[nihonnyanko152]

Some of mine have already been mentioned earlier:

Lion King
E.T.
Schlinders List
Moulin Rouge

but would like to add

The Deer Hunter (When Michael plays Russian Roulette to try and save Nick)
Dancing with Wolves (when two socks dies...)
Far from Heaven

[~Duhh Random~]

Ok I'm a 37 year old hairy straight bloke and the ones that always get me are :

Tarka The Otter
Silent Running
Born Free
Mighty Joe Young
Watership Down

but more than any other (I blub through the last third of it every time)

The Three Lives of Thomasina

Who Will Love My Children - OMG I cried buckets :cry: :cry: :cry:

[R.I.P my peter pan]

"Sophie's Choice"

I would never subject myself to watching it again.
It still haunts me.

[SPOILER]Her "choice" was to be made choose one of her children to be murdered in Auschwitz.
She chooses to save her son Jan who is sent to the children's camp and her daughter Eva is sent to her death.[/SPOILER]

[MissV]

I watched it last night, was realistic. very sad film

City of Angels - with Nicolas Cage & Meg Ryan, makes me sob, great film!

Hope Floats - Sandra Bullock, a great heartwarming film, first it makes you cry with sadness, then by the end cry with happiness, fantastic film!

[Bubba G.]

Paul Haggis' Crash

The two standout scenes are when Matt Dillon's cop has to pull a hysterical Thandie Newton from her upside down, crashed and burning car, only hours after sexually assaulting her during a routine traffic stop....

...and the scene where the little girl runs out to protect her dad from being shot by the store owner...

Apart from some overly preachy moments about racism, a great film...

A.I. (Artificial Intelligence, probably the film that's made my face wetter than any other)
E.T.
Gone With the Wind (predictable, huh?)
Lady and the Tramp (where they are eating spaghetti out the back of the bistro and the waiter comes and waits on them. Ahhhhh! )

Oh yeah, and Meet Jo Black
Actually, Memento gives me a lump in my throat in a funny sort of way. I think it's the sad music, and the acting of Guy Pearce - he's fab in it.
Titanic
Saving Private Ryan

[Brown]

Some thoughtless idiot thought that 'The Notebook' was the ideal film to show as an in flight movie - I felt so stupid going through customs and baggage collection with bright red mascara smudged eyes after sobbing my heart out for the last half hour of the flight back from Havana to Gatwick!

awakenings

i hadn't seen it at the cinema so when it came on the television i looked forward to seeing it
my two children had both already seen it and said they were too busy to watch it again and disappeared!
i watched it and was absolutely heartbroken and wasn't just crying but was sobbing and this continued for most of the evening...it really affected me
my children said they had gone out because it was such a sad film and they were not ready for a repeat just yet!
it was all the more upsetting because it was a true story.
