Films that make you cry....

[Topmansmithy]

It's weird how some films still make me blubber - despite the fact I have seen the film before and I know whats going to happen :

The Green Mile
Titanic
Wizard od oz - when dorothy goes back home

Just wondering what films get you going...

 

[silverbirch]

Know what you mean @Topmansmithy. BEACHES does it for me, right at the very end when the song by Bette Midler starts..

 

[xAoifex]

Beaches, every time!
Steel Magnolias
Marley and Me

Gets me every time; especially now I have a daughter.

I remember going to see The Deer Hunter when it first came out, and being surrounded by people in tears at the end. I was unmoved, though it is undeniably a very powerful film.

ah yes - when the dad comes home - very moving.

Also E.T - when ET says goodbye to elliott

 

[Topmansmithy]

it's all coming back slowly:

Awakenings - leonard (played by robert de niro ) has his last dance with his girlfriend.
Schindlers list - at the end when the survivors place stones on his gravestone

Ghost ... Demi Moore / Patrick Swayze

Ghost ... Demi Moore / Patrick Swayze

Good choice - demi certainly knew how to cry in that one.

Just remembered the Colour Purple - when the sisters get reunited at the end.

Saving Private Ryan

One of the best and most powerful films ever made, the end always gets me when Private Ryan is standing over Captain John Millers (Tom Hanks) grave as an old man and Ryan turns to his family and asks if he has been a good man.

 

[jay hay-char]

Does nothing to me, but Mrs hay-char is reduced to jelly every time she sees Emma Thompson crying (when she discovers her husband has a bit on the side) in Love Actually.

Yes -I know what she means - love that bit in the film - gets me as well.

... and I think it underlines what a very fine actress Emma Thompson is.

It's an incredibly powerful film - the first time I saw it it left me literally sobbing at the ending
