Wonderful Life? Not even a lip tremour which led to her response (shouted) What, not when he's being slapped and his ear bleeds and he's bawling?? Heartless cow - you're no sister of mine !!

But then I bawl every fucking time the choir sings their first song in Sister Act. It's not sad at all, but Mary Patrick's voice just sets me off!!!
Then there's Gorilla's in the Mist.

But the worst/best film for making me cry is Pay It Forward. OMG!! The outcome for Trevor and that last scene ... tears, shoulder shakes, snot, the works.

[wooga]

I watched The Notebook last night and don't think I've cried that much at a film before-I was sobbing away!!

Just a shame that channel 4 did so many ad breaks during it.

[winnie01]

[lovecat]

Ohh, Into the West is such a tearjerker...

Sound of Music

Pan's Labyrinth

Dumbo (where his mum sings 'Baby of Mine' - waaah!)

Celia (the bit where she gets to the quarantine station and finds her rabbit dead - omg I was crying so much I could barely see...)

Kill Bill - that bit where she wakes up at the start and realises she's not pregnant any more and starts screaming - I find that really upsetting

Gallipoli

Blade Runner when Roy Batty gives his wonderful speech 'I've seen things you people wouldn't believe...' by the time he says 'Time to die' I'm in bits!

Fantasia 2000 - the Rhapsody in Blue bit, where the little girl just wants to be with her parents and then finally gets them together at the very end - I had to hide my face in the cinema I was crying so much...
