movies that have made you cry

[Thompson]

Any man who's watched 'Old Yeller' and hasn't cried has no soul.

[Floyd Pacquiao]

"Hachi". Richard Gere finds an abandoned puppy at a train station on his way home from the university (Gere uses the train to and from work). He and the Dog become best friends. The dog becomes so attached to Gere that he waits for him to come home from work everyday at train station, so they can walk home together. One day Gere dies in a tragic accident. The dog (not knowing that gere is dead) still goes to the train station, and sits in the same spot everyday, for the rest of his life, waiting for his bestfriend to come home.

reminds me of that Futurama episode with Fry and his dog encased in dolomite

There are plenty of scenes where I don't cry but find it too disgusting to watch, like in Apocalypse Now when they massacre the boat because the little girl runs to go save her puppy.

The military's hatred towards puppies goes back several decades, tbh.

Then explain Lance's compassion. Can't forget Lance

Yeah its really good highly recommend it, it makes you appreciate life. Plus the realism is almost top notch, kinda like Private Ryan, but I prefer this movie.

Marcus Luttrell has said it stays true to his book for the most part. I wasn't gonna see it if not for his blessing. Mark Wahlberg playing a Seal from Texas is too good to pass up

Yeah I'm sure the writers got it from the book.. I had to fake a sneeze for that episode too.

Culbs, i'll ask you here - would you call in to do another episode of The Mono Show? I'm thinking Monday evening.

Of course I will.

Goodfellas when Tommy thought he was being made and instead caught one in the back of the head

Some of ya'll are full of , and it's ok to cry

Old Yeller is a given. Forrest Gump and Green Mile come to mind. Last of the Mohicans, Land Before Time when the mom dies...Philadelphia...lots more and all of them were great movies.

Anything with Nicholas Cage

Ain't that the truth. Though this reminds me of a good tear jerker type movie. The original "Wicker Man" '73...Edward Woodward plays the role of the police detective. This is an incredibly frightening motion picture. And it's done without the cut & slash.

Though it is terribly sad at the end when Woodward comes to the realization that he is going to be burned to death as a sacrifice. Now, an actor has to go there---because of course he's not being killed, but, a good actor has to, must, must, must, must prepare himself to go there....and of course come back after the director yells "cut." Woodward does that here and it's gloriously effective. His at ude, his facial expressions, his body language when he comes to the realization that he's been lured to this isolated land for the express purpose (and none other) of being destroyed.

Lord-a-mighty.

Of course I will.

Ha. That'd be interesting.

I hope your tear apart Spur asses with 6.

The part in "Shane" where they pull up the tree stump. It's just such an honest moment in film and so delightfully lit and staged, the actors all in one place and linked in peace before the violence envelopes them all. The way Heflin and his wife (Jean Arthur) touch each other after the stump is pulled free.....she is so feminine though dressed in work clothes, he is so oblivious because he is just a simple farmer.....and Ladd "Shane" just a little uncomfortable, already the moment has passed and he's the "stranger" only freshly arrived hours before.

My God, American film is a miracle.

I'm gonna bring my blow torch from the basement. It's behind my barrel collection. I'm goin' up to the Home Depot and get some aceptaline tanks filled. When I'm done that place will need a paint job and load of screen doors.

I've cited this part in many threads, but, I'll go again because I love it so:::

"Rocky IV." When Creed returns to his corner after getting absolutely lit up by Drago......now this is where Stallone steps in and finishes the scene and the Creed character. Stallone forgets nothing now. Nada, zip.....does he linke him with Tony Burton? no. Does he link him with himself "Rocky?" Get the outta here. So who is it he's takes to the grave? Well, of course, it's his wife......the woman who has sided him thru 1-3......"Wouldn't you rather play the children than read hate mail?"........who sat there in the dressing room at the very limit of her endurance as Burton implores Creed in pre-fight ritual. It's her that he finds in the crowd as he awaits his final round after admonishing "Rocky" for even suggesting that he throw the towel. "You don't stop this fight, no matter what......No...matter...what." A 5 count ensues before he turns his head and finds the wife, who has now risen (like Glen Close would rise in white in "The Natural),,,she's not crying, but, her eyes have crested.

Sylvester Stallone

Memento.. I felt for the Leonard character played by Guy Pearce. It's a joke he didn't win any awards for best actor.

Several movies have gotten me misty-eyed. It's not too difficult.

However, I will straight curl up into the fetal position and WEEP when watching the interviews of the real 101st before each Band of Brothers episode. Holy god.

Braveheart, Saving Private Ryan, Dances With Wolves when they shoot the wolf

[CubanSucks]

Land Before Time when the mom dies

Blows the stampede scene in Lion King out of the water on sadness level

Braveheart, Saving Private Ryan, Dances With Wolves when they shoot the wolf

There's like 3 scenes in Braveheart for me. Saving Private Ryan, the scene with the medic talking about regretting not talking to his mom more..damn

^There is something "phony" about "Saving Pvt. Ryan"---no offense to your opine(s), but, it's just two trite, too convenient, too cozy...like "Green Mile" is the same way. The differentiation between the classes is apparent in both films and it bothers me when I'm watching them and when I recall them. And I'll watch both time & again.

There is a special part in "Saturday Night Fever." They're at the dance club and this time "Tony's" brother, who is a catholic priest has come to see "Tony" dance. "Father Frank Jr.," as his mother proudly refers to him is having a crisis of belief that he can continue as a priest. While he sitting in the club with Tony and his gang of friends who are head bangers and recreational drug pushers & users he is approached by the weakest of the gang. Now Father Frank is sitting at the table and is facing the dance floor. The kid is behind him on the same side of the table and is trying to get his attention to help him with his girlfriend who he has impregnated. Father Frank hears him, but, can no longer face this responsibility and is trying to tune him out. The kid won't be deterred though. Without actually giving it away, or, Father asking him the precise problem, the Father finally turns from freedom (the dance floor) and to this child (his flock)......and tells him...."You got this girl pregnant."

"Yes, father, that I did." The kid innocently asks Father if God would send down an abortion for her. Father tells him unequivocally "no" of course and the kid accepts this.

It's just an aside in an otherwise hedonistic motion picture.

agreed about Saving Private Ryan. It's a mediocre movie surrounded by a few absolutely incredible battle sequences.

As a kid i cried watching this:

[DJR210]

Goodfellas when Tommy thought he was being made and instead caught one in the back of the head

I cried when Maury got choked with the phone cord.
