everyone has a movie that makes them cry. i just watched the anne of green gables and cried buckets during the movie. it doesnt help that i am sick either...
is anne of green gables, the continuing story (made in 2000) anne shirley and gilbert blythe finally get married during the early days of world war 1 and being a doctor, gilbert decides to enlist to serve for his country (canada!) and goes off to france.
anne stays at green gables and gets all the letters that she has written to gilbert returned to her. she decides to go to europe amidst the fighting and search for her husband.
i cried when anne finally spots gilbert after he has been a pow during the final days of ww1 (they are in germany, where she is gone hunting for him). (it is a must see!)
another is the stepmother with julia roberts in it. what movie do you cry at?

I cry every single time watching Armageddon. That is one movie we love to watch over & over. Hubby watches it often, of course when it comes on I'm right there with him. I don't cry at many movies but this one does it to me every time, it is such a touching movie. Hubby makes fun of me along with my 2 sons....look she's crying haha I think hubby gets choked up too but doesn't want to admit or show it, men!!!???

I know so many men who cry at that movie. Literally weep buckets of tears. I think especially Daddies of little girls when Bruce Willis tells Ben Affleck it's his turn to take care of his little girl.
But the part that gets me is when the one guy's ex-wife brings his little boy to see him when they land. Because he didn't even know his daddy and now he gets to know him as a hero.

I tend to cry in almost every emotional movie. That is why I avoid watching such emotional movies.

Pay It Forward
The first time I saw it was at school, where I taught junior high. Part of it was shown as part of a program that the school was doing. Then another teacher and I decided to show the entire movie as a reward for the incentive program we did with our students. I didn't get to see the entire movie, as I was the door monitor, and was also keeping an eye on another classroom where the kids who didn't make the movie were being housed with a substitute teacher. BUT I did get to see the ending, and I will admit that I had to hold back the tears. Since then I have seen it many times and I cry every time even though I know what is going to happen. If I see that it is on the television, I will watch it, because it is that good.

One movie that made me bawl like a baby was "Empire of the Sun." Most recently I cried in "We Are Marshall," at least that is the one I remember most recently. The movie was over a year ago.

I will usually avoid movies that make me cry if I am aware of it beforehand. I once saw a movie called My Dog Skip. It was just so sad that I couldn't stand it. Of course I am a dog lover and it just tore my heart out. Life is hard enough without purposely adding to it. I would rather watch a movie that scares my socks off.

It's a guy thing for me, I find it difficult to cry at the best of times, but there are two films that will get me crying but don't laugh at one of them I mention because it's true it really has me reaching for the mansize. The first is obviously Titanic now that will make any grown adult cry for sure, and secondly it's Star Wars, ok stop laughing but it's thinking about that lovely little boy turning into Darth Vader and when he turns he starts to kill the younglings, it's a story I know but it gets me everytime, damn I am too sensitive LOL.

I never cried as hard as I did when I watched the movie "Losing Isiah". Anything that has to do with a mother losing a child will bring me to tears.

I always cry when I'm watching the movie, "The Way We Were" with Barbra Streisand and Robert Redford. It's such a tear-jerking story. But I do love that movie. Also, the movie, "Beaches" where the 2 women are friends and one is dying of cancer. That movie is quite sad.
I've never seen "Ann of Green Gables" but I think I read the book several years ago. I should try to watch that movie sometime.

Movies that made me cried are the following:
If Only
The Notebook
Titanic
Pay It Forward
The Ghost
A Walk To Remember
If you will notice almost all are love stories except for "Pay It Forward" which is more centered on the courage and effort and sacrifice of a kid.

Actually, the hollywoods movies has so much more to offer when it comes to emotions.
But, to be quite candid, inspite of all those emotional scences-they only make me
upset and little carried away.
Yea...there's is a movie, i nearly pour one tears.
It's 'A walk to Remember'...
I just love that movie...
