Films that made j00 cry

[Lester]

O.k. you wusses have been banging on about how buffy makes you cry in another thread, so how about about telling us what PROPER films have made you cry.........

I of course have never cried at a film.
























err.. apart from Field Of Dreams



















Oh yeah and Green Mile, but that's it. Oh no, hang on....

/me goes to get a pen.......

 

[Summo]

Blimey. Quite a few, probably.

Last night I watched Raising Arizona (new DVD! \o/) and shed a tear at the part where little Arizona is sitting on the sofa and Nick Cage and Holly Hunter watch him, look at heach other and their faces say it all.

"What are you kidding me, we got us a family here!"

Coen brothers rule.

 

[Damini]

Green Mile... arghh... I cried from when the mouse died until the end of the film.

Requiem for a Dream. That speech... "I'm old...".

The Snowman, Bambi, any shite cartoon ever that has had anything nice dying in it.

I'm an emotional whore. These films just come along with their tragedy by numbers, use and abuse me, and then chuck me aside. I know the plot can be transparent, I can see the weepy suckerpunch coming, and theres sod all I can do. Programmes on UK Living can have me distraught. OH NO, TEH MOTHER IS ILL AND SHE IS TEH FINDING NEW MOTHER FOR HER BABEIS!!! And yet I still cry like theres no tomorow.

 

[Summo]

"...every day we kept a child out of the world was a day he might later regret having missed."

I want to go home and watch this again. :/

 

[whipped]

For reasons unknown to myself I haven't cried since my Gran died around 15 years ago. I have yet to find a film that will break my weirdness. Saving Private Ryan came close, oh and the DS9 episode where Jake gets older and older as Sisko moves through time nearly did it.

My girlfriend did cry at Ice Age though. Which I thought was rather pathetic.

 

[LTF]

Never cried, nearly did at the end of Gladiator tho

 

[Testin da Cable]

well, as I said in the buffy thread...."Starman'.

oh, and a couple of weeks ago two very good friends got married and I shed bucketloads for soem reason. damn you vodka...damn you to heck!!

 

[Insane]

I cried at The Sound of Music

"PLEASE LORD, PLEASE MAKE IT STOP!!!!"



sorry i'll get my coat and leave...

 

[Lester]

Has anyone seen Field Of Dreams? Gah. I watched it and cried buckets and recently I walked into the room when someone was watching it and nearly spontaneously cried..wtf? It wasn't even anywhere near the bit where his dad comes out of the corn.

Can't cry in real life tho, even when my dad died (doesn't need a psychologist to solve that problem eh?)

Oh yeah.....The little girl in the red coat in Schindlers List

 

[~Lazarus~]

A Time to Kill
greetin' like a wean

theres been others - I think

 

[prime1]

Schindlers List, Gladiator, Saving Private Ryan.. and Transformes The Movie, when Optimus Prime dies - i use the excuse that its like apiece of my childhood dying - altho its good when he comes back as ... Roddimus Prime!

err.. yea. anyway....

 

[granny]

Oh I cry very easily at films, ones that spring to mind that I've watched recently are The Truman Show, The Big Lebowski (yeah, Coen brothers are teh mutts nuts) erm, plenty of others I even shed a tear or two at certain bits of the Lord Of The Rings.

 

[FatBusinessman]

Only one I can think of off the top of my head is Green Mile.

Cos I'm well 'ard, innit

 

[ZaPpeh]

The closest I've got is that evil lump in the throat when I watched THE CHAMP.

Crying is for girls

 

[Wazzerphuk]

Battle Royale reduced me to a bit of a mess when I first saw it.

How on fucking earth did you cry at the Big Lewbowski, unless crying from the fucking hilarity of that film, it's fucking awesome........ at the end where The dude gets showered with the ashes... the look on jeff bridges face is just quality.....

I've not cryed at a film in some time, maybe I would of cryed at the green mile but I only saw upto where the mouse gets squashed... then my sky reception cut out grrr

seriously though.... du guys treat the cinema like some kind of carthartic support group? lol

YES I REMEMBER.... short circuit 2 was the last film I cryed at when I was 9.....

 

[prime1]

erm.. what version of green mile have you been watching, the mouse dosnt die.... at the end of the film it is liek 60 years old.. thats like.. a major plot point....?!?

 

[danger]

did u not read...... I haven't seen all of the film my reception cut out after the mouse got todden on.

Fuck it I'm gonna stop reading this thread before I find out the end of the film!

 

[Testin da Cable]

my, you do say words with 'fuck' in them a lot danger. impressive.

 

[danger]

words with "fuck" in them? How's that work TDC? a word within a word....


anyway. fuck is the most versatile word in the english language!


/ED: re-reads.... maybe 3 fucks in a sentance is a bit excessive

 

[Testin da Cable]

hmm being up this early does wonders for my use of english it seems aye, a bit excessive indeed

 

[danger]

In which case I humbly apologise...

I know the feeling, strong black coffee will make it all better though...

been up since 6..... finished my A lev psych coursewerk, been into college and been back 2 hours...... I feel dead! If man was meant to get up before mid day, god would not have made it so painful!

:touch:

Fuck isnt just specific to the English language.

It is a multilingual word.

i concur

 

[Sir Frizz]

Jenna Loves Rocko made me cry, the love in that film was...too much.


Seriously though, Forrest Gump was a film which made me whimper, but it also made me laugh, so that's that balanced out.

cool that doesn't alter the versitility of it... and it's extremely useful for persons with a small vocabulary....

Pretty much all of the hollywood pap gets me, although I believe my skin is thickening after every film.

Braveheart, Gladiator and Saving Private Ryan are some I can remember. Also had some trouble holding back when watching LOTR in the cinema - in a manly way, of course.

Haven't had a computer game that has made me cry yet. I was pretty close to it when I spilt orange juice on my Civ1 disks (which were also my saved game disks). Maybe one day

 

[old.Kez]

The only one that springs to mind (irritatingly enough) is the 1995 remake of A Little Princess.

 

[PR.]

The first time I cried to a movie was the Never Ending Story Part 1 - when the horse was sinking in the mud. The whole (lower school) class were blubbering into the teachers tissues

I didn't cry in Saving Private Ryan (too much action) or Green Mile (read the book before hand).

The only time I have ever cried is:

End of Titanic (my naiveity and shielding myself from the plot didn't realise he was gonna die)

The ep were Buffy's mum dies

A few other Star Trek eps

 

[granny]

Danger - yes it was crying with hilarity at Big Lebowski
