I've really enjoyed reading this thread, so many memories, and other films I haven't watched, because I know myself.
Imitation Of Life kills me every time. I know it's going to happen, every time Mahalia Jackson begins to sing Trouble Of The World I'm a wailing sobbing mess.
I'm surprised no-one mentioned The Crow. I loved Brandon Lee and had wanted him to do well and prove himself, I liked Bruce Lee too. I knew what'd happened and I couldn't watch the film. A few years passed and I thought I'd be alright. I wasn't. I sobbed almost the whole way thru then after crawled upstairs to bed and sobbed like there was no tomorrow.
I saw a clip from a Johnny Depp film on youtube yesterday and wanted to know about it. I sent for it last night, The Brave, and I'm scared.
The ending of Benny and Joon makes me "happy cry" when Sam and Joon are in the apartment.
