Films that make you cry

Lol same here with Doctor Who.

- The gas mask child one. (Are you my mummy?)
- The one where the doctor sent rose home in the tardis and she stared into the heart of it.
- When Rose went back to her fathers death day.
- The cybermen one where they first visit the parallel universe.
- The Impossible Planet where they leave him behind on that planet cos they think he's gone.
- And last but not least the final 2 with Rose in.
I was blubbing at the very beginning where she's saying something like 'This is how I died' :cry:
:D
 
The first film that made me cry was "Ring of Bright Water" When Mitch was killed by the ditch digger - I'm sorry Mac I thought it was an otter gets me every time...
 
and on top of that, the camera pans across the little kiddies crying for their daddies realizing that it will be the last time they see them at the same time. :cry: I was only 9 when I saw that. That film is so haunting, it stayed with me for days.


(Sorry, can't get the quote thing right tonight!)
Yes, and as SparkleBabe said, the bit when the mother is settling her children down to sleep in their cabin knowing they were to die :( plus the part when Rose is wading in the corridors with the hammer, desperately trying to find the room where Jack is locked up, the ship noise & the lights flickering...

The b&w 'Night To Remember' is really good too, I think.

Message in A Bottle - watched it again last night and well, very :( now just thinking about it...
 
Lots of these have been mentioned already but here is my list:

Titanic - many scenes in this film set me off but the ones that really get to me are the little boy in corridor crying in steerage, Jack picks him up and tries to save him, but then his dad turns up and wrenches him from Jack's arms only for them to run in the wrong direction and get engulfed in the water...also, the Irish mother reading to her kiRAB tucked up in bed, another mother clinging to her child saying "It'll all be over soon" and when the Lifeboat goes back to search for survivors and the Ioann Gryffud characters sees a dead mother clutching her baby in the water.

The Green Mile - first saw this at the cinema with a group of frienRAB when it first came out - we were sobbing hysterically at THAT scene.

Schindlers List - again, saw this at the cinema on it's release, everyone just filed out silently at the end of the movie instead of the usual chatter. Most of them (like me) just had tears running down our faces.

United 93 - I think the bit that really got to me was the scene where the terrorists and the passengers were praying. I cried but mostly because I felt really angry about it all.

The Color Purple - I cry in this practically all the way through! I have it on DVD, think I fancy watching that again.

Roots - amazing, ground breaking stuff for it's time. Again, I cry a lot in this because it makes me angry and ashamed.

A film I watched recently that had me and my mum in tears is a little-known film called Another Life (British movie) starring Natasha Little, Ioann Gryffud and Nick Moran. It's set in the 1920s and is based on the true story of Edith Thompson who was unjustly hanged. It's a shame it didn't do better because it's a gem of a movie. I thoroughly recommend it - you could rent or buy it cheaply thru Amazon.

Oh..and I just thought of another: The Elephant Man starring John Hurt. Saw this when I was 15 and cried buckets.

Another thing that makes me tearful (sounRAB silly I know) is the scene in The Mummy Returns when Anksenhamun (sp) abandons Imhotep and he falls into the fiery pit. The expression on his face is absolutely heartbreaking! He was a movie "bad guy" that I actually sympathised with in both films..
 
Kramer vrs Kramer - the final scenes when they are waiting for the Mum to come and pick the little boy up and they are both close to tears.

Brassed Off, at the end when Pete Postlethwaite makes a speech about " I thought music matters..........but does it b0llocks"

I must confess I never really got Titanic, the love story didn't feel real to me!

As for AI, that bloody film was horrible! I could never watch it again, I was too traumatised!
 
Yup...that bit gets me every time to the point that my mates and OH taunt me with the theme tune and "daddy, my daddy". The other one is The Elephant Man...I'm distraught by the end.
 
Million Dollar baby is the only film I've cried at , and a scence from Freaky Friday where Jamie Lee Curtis (who has LinRABay Lohan's soul in her) talks about her dad at her mum's engagement (who is trapped in LinRABay Lohan's body)
