Default Movies that have made you cry

Well let it out guys, we know you have cried over a movie so post what movie it was.

For me there are two movies that come to mind. The first one would be The Professionals. I mean come on. The girls entire family gets killed and when Leon dies man that is a tough one. The second movie that did me in was Braveheart. That one was bad.

If you havent seen the professionals here is a link, maybe you saw it and didnt know.

Im sorry to say, but I dont go to the movies much (and I'll be truthful, I dont download either), Hollywood doesnt intice me much anymore, most movies seem like a repeat of the last. Of course then comes a really good movie. Truthfully, Porno is probably better than most of the crap thats on screen these days. However, there were some good movies, Like Shindliers List, Saving private ryan, and a beautiful mind

However, MI3 might be worth seeing.

Without a doubt, Armegeddon.



Just kidding.

Nah, some of the most touching movies I've watched....

The Last Samurai (yeah, a Tom Cruise movie, but so what)
The Green Mile
Old Yellar (30 years later and I still cry)
Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon
The Last of the Mohicans
The Lord of the Rings - The Return of the King
Schindler's List (bawled like a baby on this one)

There may be a couple of others, but these really get to me.

Terminator 2 - "I cannot self terminate, you must lower me into the steel" and the bits following that
The Last of the Mohicans - Take your pick, lots of moments in there.
The Green Mile - We all know how that one goes.
Highlander - When Heather bites the dust
Forest Gump - That whole reading letters to your wife thing.

Think that about does it..

...ohh and how about The Deer Hunter, when his mate shoots himself and he tries to catch him. Thats pretty sad / freaky.

edit:

It's probably worth saying that while they weren't boohoo moments, they definitley pull on the heart chords!

I shed a tear at the end of Tai Guk Gi where the older brother takes on the NK army and dies to buy time for his little brother's escape.

Girl Interrupted because I havebeen there and seen and done most of what is shown in the film, it hurts a lot when your life is shown to you.

American History X because he managed to turn his life around but still got punnished in the end.

Donnie Darko because he knew what was coming and chose to embrace it.

My Summer of Love because I've been ****ed over in exactly the same way.

I know at least eight of you guys have this movie in mind when you first read this thread, but I shed a few tears watching Titanic. I'll be the first one to admit that. I was 13 when I first saw it, and the movie kinda grew on me. Dang Leonardo Dicaprio froze to death; that scene got me the most.

Dangit! Guess I gotta add another to the list after just finishing watching it a bit ago.
The end of Wind Talkers got me a bit teary.

Still haven't watched it and I've got no desire to. The only role Dicaprio ever played that was worth anything was in "What's Eating Gilbert Grape?".

I've only wept at one movie, Ya Ya Sister Hood. I got a really hard punch to my *censored* when I fell asleep, and it hurt like you wouldn't believe! Luckily no one was really in that threater to get upset when I whimpered on the sticky and popcorn covered floor.

I couldn't agree more. Leonardo in the movie, with music by Celine Dion.... what worse torture is there?

I did hear he was good in Gangs of New York, although I have not seen it myself. Either way he can't touch the acting ability of Jeramy Irons.
