One movie goer claims that she watched "Titanic" the movie starring Leonardo Di Caprio and Kate Winslet , at least 20 times when it first came out . Even though it is a great movie, I could only watch it twice because I felt too sad at the end. I couldn't even console myself by thinking - "Oh, it is only a movie" - because the Titanic disaster really happened.
Do you like watching sad movies? can you name one movie that made you cry.?

The first movie that I can recall that made me cry was Beaches. I'm sure there were others along with Titanic (but I only saw that a few times)

I like movies for many reasons. My Fair Lady and Sound of Music I watched twice and that was enough I like to watch sad movies but since after watching them the first time one gets to know the ending it would not be the same watching them again.

Titanic came out when my kids were young and I recall going to the movie theatre three times and another dozen or more times on video. The kids love it.

one love story that i like watching over and over again is not actually a very sad movie. it is somewhat comedy-drama. i shed a tear watching it because it is the favorite film of my late mother, and this is "ever after", starring Drew Barrymore.

@Kandae11 yes, and that story has some amusing scenes like Leo da Vinci with his invention of shoes that can walk on the water. the Cinderella story imbibed in the movie is so realistic, so unlike what i presented in fairy tale books

Yes " step mom" but I usually do not watch what people call chic flicks. I do not like crying and I will because I will get into it.

Several, the original Love Story was a major tear jerker, along with Terms of Endearment and The Way We Were. Oh and if you really feel like crying get your hands on the made for TV movie Brian's Song..now if that doesn't get you in the heart strings you are likely made of stone..

I don't know if I like to watch sad movies but most movies that are a true story there is usually sadness in it. I watched a sad movie last night based on a true story.

Once was enough for me (re: that specific movie). I could watch detective & spy movies over and over (that is, if I had forgotten how they went), but romantic movies with loving and parting scenes, ouch, not for me! (I avoid sad movies or sad anything with all cost, now, if they were sad and haunting piece of music or poems, THAT would be different again .)

Titanic was sad but watchable. I watched a movie named Sadma (Bollywood : 1983) which was well made but had a sad ending, and I would not like to watch it again though I love its songs.

Definitely , Titanic, it always makes me cry. Like you, I have not watched it as much as some, because it saddens me so. Also, another movie that really upsets me is the 1968 version of Romeo and Juliet. Have you seen that version?
