Movies that make you cry
Admit it. We've all got them. I just watched Deep Impact and I cried. Probably because I'm a girl.
I also cried at the end of Black Beauty and Ice Age. And Children of Men, and Blood Diamond. I think that's my list for now...oh, and Ladies in Lavender. I SUCK! |
Beaches (only when Wind Beneath My Wings plays at the end)
Once Were Warriors (it's from New Zealand, a must see) When A Man Loves A Woman (Andy Garcia, Meg Ryan) Armageddon (when Gracie says goodbye to her dad) The Patriot (when Susan finally speaks and begs her dad not to go) My Girl (IT HURTS! THE BEE STINGS!) I think that's about it. |
Anything where the dog dies in the end.:(

Also "Beaches," and "Field of Dreams." |
Steel Magnolias. I just break down every time.
|
Oh, I am so happy to know I am not the only one that cries at Field of Dreams. Some movies I cry the first time, but after that, meh, sad, but not crying. Dreams though?? Every freakin' time!
Armageddon, Legends of the Fall, Braveheart, White Squall, Meet Joe Black, and The Patriot get me too. |
first movie i ever cried at was bridge to tarabithin (sp) and it wasent even done that well, I mean like the book was even more sad and i didnt even cry at that so i dont knwo what happened but it was a killer!!
|
Um...
Indecent Proposal Forrest Gump (the theme music) Little Miss Sunshine (when the Grandpa doesn't wake up, that's how my Grandpa died, only he wasn't doing drugs! I swear that was probably the worst crying I've ever done in a theater!) Dream Girls (I hate that song "You're gonna love me" but when Jennifer Hudson sings it, it makes me bawl) Beaches! Any movies that makes you cry, I cry. So all the sad ones that I've seen. |
Imitation of Life(1959) The Scene when Annie is on her death bed chokes me up every time. The ending as well.
Titanic The Color Purple ETA How could I forget Brian's Song? |
*The Color Purple (generally sad because the main character can't seem to get a break for most of her life)
*A Bronx Tale (the kid goes to tell Sonny that he thinks the black girl is "the one" and Sonny gets shot *tear*) *Stepmom (I can't imagine what it would be like to know that you are dying) *Imitation of Life (when Sarah Jane runs through her mom's funeral parade crying after deny her mom for most of her life) *Schindler's List (seeing the little girl in red coat dead toward the end of the movie) |
Where the heart is
An american tail |
Forrest Gump
Steel Magnolias Titanic (I remember sobbing as I walked out of the theater...and I still cry every time I see it) The Notebook A League of Their Own The Lion King (don't laugh....I bawl my eyes out during the scene when Mufasa dies) |

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. |
Quote:
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. |
Philadelphia

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."
|
Wall Street
|
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.

The Notebook (When she forgets) Imitation of Life ...Now don't laugh... Little Mermaid ;) |
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 |
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.. :o |
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).

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