What movies make you cry?

For me, the answer is 'lots of them', but particularly Edward Scissorhands. The first time I saw that movie, I cried/sobbed/bawled through pretty much the entire last half-hour. It's just so beautiful I can hardly stand it.

You? Killer scenes? Whole movies that make you weepy?

A League of Their Own and Fried Green Tomatoes do it for me...

I'm so ashamed to admit this, but Interview with the Vampire, the first fight scene of Charlie's Angels I and the opening sequence of X2 have honestly been the most recent film moments to make me cry. I just thought they were SO beautifully produced!

I think I'm getting old and tragically soft.

mmm - when it comes to beautifully produced, how about the total of "farewell my concubine", the duel between the two women in "crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", "City Of Lost Children", "Le Fabuleux destin d'Amélie Poulain"...

The Elephant Man with John Hurt and Anthony Hopkins. It was just the way he was so gentle and appreciative of the way his friends helped him. Particularly when he was given his shaving kit and taken 2 the cinema, discovering his inner self, after the abuse and mocking he's been subjected 2. I find the end of the film also quite poignant and moving as John Merrick (The Elephant Man) rearrangers his pillows knowing his death is near.

Well, and you're also an x-fan; that must help smile
Almost forgot one of my favs! Carrington! And i love michael Nyman's music for this one. So sad and so beautifull at the same time.

Another one that has some beautifull photography and editing is "Latcho Drom"; a film on the origin and evolution of gypsymusic. Some great bits in that one!!

I have to admit it, Titanic, the ending part...with the old lady...just that whole years-gone by thing...whew, you felt that could be you. Made me love my girlfriend more and cherish every moment.

There was another one...let's see...hmmm...i forgot, but there was another movie that made me twist in the chair and go "whew". If I remember i will post.

The end of Graffiti Bridge when Prince wins the day with Still would stand all time and the handshake with Morris. Its enough 2 melt the most frozen of hearts!

The recently released Dark Water really opened me up. At the end where the little Japanese girl is crying out for her mummy. Sad.

I agree. The part where Schindler breaks down at the end saying he didn't save enough people is heartbreaking.

The end of AI was very touching as well.

Shindlers' list is great but I didn't like A.I. at all. That was too sugary for me.
