Most people are really embarrassed to let others see them cry over a movie. But what particular scene that you could not help but cry while watching it whether all by yourself or with at least a companion? I would like to get a hint of humanity and values because we all differ.

Yes...:D Haha... Good thing the theater was dark and no one could see me crying.:D I was with my family, I didn't know why I cried. I just saw this boat (a toy) and I found myself in tears...:D

Sometimes, bits of memories could also drive us into tears if that particular memory of that experience was dug from our hearts out of an object or a line in s seemingly sober scene. That sometimes occur to me as well.

YES especially when it is too emotional. Once I cry for 3 hour straight. I don't mind crying in front of other people because it is normal and nothing that i should be ashamed off. Well the most recent movie that managed to move my eyes to tear is me and marley if i got the title right.

Crying is a healthy habit because it not only helps us to cope emotionally but also cleanses our eyes.

I do cry over a movie, especially when the scene is very touching.. So far, there are quite a munber of movies which succeeded in making me cry, no matter how many times i watched it.. haha =D BUt of course, i will only be crying if i'm wacthing it alone.. IF there are others around, i will try to hold back, or be looking for distractions around me, so that i wont be crying in front of them.. haha =D

Yes, I absolutely know what you're saying. It feels a lot better to cry while no one sees you. One of the reasons why most people are embarrassed to cry in front of others is that they lose poise too. Not many people can maintain their good face projection while crying.

I cry all the time during movies. Oh my goodness... I am such a baby! lol! The movies I have cried the most in are Titanic, Marley & Me, ET, and PS: I Love You. These movies have made me cry so hard that I had to fight to keep my voice quiet. It is so embarrassing! I even cry during commercials sometimes! I am just very sensitive and I hate to see people hurting. I have learned to have a drink with me. When I feel the tears coming on, I start taking little sips. It seems to help a little bit.

I also tend to feel sorry for unfortunate characters in whatever movie or drama on TV I watch. If you cry, and you happen to be watching next to me, I might as well feel like crying. I also think being too sad is contagious.

I get carried away easily in the movies I'm watching so I do cry over sad movies and situations. And yes, some people laugh at me whenever they see me crying but I never mind them. Actually, I sometimes laugh at myself too. LOL!

You know what? I'm much more comfortable hanging around with individuals who easily feel sorry for others. Indeed, you got a lovely personality. Being given to empathizing is such a wonderful gift. It goes to the direction of compassion or mercy. And if we consult the Bible, the Lord wants us to be merciful. Proof: Matthew 5:7 Blessed are the merciful: for they shall obtain mercy. Another proof: Luke 6:36 Be ye therefore merciful, as your Father also is merciful.

That's true. It's as true as the fact that we all differ in our sensibilities. I'm also hesitant to let other people know what I really like when I feel that they will make fun of it. It's just making yourself vulnerable if you let them know.

I cried over Longtime Companion. It's a movie about the AIDS crisis. It's a beautiful movie, but so sad. It's a movie about a circle of friends who decrease of the AIDS crisis doing the '80's and 90's!

When I was a kid I would cry at Bambi when the mother was shot, Lion King when Mufasa was shot and during Free Willy when they were hurting the whale. A child losing a parent is horribly sad to me and I also cannot stand when an animal is being treated cruelly. Oh yeah, I also cried during The Fox and The Hound. It was so sad that an old childhood friends were forced to become enemies. There's probably other movies that made me cried, but those are the ones I remember at the moment.

For sure, I would also say that the first movies that made me burst into tears were those with scenes about characters losing their parents. Evidently, the theme of many declamation pieces performed widely among grade schoolers is exactly that.

Yes, I did cry over several movies. One that is vivid in my mind is 'Bobby the tears drops,' a movie made to mark the international year of the children' in the 1980s. Movies sometimes take hold of our emotions and we internalize those emotions and we can make express those emotions. I did cry several times.

hi, yes,and i cried for many movies and most of them are the story of the life of ordinary people,i could say that my eyes is very superficial and its really easy to cry in a drama,maybe it because i can relate to the story or maybe i am really been touched by the story.

hello, You know what I am a happy person but I usually cry whenever I seen a scene which is really touches my heart. Yes, Sometimes I am too shy to cry when I am with other people. but when I see the scene that is full of drama i feel the tears coming from my eyes.

It is not that often, if a person was a very vulnerable, they are tend to be emotional in watching movies.

When I was younger I cried over Beauty and the Beast. It was my favorite movie when i was younger. i also cried over Titanic. I just can't help it because I know the story and it just gets me every time. It's the perfect romeo and juliet except of course with he girl living on and the man dying at the end.

I guess it depends on the movie and the person. Me? I don't want to answer that...
