I cried when I watched Rocky for the first time. I also turn into a sobbing bucket of tears whenever I watch The Patriot with Mel Gibson, particularly when he goes back to see his kids and his youngest daughter refuses to speak to him, and then when he goes to leave and she starts screaming for him to come back and don't go...oh my I'm starting to lose it just thinking about it

ANYWAY, if we want to go with songs too, shortly after my divorce I could not listen to Poison and Wine by Civil Wars without turning into a blubbering fool, and yet I just couldn't stop listening to it. It's like crack for divorced people.

Passion of Christ- especially the scene where Mary is holding her dead son's frail tortured body as she stares off into the distance. It ALMOST looks like she is starring at the audience that is watching the movie. Connecting her grief and tears, her heartbreak with the viewers.

Jane Eyre- I bawled SO HARD at the beginning of the movie when she is running away through the fields at night, in the cold rain, falling over, close to death trying to get away.

Schindler's List- I bawled and felt sick to my stomach for the rest of the night. Hard to shake what I saw and felt.
I'm with you on Schindler's List - especially when the "Schindler's Juden" pounded out a gold ring and gave it to him. He then began to count souls he could have saved when what he was really doing was counting his own sins. That was a very powerful scene.

Taking Chance was another movie that tore me up.

Fess up. :) Which tv/movie scenes made you cry?

Buckets during Passion of the Christ, of course..


Also...

Shane
Courageous (about every 5 minutes)
When Littlefoot's mom died in Land Before Time
When Bambi's dad died
When Simba's dad died
Homeward Bound
Secondhand Lions
When Opie killed the bird with his slingshot
When the baby died on the bus in MASH

I'm sure there are a lot more.

I ain't no Leonard Maltin but I gotta say, I'm a little disappointed in things that make you cry. However, one of your choices was a favorite - when Opie shot the bird with the sling shot. I don't remember the specifics, but the funniest scene was with Barney claiming he could understand bird language. He went into this whole thing where he'd whistle something and then explain what it meant - "whistle whistle whistle" - here comes a cat!" and Opie believed him. Well later on, Opie was studying on whether to let the little birds go and asked his dad how he could know for sure that letting them go was the right thing to do. Andy told him (with Barney standing nearby) something like "well, I tell you what - why don't you ask Tweetie. Tweetie can tell Petey, Petey can tell Nod, Nod can tell Barney and Barney can tell you". (Barney didn't think it was funny) but I was dying.

Anyway, about two years ago after at least my whole thoughtful life, I finally got the chance to use that line - something I'd been wanting to do forever. A friend of mine's GF claimed she could see ghosts. She claimed one was in her house and she named it Frank or something weird and also claimed that it would talk with her on occasion or say things. Anyway, she also claimed her grandmother's spirit was there and her great aunt and a few others. Well, one time she was talking about making some cookies or cakes or something and wished she had her grandmothers recipe because those were the best cookies ever.....

This was my opening. I said - "well, not all is lost. Your grandmother could tell your aunt how to make them, your Aunt could tell Frank and Frank could tell you". (She didn't think it was funny either).

I always cry when watching sad movies. The last one that made my cry was Song for Marion (a highly recommended movie!)

I would list all the movies but there's too many for me to remember. I'm a cryer in movies, unfortunately. And TV shows. And life.

I really don't like it, though I'm doing better at controlling myself, but it makes my throat feel tight and uncomfortable. I mean, I don't cry at everything, but my heart can get touched easily and apparently my eyes want to show it. :rolleyes:

I cried during P.S. I Love You.
Any crime scene type show where kids get hurt makes me cry.
Watching Seven Pounds.
The Pursuit of Happiness.
Several episodes of M*A*S*H.- particularly one of the Christmas ones, when Charles anonymously give the fancy chocolate bars to the orphanage.

I dunno, I cry at stuff.

If he was anything like his character on the show, he was a very good man. RIP

So odd to see this thread,as I was just talking about this the other day with someone...crying over thing's/films..etc...
(are you tapping my electronic devices Julz? lol)


The end of Shindler's List where the survivors and relatives are all placing a stone on the gravestone of him...seeing all that broke my heart...as if the part where in the film itself where he went on about "could have done more"...yeah destroyed me upon 1st viewing.

I am Legend...where Will Smith's dog get's bitten by the infected "vampire" dogs & then he is holding her in his arms down in his laboratory waiting for her to change,and he has to break her neck & kill her...kill his ONLY companion & significant tie & link to his now dead wife & daughter. I still to this day will not watch that scene again because it reminds me of when I had to have my dog put down. I still feel a bit sick even sharing that now.


The episode of BTVS where she comes home & finds her Mother dead.

(no one cries as good & as believable as Sarah Michelle Gellar)

Ugh..I dunno..now...I wouldn't say I full on cry my eyes out...but ummm yeah *acts all manly*...I get might get "emotional" now & then.

* backs slowly out of thread with what remains of his dignity *

That's how I felt with Hachi. It reminded me of when my dog Promise died, and my dog Mocha's getting up there, too. It was just too much.

I guess I would have to post scenes that came VERY close to making me cry.

When Eve repairs Wall-E, and it appears his programming has been wiped.

Voices of a Distant Star

When Faye runs out of things she can say to Spike and all she can do is fire her gun to express her turmoil.

Oh, and I had a dream last night where I wrecked the Miata again. I almost cried in the dream.

I cried when I watched the Passion of the Christ, of course, but I cried through the whole thing and bawled when Mary remembered him as a child.

I cried during Free Willy when he jumped over the wall to freedom.

Old Yeller I don't think I need to explain that one.

Terms of Endearment, when Shirley McClain yelled at the nurses to give her daughter medicine.

Forest Gump when Jenny died.

I cried, when Curt Russel in that futuristic military movie, was thrown in the trash heap, and was sent off and dumped on the junk planet!
