Movies that brought you to tears

[Zoidberg]

Oh yeah Good Will Hunting. I only saw that for the 1st time a few months ago, pretty great movie.

 

[Prometheus]

Saving Private Ryan, in the war cemetery when the old veteran asks his wife to tell him that he is a good man.

Pay It Forward, at the end when it shows the people queuing outside the house to pay tribute.

The Incredible Burt Wonderstone, at the end when they are just throwing the unconscious audience members around like they aren't human beings. I've never laughed so hard at a movie and tears were streaming.

 

[AusKnightRKO]

The Green Mile.

Not a film, but that episode of Futurama Jurassic Bark is as depressing as hell. I watched it last night and it still chokes me up.

Why did you have to bring up jurassic bark!!
Scrubs had a few episodes that pulled on the heart strings. I think tv comedies can sometimes pull of the emotional moments better then tv dramas for some reason

Where Fry's dog waits for him? Yeah, that's probably the only time a cartoon has ever really moved me.

I cried when Djimi Honsou buried Russell Crowe's little wooden family members at the end of Gladiator when I was about 13 so clearly I have problems.

 

[The Mad Hatter]

The Luck of the Fryish, another Futurama episode, does it for me.

Mash (why won't the forum let me post that in caps?)

I know the episode. The last 2 minutes

But he forgot me a long, long time ago..

 

[Game_Breaker]

The ending of Gangs of NY hits me, right before the credits.

 

[OVP]

Watership Down

A truly f**ked up movie for a little kid, like i was, to see.

One of the most traumatic animated movies of all time.

If you hate your kids, you'll be making them watch this, no doubt.

I was only 9 ffs !!

Jesus yes. That and another one called When The Wind Blows. Distraught.

Also some sci fi movie I saw when I was about 8 in 1983 or 1984. No idea what it was but there's a black actor who stays and/or sacrifices himself, getting a robot baddie crushing him or whacking him with a rock-Boulder type thing. Have no idea what it was but it was gutting at the time.

 

[McLovin]

That scene where Forrest Gump's mother dies was probably the closest to tears

 

[McLovin]

Also, the ending to Public Enemy's where the agent tells Dillinger's missus his last words.

 

[Exsilium]

I haven't seen it in a while but I vividly remember being left teary eyed.

It's a movie that doesn't cut corners when it comes to buying into the plot and motives of the characters.

Not really a kids movie but neither was the book.

Another one for me was the moment in 12 years a slave where he reunites with his family. I couldn't imagine what it would have been like to live in those times and to go through something like that.

Marley and me...obviously anyone who's had a family pet die would relate to that.

The Ep of Futurama from the latest season where Fry enters his memory to go back to the last day before he was frozen, then never wants to leave his house. The end of the episode where Nibbler rewards him by allowing him to enter his mother's dream and have one last goodbye with her kills me. Having lost my mum when still quite young it really hit home.


One that unexpectedly choked me up was Planes, Trains, and Automobiles. At the end when Steve Martin realises that John Candy doesn't actually have anyone to go home to and Candy reveals his wife died, heartbreaking stuff.

For some reason comedies that know how to throw a well timed emotional curveball have a much higher success rate at making me tear up than dramas.

Oh, and one last one. "Bart gets an F". When Bart starts crying at the end and declaring that he really did try this time and is just stupid....
