True Tear Jerkers---What Movies Made you Cry?  

I know what you mean, I'm the same way. I could watch movies and it hits a soft spot in my heart, I can't help but let the tears come rolling down...lol

I'm a big cry baby...

Yea Stella with Bette Middler just gets to me very time. Firend Green Tomatoes is a terrific movie too. they both get the water works going for me.

hay i dont cry watching movies but while watching 'passion of christ' i figured tears on my eyes. it was such an awesome movie. and when i first saw 'armageddon' i really cried! but hay i was a kid then! i didnt watch greenmile.. i think i should check it out...

I totally agree with the Passion of the Christ graphic brutality being a tear jerker....can you imagine being present at the time of this occured?

Yes and I loved it. Actually watched it a couple more times and cried like it was the first time..lol...

Yes it is very hard to find great movies like that one. I can say If you ever hear of a good one now-a-days please share..lol...

Thank you for responding...

hehehehe awwwww...Yes, The GreenMile was really a excellent movie, the casting everything was just perfect. It was almost like I got inside the characters mind and felt what they felt. That's when you know it's a very good movie...

There is nothing wrong with shedding a tear :)

Too cute, when optimus prime died...awwwww, Yeah you were a TRUE Transformers fan...I enjoyed it myself. Would watch it before I went out to catch the school bus..

Thanks for sharing and responding...

i agree to what joey stated. i also found green mile boring at the start since the movie is too long. but later on, after some minutes of watching it, i already get hooked on the movie and can't get off my seat anymore. i don't want to miss a thing!

I had to giggle on this one...no offense.
But I can't say any different since I cried twice for E.T.
E.T. was convincibly real. But you cried on a cartoon?
Not to poke fun, but it makes me want to sit down analyze feature films with the kiddos to make sure they can comprehend.

Optimus Prime?
Ok Joey, you were after all only six.
Thanks for the smile...I needed that.

I will have to check that one out...I love good movies and hopefully this topic will direct me to see some good movies and I can come back and respond to did it really touch me like it did you...

Yes the elephant man was really sad, I cried on and off throughout that whole movie...

Thanks for the suggestion, I will have to check that out..Also thank you for responding

The Elephant man is a very sad story, do you know they still have his skeleton on display with his head preserved in formaldehyde in a hospital in London? He was tiny I was about 8 when I saw this and he was smaller than me but British people were smaller in Victorian times apparently.

And "Watership Down" is a moving one too don't think it made me cry however even when I was a kid. Though the bit where fiver has a vision of the warren being destroyed at the beginning used to freak me out.

Ahhhh, I don't think I've seen that one, But I will check it out...

Yes, when the ship sank and they were out in the water, holding on, she woke up to realize he was dead..and had to let him go drift down into the water...I can't tell you how many times I've watched that movie. Because of channels like HBO, you get to see them on and off for months at a time, and if I catch it on, I would watch it all over again...

The GreenMile was the topper for me. That movie really moved me and I only watched it a few times as I know I would just buss out crying and saying it's just so wrong..

Thank you for responding...

I know what you mean...I hate to watch it too..As I said in a previous response, I only watched it a couple times...lol

I agree with you, I try to stay away, but you just can't help it..lol...

Oh yes Powder, I forgot about that movie, that was very sad as well..Yes I teared up on that as well..How those people treated him..gawd...just sad...

I understand what you mean about being real compassionate person and my heart always get into the movies IF it's directed with good taste...I always end up feeling for a character in the movie....You have a wonderful also and thank you for responding...

Ghost is so great because it can have you laughing so hard that you start crying and then it just grabs at your heartstrings and the waterworks just start flooding out. It is a terrific movie.

Powder is also a great movie that I seem to forget about too often. I wonder why that is.

Ahhh the Color Purple, Yes That was a excellent movie as well...I see you get into those tear jerking heartfelt movies as I do...You have a very good selection too..

As always thank you for responding...

Oh Yes I enjoyed both of those movies..believe it or not, when I was in school we got to watch Steel magnolia's.

Excellent choices and both great movies..

Thank you for sharing and responding...

Awww that just means you are a very compassionate person and there is nothing wrong with a guy tearing or crying at a movie..It's actually cute :)

I never seen London, but thank you for sharing that movie with me..Also, thank you for responding...

Awww the way you spoke on the movie "crying over my life" sounds like a movie I would enjoy...I will have to check that out myself...

Very true, sometimes you think about yourself when watching some movies, it just happens...
