Cinammon Insight, you reminded me of tons of movies that I had forgotten about like My Girl and Steel Magnolias.
However I do have a question, what part of Cruel Intentions made you cry because if I recall correctly that was an off the hook comedy.

Not just any Benji movie, MaMaBuddha, you've got to get the very first one!! I think that the name of it is just "Benji," but it's been so long I can't remember.

Ahhhhh . . . sweet nostalgia . . .

MamaBuddah,

Imitation of life is my all-time favorite. Make sure that you get the second version of "Imitation of Life." The first version is good also, but the second when Mahalia begins singing "Soon will be done with the troubles of this world..." The tears will begin to fall and will not stop until the credits. Hope you enjoy it!!

**The Color Purple** When Mr. separates the sisters was a tough scene for me. I have seen that movie a million times, and that always is a tear-jearker. Also Shug and the church scene, and the ending!!!! ~~Sniff~~

It's all right to be sensitive. I cannot believe you have never seen Imitation of Life. Please make sure that you get the Lana Turner version. It came on last week and I was on it.

I have never seen Benji either. I remember that I cried on the series finale of THE COSBY SHOW!!

I also cried on Stompin' at the Savoy. I cry everytime Eddie Cane Junior sings I feel Like Going on. It brought tears to my eyes just to see it and then when the little girl calls her brother DUCK, boo hoo again.

On Cruel Intentions, I cried off of the part when Sebastian got hit by the car, Annette was crying, and he kept telling her that he loved her.

The 1st Land Before Time had me crying too. (Little Foot's ma died) I cannot forget about how I cried while watching Panther!

[dstbrat]

ok know i've got to add my $.02:

1 the color purple- when my sister got married we called her husband mister for the longest because he was separating us
2 terms of endearment
3 follow that bird- big bird is adopted by the do-do birds and the tease him for being different and he runs away and some unscrupulous circus people exploit him as a side show act
4 stepmom
5 north and south
6 sugarhill-when goggles died
7 the five heartbeats
8 steel magnolias
9 the green mile- i cried the whole movie! when he came down the mile the 1st time and was scared and asked if they could keep the lights on ohh my goodness
10 dangerous liasons (if you like cruel intentions, you must see this film. it was the predecessor set in victorian times with glenn close john malcovich (sp)keanu reeves uma thruman; i highly recommend this picture)

those are just a few!

[Classy_Diva5]

Okay...the ultimate tear-jerker will always be The Color Purple. When Oprah was reunited with her children, my eyes were BLOODSHOT RED.

1. Titanic-when the ship started sinking, it was all over from there

2. Jerry Maguire-Tom Cruise's character came back to the house to "re-claim" his wife after he realized how much he loved her....ENOUGH SAID!!

3. The Best Man-even though Morris Chestnut's character knew that his wife cheated, he still held on to that vow he made to God and married her

4. Higher Learning-when Tyra Banks got shot, (even though she is not one of my favorite actresses), I had to leave the theatre cause I was crying so loud!

5. Jason's Lyric-ya'll know the scene, when Jada gets shot and we all think that she's dead!!! That is a SERIOUS cryfest there!

I don't usually go for tearjerker movies....

1) The scene at the end of Ghost where Whoopi(Patrick) and Demi danced! I cry everytime.

2) In the Color Purple,
a. I crack up when Celie is shaving Mister. She shoulda hacked his th'oat!
b. The bar scene where Sophia knock the s^*& out of Squeak. I hollered...even when I read the book, I was on the floor!

3) In T2: Judgement Day, the scene where the mother (Linda Hamilton) is having a nightmare about the nuclear holocaust is frightening. I remember that scene whenever I hear anything about nuclear weapons.

4) Here's an old one, in When Harry Met Sally, the restaurant scene! "I'll have some of what she's having!"

Keep 'em coming!

I'll keep my list short since I'm at work.

1) Color Purple- when the sisters are separated.

2) Ghost- When it's time for Patrick Swayze's character to leave.

3) Cooley High- When "It's so hard to say goodbye" started playing at funeral at the end.

4) Soul Food- When Mama Joe died.

5)Imitation of Life

Dang, I really forgot about SET IT OFF. That movie had me crying from when TT was shot til the credits. I started WAILING when Jada called Blair and just held the phone.

I'm with you soror,just about any movie about Black people I am going to cry.
