I agree about Imitation of Life. That whole funeral scene with Mahalia Jackson singing and the carriage just break me up every time.

And also, since I only seem to think of old movies:
Penny Serenade
An Affair to Remember

unspokenone25 03-19-2007 03:14 PM

Steel Magnolias
Bridges of Madison County (when she has to say goodbye to him and when she reads his letter)
The Notebook
Secrets of the Ya-Ya Sisterhood (when mom and daughter reconcile..."make me better...")
Terms of Endearment
The Color Purpole

As a kid I cried at The Muppets Take Manhattan (the wedding scene....she'll make you happy....)

Imitation of Life (sooooooner willlllbe donneeeee)

The Chronicles of Narnia......I literally boo hooed when I saw this on DVD a few weeks ago for the first time.

The Women of Brewster Place, when they are tearing down the wall and Vesta is singing.

The Color Purple.... on a good day, I will cry from "God's Trying to Tell You Something" all the way to the closing credits.

West Side Story

Hair (The Flesh Failures/Let the Sunshine In .... from when Burger marches up into the plane, it flies away, and then everyone's at the cemetery)

Malcolm X

As you can see, I am a weeper.

Every. Single. Movie.

Okay, except for horror/slasher & those super silly films.

I've cried in every single movie I've ever gone to, my whole entire life. My earliest memory of crying in a movie was when I was like 6-7 & saw "For the Love of Benji" in the theater. And you bet I cried during the last movie I saw (on cable): Syriana.

My husband is reluctant to go to movies with me because I'm a weeper. I even cried during our first date movie together (Independence Day). That's why I watch most movies at home..

It takes a lot to make me cry during a movie. I remember one movie that made me lose it completely. It was a movie was on ABC Family over a year ago. It was called "If Only" with Jennifer Love Hewitt. It could have been because I was really sick that week, but that ending was more than I could handle. It makes me think of the movie "Premonition". The boyfriend in "If Only" kept having visions that Jennifer was going to be killed in a car accident. He knew the exact moment and place it was going to happen, so he tried to spend as much time with her as possible. When the accident is about to happen, he protects her from the oncoming car...scene ends. The next scene is in the hospital and you realize that the boyfriend was killed and Jennifer was safe. When I saw that, I cried so hard and I had the flu, so I looked like a mess!

I don't really cry. More like I get teary-eyed. Usually really good indie flicks get me there. I was also watching Titanic (for the gazillionth time) and I sniffled a little. But only because Leo dies. The last part of Gladiator is also kind of sad (where he is dying and sees the fields from his home).

That reminds me a lot of the movie they have around Christmas called "Three Days." It has Tim Meadows as an angel, and Kristin Davis is the main lead. She is killed on Christmas Eve while rescuing a dog. The husband gets to relive the last three days she's alive. But he cannot rescue her by normal means. He has three days to figure out the gift that will save her life. You can guess how that ends. Yup, cried at that one.

An Affair to Remember didn't do anything for me though. I got the point of the movie, but...
