Title explains it all. =D

Mine would have to be Prayers for Bobby. Luckily, everyone was out the house when I watched it. I was bawling my eyes out at it, it was so sad. That (so far) is the first and only film I've cried at it.

What about you?

RueBea85 · 15th Aug 2012, 03:00 PM

Wow, really? I cry at a lot of movies!

Titanic
One True Thing
The Bucket List
I Am Sam
RENT
Tangled
The Lion King
Hannah Free
I can't really think of any more, but those are the first ones that come to mind lol.

Shevanel · 15th Aug 2012, 03:10 PM

Duh.

Rarar · 15th Aug 2012, 03:18 PM

I don't know what it is...I just don't cry at movies or books. Only at real life.

julia · 15th Aug 2012, 04:35 PM

I think it was the Lion King.

paul · 15th Aug 2012, 04:37 PM

I cannot remember but most recently, Toy Story 3. I don't cry too much but when Lotso came back and realized his little girl had replaced him, it hurt.

Rarar · 15th Aug 2012, 04:52 PM

^Oh yeah, I was close to tears at the ending.

Brenny · 15th Aug 2012, 04:54 PM

I have gotten misty eyed in just a few movies (only when a character is crying). I am having a hard time remembering which ones but the only movie that I have honestly balled my eyes out over was Prayers for Bobby. I think anyone on here who has seen it has also felt the same way about it.

It was one of those movies where after watching it, laying down in bed, I just couldn't sleep it bothered me so much and I probably cried again. Took a couple days to get that movie out of my head and all those feelings that came with it.

Even after accidentally reading what happened on Wikipedia before watching it....oh...that movie really touched me in a way nothing has ever before.

midwestgirl89 · 15th Aug 2012, 10:10 PM

Probably Old Yeller. Or like Shevanel said, The Land Before Time.

ANightDude · 15th Aug 2012, 11:17 PM

War Horse. Fucking hate that movie because of it.

Toy Story 3 is an evil film, i have never cried at a film but that one brought me so damn close. When they hold hands in the Furness and when Andy gives his toys away. I was biting my knuckles and coughing to hold back the tears. Evil film.

While not a film, but i think it deserves a mention. Futurama. With the most unnecessarily sad episode ever made. When Frys dog waits for him outside the pizza shop for the rest of his life, it hurts to even think about it.

Ok i have something wrong with me, i can watch The Green Mile, The Bucket List and other typically sad films and i dont get an emotional reaction. Give me a sad cartoon and im fighting back the tears.

katydidmischief · 16th Aug 2012, 03:18 AM

What Dreams May Come. There's a scene between the husband and wife that just kills me. Still does.

Pseudojim · 16th Aug 2012, 04:47 AM

first film? Homeward bound, i think.

As an adult:

I Am Sam got me, i am ashamed to say

also Seven Pounds

WillowMaiden · 16th Aug 2012, 05:12 AM

It's between Simon Birch and I Am Sam. Not sure which one I watched first, but I know I watched both around the same time and both had me in tears! My first and favorite tear jerkers. I love movies that make me cry and so the list of all movies that's made me weep is pretty long. I'm a complete sap and I love it.

qboy · 16th Aug 2012, 12:33 PM

Can't remember for definite the ones that made me cry as a kid, vague recollection of Lion King and Bambi and one about some dogs that get lost in a hilly city when there owners move house and are struggling to get home. Oh, and the TV show Animals of Farthing Wood. Obviously had more of a connection to animals when I was a kid!

As an adult there have been only three films...

Both The Green Mile and Senna (for some odd reason when the female presenter was going "a kiss for 89, a kiss for 90...." - I instinctively knew she was only going to get to 1993) brought a tear to my eye

But the only film which has made me properly cry was Prayers for Bobby, could not get to sleep after watching it - after an hour of trying I gave up and ended up watching some comedy just to try and get to sleep.

cBuilding · 16th Aug 2012, 01:34 PM

I think the opening to Lion King still gets me..

That, and the "You might think" song during Cars 2. That, I actually have reason to.

mischa91 · 16th Aug 2012, 03:22 PM

the land before time and Dumbo get me every single time.

who am i kidding, i cry at everything; i never used to and all of a sudden i turned into a weeper.

sugarcubeigloo · 16th Aug 2012, 04:39 PM

I almost NEVER tear up when it comes to movies... but Marley and Me did it.
