View Full Version : Movies That Made You Cry
<p>I actually got a douche chill yesterday, during this topic on the show, when a caller mentioned "Annie." I use to be a pretty good crier at movies - not so much anymore - but I can't imagine doing anything but giggling watching that piece of crap movie (thanks, in large part, to John Waters and Kathleen Turner). </p><p>Several years ago I allowed myself to be an emotional, blubbering fool, mostly after my family moved away and the shock and sadness of post-911. "Million Dollar Baby," "Finding Neverland" and "Mystic River" all almost got me, and there was at least one (that's escaping my brain) that snuck up on me and kind of got me.</p><p>Nothing will compare to the feeling I had watching "Terms of Endearment" when that came out; the scene when Debra Winger tells her little boy from the death bed that she thought that their goodbyes went better than she had expected and he agreed - holy crap - that just brutalized me. "World According to Garp" also surpsied me, since I had read the book, but that also really hit me hard. Things with cancer and children just are awful. </p>

Apollo 13, when they pass through the atmosphere on re-entry and lose radio communication and no one knows if they're going to make it or not. They could just burn up and disappear.

Incidentally, ET also had me crying, but that's because I saw it when it came out and I was like 2. And I have to agree with Alice, I think Cinema Paradiso got me too. I also think that books actually tend to get me to mist up before actors do.<br><p>The weird thing though is that nothing has been able to get me to cry lately. I haven't cried since 9/11.

<p>For me they are actually several, the ones that come to mind right away are, Terms of endearment, Ghost, Top gun when goose died, I cried too. La Bamba (the ritchie valens story) everytime it comes on TV I cry. Ladder 49 most recently I bawled at that one in the movie theather when it was out, very embarassing. Lion king was another one. That's all I can think of of now.</p>

Upon it's release it was an absolute bomb. However, a few years back (1980 to be exact) They ran a retrospective on Frank Capra on PBS, and they ran the last 35 minutes or so of this movie (from the time he meets Clarence (in the Bridgeman's shack) until the end). I fell in love with the movie from that day forward, It gets me at the ending scene every time I see it.... "Mr. Smith Goes To Washington" does it to me also! Frank Capra was an amazing filmmaker!</p>

<p>I know this sounds retarded but, many times, there are scenes in ANIMATED movies or shows that make me sad.</p><p>EXAMPLES:</p><p>TOY STORY 2. When Jessie recounts the story of how her owner used to love her but then outgrew her. </p><p>FUTURAMA. Fry is missing/frozen but, his loyal dog literally dies (onscreen!) waiting for him to return.</p><p>DUMBO. The mother freaks out trying to protect her baby. She is tortured & shackled and taken away. Presumably to be killed. Dumbo reunites with her one last time. He is outside her "prison car". They never actually SEE eachother again but, they know the other one is on the other side of the wall.</p><p>etc etc.</p><p>(Honorable mention: Not animated but, EIGHT BELOW kicked my ass. Kicked it! Watching those dogs suffer, help each other, and fight to survive means more to me than almost any human drama.)</p><p> </p><p>I don't cry at patriotic bullshit and I cetainly don't cry when Ben Affleck and Bruce Willis have their tearful g'byes but...the animated & animal stuff can really get to me. </p><p> </p><p> </p><p>.</p>

<p>In addition to all my (previously mentioned) animated films, I should mention CHARLOTTES WEB. When I was a kid, that was an asskicker. I think that just might've been my introduction to death. </p><p> </p><p>Bad times.</p>

There was sort of an unspoken rule that you didn't mention that anyone cried, because we all did. It was kind of a funny scene. Five kids... crying... trying not to let the others know. You try all the tricks, like stretching your arms out in front of you like you're tired, and leaning your eyes into your bicep to wipe away the tears.</p>
I have a feeling Charlotte's Web is a lot of people's introduction to death, or the possibility of loved ones dying. The book is obviously just as bad. I think I cried for both. <br><p>
Bookwise growing up, Bridge to Terabithia is also a real asskicker. I mean, holy shit. <br><p>
Check this out: <br><p><a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0413895/">http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0413895/</a></p><p>
The casting looks decent, but Julia Roberts??? They could do better.

When I was PMSing horribly one month, I repedately cried at an Applebees commercial. The one where the old lady calls out the the teenaged girl to come over and she says she has to work, and the old lady looks all sad, and then the girl comes back later with a sack full o' nasty Applebees

<p>In Field of dreams the other scene that gets me is when Doc Graham sees the girl fall and choke and decides to steop over the line and help her. The realization that his true calling in life was to help people, not play all. When he decides his life was fine the way it turned out. Then he turns and walks back on the field and the players welcome him back.</p><p><img src="http://xs103.xs.to/xs103/06273/12---1.jpg" border="0" /></p>

Ron's Phillies world series father talk must have completely hit home for you. I was getting more teary eyed listening to Ron that day than I have in any recent movie.
When I was a kid my parents took me to see sad Disney animal movies almost every weekend. I don't know what I did to deserve it. I would pretend to be sick to try to get out of seeing Gentle Ben, the Yearling, Old Yeller, Where the Red Fern Grows, and the rest of those horrible forced-to kill-your-own pet movies. I don't cry much in movies anymore.

It hit home big time for me. I was dying for a championship, but as it got deeper and deeper into the playoffs I started to get more excited about seeing my father celebrate a championship. It paid off, and it is something I will never forget. I remember everything he said, every reaction, etc. I'm getting kinda choked up thinkin' bout it now. that, and I am listening to Holly and Silent Night is playing right now.
I remember I was watching a movie with my father when I was younger. It had anamatronic dinosaurs in it, and at one point this little boy dinosaur (young dino) witnesses his father dino dying. I asked my father is he was going to die, and he explained death to me for the first time. I remember crying so hard during that, and I still look back at that moment as being the time when I realized that nothing lasts forever, even if I want it to. I thank my father for a lot of things, so anything related to father/son relationships gets to me.

Laugh all you fucks want, but my answer is Boyz in da Hood.
After Ricky gets shot and Cuba carries him back to his house, the scene when ricky is laying dead on the front lawn while his mom opens the letter that said his SAT score was high enough, he was accepted on scholarship to that college. When she sees that letter and just breaksdown, man that shit is ROUGH.

Field of Dreams gets me every time. I love baseball, and much like Ronnie, its one of those things where no matter what my Dad and I are fighting/arguing about, bringing up baseball will end it real quick. I remember playing catch with him at the beach this summer, and I couldnt help but think of the end of Field and Dreams.
I also saw La Vita E Bella for the first time in awhile last weekend...I could not believe out hard I was crying throughout that movie. Thank God I was alone. Im literally embarrased just thinking about how hard I was crying.

its such a Long Island movie, and Tom Cruise coming back home in the wheelchair and the dad showing him around and showing him how the dog got older and how he made his room handicapable and the whole time hes holding back tears until he can't anymore. Thats fucking sad!

I think a lot of people sleep on this movie, and I have never all out bawled to it... but I fucking LOVE "25th Hour"
At the end when Monty's father is telling him that he could just take a left and they could head out west to a small town.... He tells him:
"And maybe one day, years from now, long after I'm dead and gone, reunited with your dear mother, you gather your whole family together and tell them the truth, who you are, where you come from. You tell them the whole story. And then you ask them if they know how lucky they are to be there. It all came so close to never happening. This life came so close to never happening."
Even writing that I got choked up a little... gets me every time...
God what a great movie...
