What's the last movie that made you cry or tear up?

    Ok, so I just caught The Guardian on tv. Featuring Kevin Costner, Ashton Kutcher. I have a friend who, I discovered, bawls at the end of this movie. Straight up, 10 to 15 minutes crying for no personal reason. And having seen it.........I just don't get it. I don't find it particularly compelling or memorable. It's sad, I guess, but it definitely didn't make me cry. What's the deal?

    E.T. always kills me despite a focused resistance, I just can't watch it anymore.

    I feel for the chef whose heart found the doggie bag.

    Hell, I get weepy at a lot more than anyone who claims to own a man card should.

    Funny that this thread was resurrected today, 'cuz it all started on another thread about me crying while watching "P.S. I Love You." I just popped that movie in again yesterday and cried like a little bitch all over again. Like, nearing dehydration level. Damn.

    For anyone who cried at P.S. I Love You....read the book. It took me four days and it was a good thing that I was staying at a friend's house all alone....because there were times where I had to put it down because I was crying so hard.

    Titanic...the final scene, where she dies and you see all of her pictures and see what she did after she survived and then you see all of the people who died on the boat (with that amazing soundtrack) was the only part that I even got close to shedding tears in that movie.

    Okay....all-time biggest tearjerker: City of Angels. The scene where Nicolas Cage is confronted by the head angel and he asks if it was all worth it...the response just makes me cry every time. And the first time I saw it, I watched it with my dad and he cried too.

    The first movie I remember crying at in theaters...The Lion King. I was seven. Still without a doubt my absolute FAVORITE Disney movie. Amazing soundtrack. Seen it on West End in London as well...it's awesome.

    My tearjerker moment in LotR is when everyone bows to the hobbits at the end. And Aragorn's speech at the gates of Mordor. And when Sam starts carrying Frodo up the mountain. Okay, most of the last hour of that movie.

    I find though that I cry more at books than I do at movies. The last three HP books I cried at the end (especially B5...I love the person who dies...however, funnily enough, I've never cried at one of the movies.) and the end of A Tale of Two Cities are both good for the tears.

    You've Got Mail always gets me.
     
  12. To Kill A Mockingbird was on last night, and it has two moments that always get me, and did so again.
    1) "Stand up, Miss Jean Louise. Your father's passing."
    2) And the narration bit at the end, especially the last two lines: "He would be there all night. And he would be there, when Jem waked up in the morning." I am slaughtered by this point.
