Beaches
Ghost (and I've seen it a MILLION times)
and yeah, I watched Deep Impact last night and cried too. I'd seen bits and pieces of it before but never got to watch the whole thing before.

No matter HOW many times I see it (and it is one of my fav movies of all times) I bawl when Dotty is on the bed crying (after Betty got the letter about her husband) and in walks Bob. Boo-freaking-boo-hoo fest at my house. My husband thinks its hilarious - I could be doing anything in the world, but the second that scene starts, I am in tears.

My favorite movie & yes I cry every time... Stand by Me - knowing the "real" outcome of their lives is pretty sad too :(

Antwone Fisher - that whole movie, between the way Ms. Tate treats the kids, through to the end.

i'm sure there are others, but that's all i can think of.

I'm the same way. However, I also don't like watching movies over again (unless it's been a few years and I don't really remember the whole movie), so the following are movies that made me cry when I saw them...don't know if I would cry again if I watched them now.

Fried Green Tomatoes
Forrest Gump
Life Is Beautiful
The Lion King
50 First Dates (the ending)
My Girl
Titanic

A lot of the movies other posters have listed, I haven't seen yet. I definitely want to see The Notebook but I think I need to rent it and watch it by myself. Stories about people that are deeply in love but are kept apart and must overcome obstacles to finally be together are almost guaranteed to make me cry. Just the other day, I was watching Jane Eyre on PBS (because there was nothing else on since I don't have cable) and that made me cry.

Selena, first time I saw it (maybe because I actually followed her career when she was alive), during the vigil :(

La Bamba..RITCHIE!
Lion King-Mufasa dying, I first saw it in the 4th grade..def had me almost crying
Mi Familia-the end
Platoon-William H. Macy is left behind
Home Alone 2-first time I saw it, then end when he was saying goodbye to the lady
Soul Food-Mama Joe dying
Philadelphia-Video montage at the end

I can never seem to empathize with Titanic or Romeo and Juliet...I'm always like meh

Peggy Sue Got Married
Breakfast at Tiffany's
The Way We Were (the ending)
League of Their Own - the ending and I cry whenever I hear Madonna sing that damn playground song.

The first 2 might not make sense to most people, but they remind me of my mom which is what does it.

Ghost
Lion King
Terms of Endearment
Color Purple

I'm such a sap! While I agree with almost every other one listed above, here are ones I didn't see (though I may have missed them):
-Finding Neverland
-Stepmom (gets me every time!)
-I Am Sam
-A Walk to Remember
-October Sky
-Shakespeare in Love
-Simon Birch
-The Pursuit of Happyness
-In America (love this one)
-Eternal Sunshine of a Spotless Mind
-Life As A House (fav movie)

I forgot StepMom. That one's the worst for me... at Christmas time, when she's essentially saying goodbye to her kids with those gifts.

I watched Annie this weekend and cried...the part where Annie and Daddy Warbucks are singing "Maybe."

I'm horrible about this! If there's a movie that someone's cried at, I probably have too. I just get so into the stories.

Some that haven't been listed:

Independence Day (when the trailer park kid's dad dies)
Ever After (when she enters the Masqurade and says the line "Breathe, just breathe")
Narnia (when Aslan dies - even though I read the book and know what happens...)
Maria Full of Grace (the whole dang thing is sad)

And I always cry a bunch at Home Alone 2, because it was my grandpa's favorite movie.

And I literally cried the whole way through Wicked when I saw the musical.

Usually, the first time I see a sad movie I get teary, and then am fine if I see it again, but for some reason "What Dreams May Come" ALWAYS gets me.
