I should exclude myself -- I cry at just about everything. Who else do you know that teared up during the previews for Lord of the Rings? Or the end of the Japanese Dark Water?
I'll pick my Top 10 after I grab some Kleenex. Just reading everyone else's lists has me verklempt!

Field Of Dreams gets me everytime, as does Frank Cross' speech at the end of Scrooged.

Braveheart, when Hamish's dad dies
Return of the King, when King Theoden dies.
Bram Stoker's Dracula, when Vlad has an attack of conscience and doesn't want Mina to become what he is because he loves her too much.
Transformers the Movie, when Optimus Prime dies...well, maybe not as much as when I was a kid, but I still get emotional
Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, at the end when Jiao Long tries to find the cure for Li Mu Bai and fails to get back in time.
Thats all I can think of for now. |

Like WIB I cry at a lot of stuff.
the obvious - Moulon Rouge, The Green Mile, Wrestling Ernest Hemmingway
and then there are the ones that people roll their eyes at me for...
The Others
The Woman in Black
pretty much most ghost movies
The Little Mermaid (at the end when she says "I love you Daddy")
The Muppets Take Manhattan (during "it's time for saying goodbye" and when Kermit and Piggy get married) - and these aren't from when I was a kid - this is currently I'll cry when I see these.
Schindler's List - won't see it again cos it made me cry so hard I threw up
The Color Purple
The Secret Garden - not the Hallmark version. the one I have the little girl is kind of a redhead. and she has this dream where she's a toddler and her mother is in the garden and she turns and runs off leaving her alone. I'm a redheaded girl and I saw this with my mom when I was in my 20's and I fell into her arms bawling my eyes out.
god I'm pathetic
Watership Down! thanks belle, I would have forgotten that one. when I was a kid I'd alternate between terror of the scary bunnies and crying my heart out at the end. |
