Movies that can make you bawl like a little baby

For me, It's A Wonderful Life and Spartacus

You?

The most manly tearjerker ever made.

I think "Forrest Gump" was probably the all-time winner, or possibly "Field of Dreams" ("Hey! Dad? You wanna have a catch?") A macho man I'm not.

I've seen it three times and cried like a two year old during the Slipping through my fingers part. My daughter started school last year and I'm so sentimental. And to make it worse I bought the soundtrack and cry to the song about three times a week. :cry:

As soon as I saw your post title saying "Mamma Mia", I knew it was the part where they sang "Slipping Through My Fingers". For me, it reminded me of losing my partner to cancer 5 years ago.

I'm not here much and just saw you post - I'm sorry to hear. Not that this helps but (((hug)))

Your daughter sounds like a lucky girl to have a mother like you.

not crying out loud at the end of "Dead Man Walking"

Pass it Forward is another one

I cried for HOURS.

The kids wanted to watch it, and my husband
WARNED us not to.

When he came into the livingroom and saw our
STRICKEN faces, he said, of course, "I TOLD you not to watch it."

We were ALL a mess.

to my great personal shame....

WARNING: SPOILERS

The scene close to the end of The Iron Giant where the Giant is flying up to intercept the missile and you hear Hogarth saying,"You are what you choose to be" and the Giant closes his eyes, smiles, and says,"Superman" just before he hits the missile chokes me up every time.

The other one is My Dog Skip. "I was an only child. He was an only dog."

Brad Bird wrote Iron Giant, The Incredibles, and Ratatouille. Not too shabby.

That was a terrific movie. I completely broke down at the end, after the kid goes to college, and Skip is old and trying to jump on his bed. I think the mother sees and helps him up, but I was crying too much to tell.

Armageddon

Amazing Grace and Chuck

crap
Even Harry and the Hendersons....

I cry at most movies......

my neighbor cried at Beverly Hills Chihuahua
and shes in her 60's

I have lots more but for now these are the ones I can think of


lost

Yeah, I know, I'm like that goofy general in Steven Spielberg's 1941. I can't help it.

I know there are others, but that pops into mind. The waterworks basically turned on the second it started and didn't end till it was over.

How does that do ya?

You knew that was coming didn't you?

Steel Magnolias
Best Little Whorehouse in Texas
Fried Green Tomatoes

Actually, you could read the phonebook with the right inflection, and I'd be bawling like a baby!

I'm a sap. Coke commercials can wipe me out.

When I saw Bridge to Terabithia, I had no idea what would happen, and the whole film I was identifying Annasophia Robb's character with my daughter. That ending wiped me out so badly that my kids still tease me about it. When they see a DVD of it in a store, they'll jump in front of it and say, "Don't look, dad!"

I'll never watch it or A Grave of Fireflies again.

I'm usually pretty impassionate at the movies, but that one hit me but good.

Bake

Yeah, I'm easy.

Trust me, all Godzilla fans were crying after that one.

before or after it goes through your heart?

Just kidding, I actually wish I was more like you, I cry at EVERYTHING!

I don't get emotionally attached to them. I just watch them just to watch them.

1. When the sisters are separated. :cry:

2. "See, Daddy - sinners have soul too!" :cry:

3. When the sisters are reunited. :cry:

I made it all the way to the end, and then they showed the film of him as a little boy, and I heard that damn Neil Young song...:cry:

Where the Adam Sandler character has gotten to the point in his life where he knows he is going to see his father for the last time and he just blows him off. Then he keeps rewinding that last time with his father because he feels so bad about how he just treated him and that he knows he'll never get to see him again.

For some reason, I just felt so sad at that point--and both my parents are still alive. Perhaps because I watched that movie with my parents. I dunno--you just don't want to think about the day when your parents are no longer around.

(penguins have hard lives), etc.

the part where Sassy hears Shadow and Chance barking and starts running, then they all meet up and kiss each other in slow motion. I'm such a sucker for animals. I cry every single time. :cry:

Also,
The part of The Goonies, where Sean Astin (Mikey) tells them to stop taking the coins, because they are somebody else's dreams and wishes and that it is their time down there...then the part where One Eyed Willy's pirate ship cuts loose and starts sailing on its own. :cry:

Damn, I laugh and cry all through that movie. It's my most favorite of them all. I love the part where the bats come out from behind the rock and Corey Feldman is saying "Sit! Sit" and Martha Plimpton is saying, "Rabies! Rabies!" :rofl:

Especially at the end, when Shadow is the last to come back, jumps on his boy and says "I was so worried about you!" Never fails to get to me.

Also, there's a scene in the beginning when Shadow is playing with his boy and says "You're the best boy in the world!" For me, Shadow is the ultimate dog and I like to think my little darlings are like that.

I also love the scene where Sassy is running from the guy in the pound. The guy says "Here, kitty, kitty, kitty..." and Sassy says "No, dummy, dummy, dummy..." Makes me laugh like hell.

I love it when Sassy is saying, "She won't. She won't. She won't. She won't. She won't." I also love the catapult scene and the scene where she says, "No I couldn't. Well....if you insist."

oh my...that ending...and that Mary Chapin Carpenter song. :cry:

Also Imitation of Life. The Lana Turner version. Totally ahead of it's time, and when she comes back to her mother's funeral, you have to possess a heart of stone not to weep buckets!

Once was enough.

Shattering.

the ending when he gets the job. wow.

and goofy as it may be, fox and the hound

:cry: I was reading down the thread to see if anyone named it!

E.T., Schindler's List

:cry: :cry: :cry:

Cried till I puked on the last one

The Joy Luck Club
E.T.
The Color Purple
Monsoon Wedding

Titanic (NO, not that piece o' crap - talking about the 1952 version with Clifton Webb and Barbara Stanwick)

But the movie that made me cry most of all was the first time I saw "A Tale of Two Cities" with Dirk Bogarde - I was 14 or 15 at the time, and had NO familiarity with the book. So every scene was a surprise, and the ending had me weeping for days.

I think I'll just curl up with my bankey now, thank you ...

Father of the Bride.

Lots more...I just can't think of 'em right now.

Oh...except Brian's Song. I just thought of that one.

And The Green Mile.

I know it's cheesy but ever since I was a kid it has torn me up...

It's an old, old movie. The ending is heartbreaking.

selected scenes. Usually a throwaway line of dialog that grabs me by the throat and slams me on the floor because it speaks to something difficult in my life at the time.

Cried for hours!

when the children die. I can't make it through those scenes without at least one tear.
