The last time you cried at a film.

Braveheart - nightmare. Cannot watch the movie again. Too upsetting. I just can't cope with the hung, drawn and quartered thing. I can't get my head around that level of cruelty in medieval times. I had to be escorted from the cinema back door and had to walk home, avoiding public transport due to my distress....[biting lip smilie required here]. Named my son Wallace after the movie (well I was pregnant with him at the time and I'm Scottish...:))

One Flew Over the Cookoo's Nest - when Jack Nicholson walks in with the labotomy. I was 16. Trauma city.

Awakenings - no need for explanations.

The Bear! OMG - crying again in a public cinema :o
 
Never actually cried, but wasn't too far off:

Schindler's List - I was 15 when this came out at the cinema. Nearly walked out half way through such were the emotions I experienced when watching it.

The Neverending Story - Gets me every time. Even now :(
 
for me it has to be

ARMAGEDDON

i watch it very often and gets me every time - ultimate movie though

:cry:
 
I was a little snuffly in the Talented Mr Riply. I had spent half of the film remembering Jack Davenport's name and then he buggering went and killed hiM!




I have tried to watched that seeing as I have had it since its release. Only got 2 hours through and fell asleep. I really need to finish it. The only bit which REALLY REALLY makes me cry is Sam carrying Frodo up the hill.
 
I can't say I have cried in a film.

One time I did cry was while listening to a song, it was DJ sammy - Heaven candlelight remix. The reason it was so sad was it was a september 11th version, and in between her singing you would hear this girl speaking about her dad who she lost in the attacks.
 
The Green Mile - when they kill Coffey & at the end
A.I.
Forrest Gump
LOTR - FOTR (where sam nearly drowns)
LOTR - ROTK (when pipin is singing for denathor)

Andy
 
I cried at Troy yesterday when Hector dies and Achilles ties him to his cart. I could bloody kill Achilles for doing that (well, obvioously... I couldnt)
 
most recently: The Passion of the Christ without a doubt.

others:

- Little Mermaid for some strange reason. You know the bit when she hugs triton and says " I love you daddy" and the music starts. *sigh*
- Terminator. When he goes into that cauldron of molten metal, that was the moment that got me.
 
God, just reading all your posts nearly had me in tears! Most of mine have already been mentioned:

Ghost - from the point of "what the hell is ditto?" & y sobbing gets progressively worse from the penny under the door to the end
Jerry McGuire - "you got me at hello"
Billy Elliott - totally inspiring, I felt like I'd been on an emotional rollercoaster when it finished
The Shawshank Redemption - just the sheer beauty of how a male frienRABhip is played - hope does set you free
Pretty In Pink - when Duckie's waiting for Andi at the prom
Some Kind Of Wonderful - where Keith realises Watts is in love with him
Titanic - I've never watched a film where NO ONE in the pictures moved for three hours - totally absorbing (shame about the crap script)
Bridget Jones Diary - "I like you, just the way you are"
The Champ - a friend of mine & her two sisters were so hysterical when they watched this as youngsters, they were banned from ever watching it again!
ET - I avoided it for years & years because people said it was sad & I hate anyone seeing me crying - but it caught me one Boxing Day - I had to leave the room as I didn't want to cry in front on my parents!
It's a Wonderful Life - I watched it one Christmas Eve & shed a few tears
Uncle Buck - when he's leaving at the end

All of these get me EVERY time I watch them! Lord, I'm clearly an emotional mess! :eek:

I've not seen 'Who Will Love My Children?' but I know my mum wept buckets at that - mind you, she took me to see Lassie Come Home at the pictures when I was about six & sobbed her heart out there!

I'm definately going to get some of the films I've seen mentioned here, that I've not seen, out because I do like a good weepie! :)

As for TV, I had to drink two bottles of wine to cope with the end of FrienRAB - I was getting more & more emotional as the series was ending - I cried all the way through but I don't even remember it because I was so drunk - I need to see it again! I ALWAYS cry at the the one with the prom video - "see, he's her lobster"
