I'm man enough to admit that Field of Dreams makes me cries at least 6 times EVERY time I see it. What does it for you? | ||

I like "The Shawshank Redemption" because it reflects the way I feel about my life -- seemingly endless slogging punctuated by great breakthroughs that make it all worthwhile. | ||

I think I've only cried at one movie. "Running On Empty" (1988) with Judd Hirsch, River Phoenix, Christine Lahti, Martha Plimpton. Directed by Sidney Lumet. It's about the post-Vietnam era and the havoc and discontinuity that the war brought to peoples' lives. It tears a family apart, a family with tremendous love for each other. But, the war, and their reactions to it, make it impossible for them to continue as a family. Really heartbreaking. I guess I'm a child of that era and I lived through it. I'm tearing up jes' thinkin' about it. Anyone seen it? | ||

Mr. T - yea, I love that movie too... Just Me - I cried at Simon Birch & Pay it Forward too and Steel Magnolias, Gone With the Wind, and at the end of Hair. I'm sure there's more, but I just can't think of them right now. | ||

I've cried at MANY movies, but hands down, the one that had me all out sobbing, bawling my eyes out, I saw recently... The Notebook. Worst part was that I was on an AIRPLANE! Talk about embarrassing! But trust me, tears aside, this was a wonderful story about total love and devotion. Yes, it's a chick flick - but go rent it! | ||

Steel Magnolias....alhtough I felt completely manipulated and hated it even though I was crying. But the numero uno cryfest was Terms of Endearment. And that was even before I became a parent! | ||

Absolutely, "Field of Dreams". My dad and I watched it together, and we were both teared out by it. | ||

I cry at pretty much 75% of the movies I see, as well as tons of tv shows and some sappy commercials. I keep a tissue box beside me all of the time. The hubster on the other hand I have only seen cry a handful of times in 17 years, mainly for deaths and births. And then there was "Rudy". | ||

It's not strictly a movie and I don't know if they even show this anymore, but I have distinct memories (perhaps scars) of bawling while watching Nestor the Long-Eared Donkey as a child. I don't know if anyone else has seen it - all of my friends look at my like I'm crazy when I tell them about it. Somehow they managed to avoid it during their formative years. Anyway I'm still bitter towards my mother for letting me watch it. . . | ||

How Green Was My Valley (1941 John Ford masterpiece from Llewellyn's novel about a Welsh mining family's tribulations and hardships. Great cast incl. young Roddy Mcdowell- and those Welsh singers...) Local Hero (harder to explain--odd touching film about how we let life get away) | ||

"To Kill a Mockingbird" and "The Yearling". Must be a Gregory Peck thing. Dave, I got a chance to see The Bicycle Thief recently, 30 years after seeing it for the first time. I'd forgotten how good it was. | ||
