Movies that make you CRY.


Recommended Posts

My wife was pregnant with our first child when we saw Crash (Haggis, not Cronenberg). The scene with the little girl running out to protect her father from being shot absolutely devastated me.

Since having kids I've definitely become more affected by movies/TV. I got chocked up watching a commercial with young girls talking about self image the other day for Christ sake!

 

This is why my wife and I don't watch the walking dead anymore. A little girl becoming a zombie and having to kill her was what did us in. 

 

Also, google commercials make me cry....

I watched "Life Itself" last night the Rodger Ebert Doc. Started crying in the first like five min. He gives this amazing speech about how movies are things that generate empathy. I was a wreck the whole movie.

 

Glad six feet under was mentioned, hands down best TV Show and best finale, I can think of few times i've been more effected.

 

The latest episode of The Leftovers fucked me up good too.

Some ones that immediately come to mind...

 

Control

How to Train Your Dragon (#2 especially, I was such a mess in that theater...)

Dead Poets Society

What's Eating Gilbert Grape

The Silence of the Lambs ("that" scene between Clarice and Hannibal, not that it's sad but because it's just so incredible)

Life Aquatic

The Fox and the Hound

Les Mis

I haven't properly cried since I was a kid (which is weird) but I always get teary-eyed when I watch these movies:

Schindler's List

First Pokémon Movie

The Pianist

Pan's Labyrinth

The Perks of Being a Wallflower

The Fault in Our Stars

As far as series go, definitely The Walking Dead (when beloved characters suddenly get killed off) and HIMYM. Also, that Glee episode that paid tribute to Cory Monteith destroyed me.
