What movies always make you cry? (need real tearjerkers, especially for men)

[zinfamous]

Don't cry for movies but that ASPCA commercial with Sarah McLaughlin makes me want too

I change the channel when those come on. There's something, I don't know....a bit despicable about that tactic, imo.

It's like that goddamn De Sica who throws a little kid + puppy/doggie in every flick to just rip you to pieces.

Now that you mention it, add to the list:

The Bicycle Thieves
Umberto D
Germany, Year Zero (I defy anyone to stay straight with this one)
La Strada

uh fuck: Amelie. Hell, I tear-up about 10 times during that one.

Ghost and Up. There are some other ones, but nothing 'that' sad. A.I. was more depressing as hell, slit my wrists now than sad.

 

[GTaudiophile]

War movies often get me choked up. Here are some example:

Armistead's Speech in "Gettysburg" (6:37)
The Opening Scene of "Saving Private Ryan" (3:18)
The Ending Scene of "Black Hawk Down" (2:06)
The "Richard Winters" Ending Scene of the final "Band of Brothers" Episode (10:30)

6:50-8:50 in this clip from "The Passion of the Christ"

The pursuit of happyness

The first 10 min of UP was the saddest Ive felt during a movie in a decade. No tears though.

 

[Ika]

Grave of the Fireflies has come really close to making me bawl, but mostly because it's so sad

 

[Joemonkey]

i'm a true geek, in LOTRO when the nazgul says no man can kill me and Eowyn says "I am no man" and at the very end when Aragorn becomes king and says to Frodo "You bow to no one" and the entire kingdom bows to the hobbits always get me

 

[Fenixgoon]

this. arguably the best moment out of all 3 movies

There's a Japanese movie I've watched a few times that gets the tears going..

The closest I ever came to shedding tears during a movie was at the end of Marley & Me. I have no idea why... movies almost NEVER affect me on an emotional level.

I saw this in the movies with two kids, and tears were streaming down my face. It took me back to when I had to put my cat down. :'(

 

[Whoozyerdaddy]

Lilo and Stitch for some reason...

 

[UnklSnappy]

Hachiko Monogatari

or
the hollywood remake Hachiko a Dogs Tale
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FaS37E3gKOU

both based on the true story of Hachiko
if these don't make you tear up you have no soul.

 

[Possessed Freak]

Whenever I saw a Star Wars movie in the theater, I teared up right when the opening Crawl started.

[edit]I also tear up when Spock dies in Star Trek II.

 

[yinan]

Marshall
The Natural

 

[SlitheryDee]

I was fighting back tears at the end of the new King Kong movie.

For some reason the scene in "The Quick and the Dead" where the little girl accidentally shot her father while trying to shoot the rope around his neck choked me up a bit.

That, and when they all get on the boat gets me.

Life is Beautiful - generally depressing overall, but ending is pretty sad

The last of the Mohicans and Pan's Labyrinth also has some sad endings if I remember correctly.

Message in a Bottle

 

[DrawninwarD]

Universal Soldier: Regeneration made me cry because it was so terrible!

I used to be pretty uptight, but I actually cry at a lot of movies now. It feels good to be able to get in touch with my emotions in a way that I didn't used to be able to do. If someone thinks that makes me less of a man, they're not the kind of person whose opinion I would value highly anyway.

One of the saddest movies I've ever seen is Windaria. I love that movie, but I just can't watch it very often. The ending...sigh...I want to cry right now, just thinking about it, and I haven't watched it in about five years.
