Movies that make you cry (a softie thread) - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

What are the movies that you have seen that just make you reach for the tissues? Sometimes I just want to watch a movie and cry. One of those would be:

Steel Magnolias

I have never cried at a film- I'm not really a crying person- but two films, only two films ever made me well up, eyes water- but no bawling eyes out and crying- the two films were-

The Green Mile just after Del's mouse is killed, (sometimes still well up with this scene) And

Dead Man Walking (just saw this last week) when Susan Sarandon's character is singing the hymn to Sean Penn's character.

I never well up in those films like My Girl or Now and Then, none of those 'Friend's Forever' kinda films that have tragedy in them. Some other films I just feel real sad watching them, I couldn't really name them though- films mainly with animal cruelty or really evil bullying in it.

I absolutely love the Anne of Green Gables movies. I really enjoyed the first two movies in the series. The third one they made around 99 was okay, but it still made me cry.

Forrest Gump is another one that makes me cry. Ah, I forgot Gone with the Wind.

About the only one that comes to mind is "The Green Mile." My eyes get kind of wet at several places. I find many movies deeply moving, but that is the only one I can think of that actually gets the water works going.
