Crying when watching a movie/program

Nuravictus

Ok post which movie you cried at or tv program lads & ladies :P

When he makes the comeback, Just a single tear "the Russian is cut, the russian is cut." & then the ending speech its all Epic. I can say I have never have a tear appear in my eyes in a love story movie or anything like that. I admit I do hide it thou with the "Ohh something is in my eye" :P

oh god, im awful. basically anything where people die, im a mess.

so i avoid pretty much all dramas. stick to cartoons and comedies. im miserable enough during real life, without watching stuff to make me more upset.

oddly, i always get a bit emotional during the weirdest moments.

surf's up - towards the end, when

cody stops tank smashing chicken joe

finding nemo - when they finally find nemo. i blubber.

there's a million others. im awful. emotional wreck.

oh god, even just browsing the boards, and my fella watching some drama, and gets to an emotional bit, im after shedding some tears.

35mm-negative

Titanic !!!

When the ship is about to go under forever,
cut to very old couple on bed cuddling,
cut to mom reading her kids Tir na Nog,
desprate faces of people knowing their about to die and nothing can be done,
added with great orchastra music ,ohhhh......the cinema heard me cry that day.

best cry from a movie in my books

Brokeback Mountain made me blub, and I rarely cry at films.
At Cinema Paradiso, I bawled. The music is so beautiful too it's hard not to get emotional.

The old reliables like The Champ and It's A Wonderful Life bring a tear to my eye. I cried reading the Green Mile and I cried in the cinema watching it, even though I knew what was coming.

I was stifling a laugh at Titanic, it was so cheesy and overblown.

Rozabeez

Big Fish (Literally hours of crying after that one), The Wind that shakes the barley, Pay it Forward, City of angels, American History X, Hard Ball (oh god, G-Baby!)...if it's sad, I'll cry, pretty much.

stovelid

I remember tearing up at This is my Father. Maybe at the end of the English Patient as well.

Rozabeez

oh oh and the kite runner.

Pherekydes

During "Fifty First Dates" when Adam Sandler is standing around with a bunch of short term memory patients chatting to them and they keep forgetting stuff in like 10 seconds. That made me cry.

Other than that oddity, the usual suspects:

Gladiator
Schindler's List
Airplane (I laughed till I cried)
The sound of the wife's car in the driveway. :rolleyes:

Galvasean

Still gets me...

I cried with laughter at the Famil Guy piss take. Pure genius

Braveheart - The ending (when Wallace screams 'freedom' while being tortured). I was 10 at the time.

The Wire - When Mike says goodbye to Bug and Dukie. Hard not to get emotional. Just a few weeks ago.

Shrek - Made me cry with laughter for most of the film. One of the greatest of all time.

The Lion King - When the lion fell off the cliff after fighting with Scarface. I blubbered.

They're the ones I remember. Probably weren't anymore actually. I'm hard.

Aisling(",)

the lion king

when simbas dad is killed

the notebook

when the old ally has to be sedated and dosent know noah

Dirty dancing

jellie

GirlInterrupted

At the end of Brokeback Mountain
The ending of The Notebook
The end of The Shipping News
The end of When Harry Met Sally
The bit in Bambi when his Mummy dies
The bit in Dumbo where the mummy elephant puts her trunk out between the bars and rocks baby Dumbo...

And the old episode of Frasier, where Niles and Daphne dance the tango and he thinks she's declaring her feelings for him, but she tells him she was just playing along...

themadchef

Beaches


Why do we sit through movies that will make us the emotional equivalent of jelly fish? Never watched tearjerkers after crying through Beaches. Hate crying :mad:.. i like laughing, so give me something to cry laughing at.

Heard wonderful stuff about "the notebook" but you'd have to put a gun to my head to get me to watch it.

Caoimhín

In the name of the father.

I blubbed like a baby the last time i saw it, however there may have been drink involved..

Jules

Not enough room for me to list them all.. i cry at the drop of a hat!

:rolleyes:

I cry every time I watch 50first dates, seriously almost all the way through..she has to remember everything all over again everyday *sob*

haha but The Pianist was the worst/best...when Adrien Brody nearly gets shot I almost died crying and when he couldnt open the tin, and then he did and it spilled....oh weep weep clutching of asp to bosom. I love to cry during films, I never cry in real life.

Reku

Oddly enough was just looking some clips relevant to this, didn't cry for any of these but did find them really sad:

• Full Metal Alchemist - series end, there were a few other really sad bits in that series, e.g. the last time they face sloth.
• Full Metal Alchemist - movie end
  
• This little cartoon strip has a sad note to it too if you've watched the series and movie IMO:
  
  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sxPlIHIlPnI
  
  
• Babylon 5 - Tragedy of telepaths
  
  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WLi0XZav9-A
  
  
• Babylon 5 - Sleeping In Light
  
  Both the above series are great for making you really care about the characters.:(
  
• The end of the film Powder.
  
• Betty Blue,
  where he smothers her with the pillow
  .
  
• Armageddon,
  the scene where Harry takes AJ's place
  (I know odds are everyone's seen this but best to err on the safe side).
  
• 30 Days of Night
  
  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LoIgj_qK3oY
  
  
• At the end of The Butterfly Effect.

All Dogs go to Heaven. Cannot stop the tears.

Kya1976

I'd rarely cry when watching a film or show but I did remember not being able to stop crying when I watched 'once we were warriors'

Futurecrook

It would probably be easier for me to make a list of the films/programs I haven't cried at but these are the first few that come to mind...

The Holiday - when he's talking about being a widower...

Mar Adentro - In a big way. I was on the verge of tears the whole way through this film. Poignant isn't the word for it.

The episode of Lost where

Charlie dies

.

This is my Father.

pretty much sums me up to a T.

the latest for me would be in the latest episode of prison break

the tearjerking speech t-bag gave about bellick after he heard he had died.

Silverfish

Big Fish

The Iron Giant

And the RTE 'Stardust' programme had me crying for a while too, but that was for real real, that was something that actually mattered, and made me feel guilty for crying at the two above.

somethingwitty

I never really cry at movies or anything and I always love having a great laugh at people who do...

But this never fails to get me...


http://fr.youtube.com/watch?v=MODq81_cDKI


Also the end of Riding in Cars With Boys... at the end when she is going home in the car with her dad and theyre singing Dream Dream Dream... even when I listen to that song itself I turn into a mess!!!!!!!

Dammit, that should carry a health warning.

(for curious soles the linky is 'bright eyes', with the watership down rabbit animation)

*snuffle*

She Devil

I cry at everything, I'm the worst,

The last thing I really really cried at was Liam dying in coronation Street, Oh my god, for two hours afterwards I was crying and when I went to bed I was even blubbing.

If i listed the things i cried at we would be here for the day.

pow wow

Beaches always does it for me. Can't stand to watch it!

LightningBolt

The Lion King. Tear jerker, have never been able to watch a film since...:(

Got a bit teary at that too.

I wasn't the brightest child and always though Bambi had just gotten lost or him mummy had run away when she heard the hunters. I never actually realised she ws shot until someone mentioned it a few years ago!

I was just going to link to that, never have I cried so much at a film! When I was really little my mum and I used to watch it cuddled up together and bawl at that bit. Saw it again about a year ago and it was still really sad

I also cried loads during a Walk to Remember when

whassherface says she has leukemia and the guy takes her to do all the things she wanted to do.

GirlInterrupted

^^^ I forgot about that last one!

Good to know I'm not the only overly sentimental emotional type out there!

Clare Bear

I cry at EVERYTHING! I'm such a gobshite! Doesn't matter if it's happy or sad, if there's any bit of emotion at all involved I'm gone. I really need to learn how to stop the tap, biggest sap ever!

Toots

Jebus, I cry at anything!! The movie I cried most at was Stepmom funnily enough. I think the reason was I was exhausted when I was watching it, and my sister was watching it with me so I was trying not to show I was crying, then looked up and saw she was blubbing away too!!! Gods we were a total mess!!!

Books make me cry too, if I'm reading in bed at night my OH will often wake up to find me sobbing into a handful of tissues over a book!

BlondePrincess

Hollyoaks when Max Died. . .
The Notebook. . . :(:(:(:(
Click. . . :(
Titanic. . .Obviously. . .:(:(:(:(:(
Song For a Raggy Boy. . .:(:(:(
This Is to name but a few, I cry at everything

Crumble Froo

does anyone else do it during the actually touching, uplifting bits, where friends come through for each other, or families sort problems out and stuff. i get why i might cry during the sad moments... but why do i always have to cry when there's nice moments too?! ???

Ah it's nice to know I'm not alone, everyone was making me feel like a big freak until I saw this thread

Crumble Froo

yeah, specially cos im not generally all that girly, i do often surprise people by getting all blubby... oh god, flashback to the feckin pokémon film... i can't handle other people crying!

ha, used to only watch telly while i was drinking, too, and people would accuse me of being waaayyy overly drunk when they saw me crying, only to discover that i do actually do it while sober.

Clare Bear

lol Crying at Pokemon? Ah Crumble! You win!

Another classic sad moment in a film would be in Highlander

when Connor buries his wife after having to watch her slowly grow old over the years yet he stayed young

.

Suppose in season 4 of the 4400

when Shawn kills his brother, Danny, to put him out of his pain

.

I'm a big softy.

Last week i got a bit teary at some of the news reports and tv specials for the 90th anniversary of armistice day. It was all the old, black and white footage of the really young soldiers marching off to hellish conditions in the trenches....and then some footage of old men looking sad as they remembered their fellow soldiers who had died had me bawling.

LivingDeadGirl

Bawled at the end of The Notebook recently, hadn't seen it before.

Acacia

Does anyone know a film from around 1994 called 'A Little Princess''? I always cry at the end of that.

BalletFreq

My Girl (when I was 8!)
Titanic (only coz everyone else told me i'd cry!)
Harry Potter (when Cedric dies, yes i know, it's awfl, but my 21 year old friend died last year, so it's real heart ache when i see someone young die on tv/film!)
I got tears in my eyes during PS.. I Love You

Eh..
probably others, but i can't remember them now

Beaches cause the title song was played at my mas funeral
