Is the notebbok good then? i haven't seen it, but heard of it

QUENTIN · #4 10-26-2009, 09:57 AM

Dead Man Walking consistently. Do The Right Thing, Grave of The Fireflies, and Magnolia the first time I saw them.

I'm very seldom scared or moved to tears by a movie, cynical bastard that I am. Generally, if I think a movie is trying to make me cry, my response is the opposite. The most recent movies that have gotten me the closest, where I felt like crying even if I didn't were the beginnings of Up and (oddly) The Baader-Meinhof Complex.

No movie made me cry more than the scenes in last two episodes of season 4 of The Wire between Randy and Carver.

Up.
I cried three times, both times I saw it.

Generally though I don't cry in movies, because, as this man might put it

"I'm not a lady"

I've gotten misty eyed and choked up at some movies, but Children of Men just about had me sobbing. Maybe because I became a uncle at the time, I don't know, but that was defintiely the movie where I just let it all out. Absolutely moving movie.

Natty · #11 10-26-2009, 08:47 PM

The Green Mile
Crash
Frost/Nixon

In all cases it was only a single manly tear. Same with the episode called Jurassic Bark in Futurama. Like Quentin, a TV programme has made me cry more than any movie, I had a full on baby crying session at the end of Lisa's Wedding (The Simpsons Season 6).

I CRIED MY EYES OUT!!!

Rawhead Andy · #15 10-27-2009, 02:53 AM

I don't really cry much, but here's what I do remember:

Actually cried= Forrest Gump (when he's talking to Jenny's grave)

Teary-Eyed= Saving Private Ryan, Unleashed, Crash (the scene where you think the little girl's been shot),

The most recent thing that made me bawl like a baby wasn't a movie, but a video game, surprisingly! The ending for 2002's Final Fantasy X was very moving to me, next thing I knew I was crying my heart out like a lost toddler. And it was a video game!!!!

Antonio141 · #16 10-27-2009, 10:54 AM

Surprising the hell outta me (in a good way) since I initially boycotted both Brangelina movies: The Curious Case Of Benjamin Button and Changeling. Like a knife in the gut! Also, Rachel Getting Married b/c it hit close to home, In The Line Of Fire when Clint Eastwood recalls the JFK assassination, and River Phoenix's breakdown/the final narration in Stand By Me.

SAI · #17 10-27-2009, 04:12 PM

Also, I wept like a little girl in Bridge to Terabithia

Imsomuchbetter · #18 10-27-2009, 06:50 PM

Boys don`t cry was an inaccurate title. That`s all I`ll say.

I didn't cry, but man did I feel "numb" after "Boys". Kinda the same feeling I got after watching Requiem For A Dream.

Emotionally draining is a good way to describe both of those films.

Le_Big_Mac · #20 10-27-2009, 09:34 PM

In lieu of movies that made me cry, which I have yet to see, here are some movies that are some movies that got me pretty close to being that sad/happy:

Grave of the Fireflies
Schindler's List
Where the Wild Things Are
The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King
Requiem for a Dream
The Ice Storm

I'll echoe Quentin and Natty's sentiments and say that the ending of the Simpsons episode in which Homer is reunited with his mother is worthy of getting teary-eyed over just as much as/more than any movie I've seen.

Hmm films that still make me cry

Stand By Me
Shawshank Redemption (Brooks, nuff said)
Deer Hunter
Radio Flyer (Such a sad film)
Rumble Fish
The Wrestler (I cried through the entire film on my first watch)

Off the top of my head, I am sure theres more

"They look like big, strong hands, don't they?" That part used to make me cry when I was little, as well as the horse. But since I became a man, big swingin-dick macho sonofabitch that I am, well I've bawled at several. The ending of Romeo & Juliet, the Luhrmann version, when that "Kissing You" song starts playing. The "Didn't Know I'd Love You So Much" scene in Repo! The Genetic Opera, which was odd because I really wasn't expecting it out of that movie. But most of all Man On Fire, I still cry like a little bitch through most of the second half. Especially the ending.

That's one movie I've never seen...and now I REALLY don't want to see it! I hate animal deaths even moreso than human killings!

Add any sad animal movie to my list: FLUKE, BABE, MY DOG SKIP, MARLEY & ME, etc.
