movies that make you cry
 

Okay, so far we've done favorite chick flicks, depressing songs, happy songs, etc..what movie makes you cry every time you watch it?

For me:
Terms of Endearment
Beaches
My Girl
Field of Dreams
Armageddon

not cry, but throws me into mortal rage such that I absolutely hate the actor who played this role because of how well he did it...I honestly think at one point in time I would have murdered the man who plays Neil Perry's father in Dead Poet's Society. I get so damn enraged watching that film, and actually I'm getting pissed off thinking about him right now. ugh :mad:

Untamed Heart, Ghost, Rudy and Titanic are at the top of my list. :)

And, how could I forget Dead Poets Society, Beaches, Steel Magnolias and White Squall?

Backdraft is pretty dang sad.

Titanic.
Sweet November ( not a good idea to watch with sisters - 25 girls balling all at the same time)

I am not usually a crier in movies but...
 

The cemetery scene in Steel Magnolias where Sally Field loses it...it gets me every time--bar none.

Various parts of Not Without My Daughter (coincidentally?) also with Sally Field, makes me cry. Especially when she gets locked in her apartment alone during an air raid, and when she sees the American flag flapping in the wind at the very end.

Oh, god--I can cry at anything but my sobbing ones are--

1. Steel Magnolia's(yup, the cemetary scene for me, too)
2. Stepmom(I had to sit in the theatre for 20 minutes and compose myself)
3. A Perfect Storm(and sadly, I had read the book, so I knew what happened and I was still sobbing)


I am such a basket case!

Well being the sentamental guy I be:

Top Gun
Brians Song
The Way we Were
Love Story
Love With a Proper Stranger
Physco

There are more but I am crying just thinking about the ones I listed:(

Good movies Tom but geez the newest movie on that list is from the 80's lol.

zntke-Good movies Tom but geez the newest movie on that list is from the 80's lol.

That's because they are cheaper to rent and we are saving for our retirement! (Brian's Song Really sad)
Dead Poets-Wanted to beat up that Dad.
Steel, Terms, Beaches-Out and out sob fest.

There are so many-I cried at the end of Harry and the Hendersons.

God, I have so many tapes that i could well? come near Blockbusters!

Trouble is I cannot get the Damn VCR to work in Family Room or Dead Room!!!!!!! :D

Tommarrow is is forever but sometimes seems to never come :(

Forest Gump - the scene he talk to his deceased wive. I had tears in my eye.
James Bond - So much destruction on BMWs, Ferrari, etc. I still cry when I think about the destruction of those cars.
Battlefield: Earth - I cried cause I wasted money and time on the movie
Pearl Harbor - See Battlefield: Earth

The Green Mile (at the end, where the guy dies even though he was innocent)

Life is Beautiful (from the point where he gets shot to the end, and even for fifteen minutes AFTER the movie's ended...)

Titanic (the scene where she gets on the lifeboat against her will, and she looks at Leo and the song plays...EVERY time I see it I get teary without fail.)

I cried the first time I saw The Perfect Storm. I think I should just stay away from boat movies.

Dances With Wolves, I can't remember which scene exactly set me off but I cried. Probably when the wolf died, I think. I can't stand animals dying in movies.

Oh..good one, i completely forgot about that one..I start to cry during that movie at the beginning when they all sit down to watch the movie, and he starts to cry..just because I know why it makes me sad...god..thinkin about that makes me want to cry :( :)

GHOST!!!:(
Stepmom
My Best Friend's Wedding


I know there are more, but I can't think right now.

I would totally have to agree on Sweet November. A bunch of sisters got together this summer and had a girls night and rented it not knowing what a tearjerker it was. But it was sooo good. :)

I have only ever cried during two movies....

The Thorn Birds, and My Best Friend's Wedding.....

These two just hit way too close to home for me....


:( :( :( :(

Titanic (I was sobbing...walked out of the theater with black mascara lines running down my face)
Ghost
Stepmom
Forrest Gump
Fried Green Tomatoes
Steel Magnolias

Evita

I sobbed through the end of it :(

I'm not much of a crier when it comes to movies/tv.

But the Ally McBeal where Billy died...that one had me totally broken up :(

I have a question
What are the movies, Steel Magnolias and Sweet November about? Sound kind of interesting....

d

Steel Magnolias is a movie about a bunch of southern women. Focuses around a salon and a woman who has a severe case of diabetes.

Sweet November...I personally did not like the movie. It's about a guy who's a jerk and a woman who claims she can change him in a month. He falls in love with her (of course) but she's dying of cancer.

The woman on whom the main character is based is a Phi Mu. If you look closely, you can see Julia Roberts wearing the Phi Mu badge. She was given honorary membership so that she would be allowed to wear it for filming.

Plot Summary for Steel Magnolias (1989)
(from Internet Movie Database)
For complete info see... http://us.imdb.com/Title?0098384

Revolving around Truvy's Beauty Parlor in a small parish in modern-day Louisiana, STEEL MAGNOLIAS is the story of a close-knit circle of friends whose lives come together there. As the picture opens, we find Drum Eatenton (Tom Skerrit) shooting birds in the trees of his back yard in preparation for his daughter's (Julia Roberts) wedding reception that afternoon. Shortly thereafter, M'Lynn (Sally Field) and Shelby (Drum's wife and daughter) depart for Truvy's to get their hair done for the wedding.

"Just the sweetest thing," Annelle Depuy Desoto (who may or may not be married because her marriage may not be legal) is introduced to Truvy's customers as her new "glamour technician." While in the chairs, the sour-tempered Ouiser Boudreaux shows up and entertains the assemblage with her barbs. It seems that the only one of the group who truly understands Ouiser is Clairee who is recently widowed and looking for a diversion. As she says, later in the picture, "If you can't find anything good to say about anybody, come sit by me." Rife with humor and heartbreak, these "Steel Magnolias" make us laugh and cry as the realities of their lives in tiny Chickapenn Parish unfolds.
