movies that have made you cry

[The Gemini Method]

Up, Blue Valentine, Pay it Forward and that one movie where Macaulay Caulkin and that girl...My Girl, Grave of the Fireflies and Empire of the Sun are pretty sad--almost shed a tear watching those.

Blue Valentine didn't make me cry but it is depressing as .

It shouldn't have made me cry--but I was going through the end of a long term relationship so it did cause my eyes to water a little bit. Brian's Song is definitely one of those that might cause you to open up the tear ducts especially if you're sports fan.

You macho guys going to claim you did not cry at this movie:

Yep. And the part where Piccolo is close to the end and Sayer's wife forewarns him over the hospital room telephone to: "Hurry, Gale."

And the fade out with the voice over by Jack Warden/George Halas is superb.

This original spares us what the remake did not...how cancer played it's vile game with Piccolo....left it up to the barrel chested Caan to give us a stern taste. And it was enough, a hint to the young of us viewing...the adult viewer didn't need to see it--they'd already been there.

Television should be proud of it's restraint there...their soul was intact 40+ years ago.

Another great moment, Cub. This movie wins for me because it's even more heartbreaking the second time through (at least in some scenes). In the beginning when he's in old age and he visits Fat Moe's bar--there's a scene where he steps on the toilet to peek through a hole where he first saw and fell in love with Deborah (a young Jennifer Connelly)--kills me everytime I watch it. That, and th last 10 minutes of Cinema Paradiso I will not watch with anyone else b/c I'd be ashamed of crying


and monosylab1k, no mention of Half Nelson? You disappoint me

Even tho its easily a top 5 movie for me, I didn't really cry at Half Nelson. But that moment when Drey deals to Ryan Gosling is about as sad and depressing a moment as there is.

I never saw this one, but a kid I knew in middle school was a 'stunt double' of the main kid when he was running through a field or something. Don't even remember the guy's name, but that was his 15 minutes of fame.
