LOTR - Return of the King, at the end when Aragorn says "You my friends, you bow to no one" and everyone bows down to the hobbits. *sniff*

I forgot - 'The Other Sister'. The ending tears me up every time - when the marching band comes over the hill after the wedding. I LOVE that!

"My Life" -- Michael Keaton & Nicole Kidman where he videotapes his life for his baby because he's dying -- If you don't cry at this one you better find a cardiologist because you need a new heart!

This made me laugh. . .my husband hardly ever cries, but Apollo 13 gets him every time. We were just discussing that last night, in fact. He also cries at the end of Hoosiers every time, too.

For me, Marley and Me, Remember the Titans, The Notebook and Beaches come readily to mind. As I kid, I always cried at those Benji (the dog) movies.

There's something wrong about crying during a 3-D movie, you gotta lift up the glasses to wipe away the tears, very unnatural.

I cried at both Up & Avatar. I'm glad to see that I wasn't the only one who cired during Up, my whole family makes fun of me for that.

Imitation of Life


2 kleenex boxer for sure....

"Imitation of Life is a 1959 film directed by Douglas Sirk, adapted from Fannie Hurst's novel Imitation of Life, produced by Ross Hunter and released by Universal Pictures. Starring Lana Turner, it is a remake of the 1934 Imitation of Life, the film also stars John Gavin and features Sandra Dee, Dan O'Herlihy, Susan Kohner, Robert Alda and Juanita Moore as Annie Johnson. Gospel music star Mahalia Jackson appears as a church choir soloist.

This version of Imitation of Life was director Sirk's final major film, and is considered among his best. In the film, Lora Meredith (Turner), a white widowed single mother with dreams of becoming a famous actress, takes in Annie Johnson (Moore), a black widowed single mother who becomes a nanny for Lora's daughter Suzie (Dee). Although Lora eventually becomes a successful stage and screen star, she sacrifices a healthy relationship with her daughter. In addition, Annie's light-complexioned daughter Sarah Jane (Kohner) causes her mother much pain and heartache as she attempts to pass for white and shuns both her heritage and her mother's love."

OMG - reading this snipet and I'm crying again....

Beaches, Steel Magnolias or Terms of Endearment are my go-to movies when I need a good cry.

Predator...gets me every time.

Seriously the only movie I can remember sobbing at was The Passion of the Christ. There are plenty of movies that get me a little choked up, though. There is a scene in Love Actually, even.

Although this belongs in the worst movies thread I do recall seeing Message in a Bottle (HORRIBLE!) with my wife in the theater on Valentines Day. On the way to the car we passed four blubbering females being consoled by their terribly confused boyfriends / husbands. Some peoples' days were ruined...
