Movies that make you cry

Does any one ever get something like "tears of strength"? That's how I describe Flight 93, Glory, Schlinder's List, and other movies which cause a "Never Again!" feeling.

ETA: also Brian's Song, Sophie's Choice, and to whomever said she cries at songs, "Somewhere Out There".

A TV show episode that always makes me cry is one episode of Golden Girls. This episode is the girls sitting around talking about Mothers Day. I was watching it with my mother and the story in particular is when Blanche is telling about her last Mothers day with her own mother and how her mom didn't remember much anymore b/c of Alzheimers. My mom then started talking about my grandmother and her last Mothers Day with her mom. It got both of us crying our eyes out. I never got to meet my grandmother b/c she passed away before I was born but every time I see that episode, I think of my mom with tears in her eyes remembering her mother.

OMG I forgot about Glory. That movie always strikes a cord in my heart.

I'm not sure if I mentioned this movie or not, but Revenge of the Sith. I'm such a dork.

That movie seriously made me bawl my eyes out. Even though you totally knew that Anakin had to go all "sithy" I was like "no don't do it" during the movie. Plus, John Williams score is just so powerful. To this day I always cry when the purge starts.

Even out of context this sentence would make sense.

Two more:
Monsoon Wedding--When Ria's Uncle comes to get her to bring her home.
10 Things I Hate About You-- 1)The next day after prom and she's sitting on the porch. I get misty when her sister thanks her and they have a "moment". 2)When she reads her poem, right when her voice cracks and she starts to cry.
