    I'm not ashamed to say Hotel Rwanda made me (and several others) literally wail out loud in the movie theater.

    It used to be only certain things in movies made me cry. As I get older I find myself getting emotional over silly things. For instance, before I would only cry when a beloved character died, or seeing someone else in agonizing greif. My favorite movie is The Other Sister, and there's 2 parts that make me cry: the part where Daniel cries about his bad grades and the part where he and Carla fight. However, a few days ago I watched Sister Act 2, and the part where Wesley "Ahmal" hits that high note and shocks everyone I teared up :laugh: now I feel like an old lady. Also, the movie We Were Soldiers makes my boyfriend cry - and he's about as manly as you can get!

    Edited to say: I also cry during Hope Floats when that poor baby chases after her daddy and the movie Mystic Pizza when the one sister realizes the man she babysits for is playing her when his wife returns - and she's crying to Julia Roberts about how stupid and unloved she feels :sad:

    I Am Legend..... when his dog died. I nearly left the theater. The movie was over for me at that point.

    Apollo 13 chokes me up every time.

    Also, I took my kid to see " A Bridge to Tarabithia". I knew nothing about it, and I welled up for about 10 minutes when that thing happens.

    I heard my hubby snuffling near the end of Marley and Me. I actually could NOT watch the ending, I had to leave the room. I have yet to watch it. I am so emotional when it comes to sad movies.

    I got choked up and teary-eyed at Marley & Me.... and then promptly jumped my wife's @ss for taking me to a movie where she knew in advance the dog was going to die. Seriously, who wants to go see a movie where the best friend dies?!?!??!?!

    Lots of European films are deeply moving. I remember recently Of Gods and Men was really powerful. One Polish film "Korczack" about a men who tried to save children in the Holocaust. American films?…. Saving Private Ryan, only the end...

    'Simon Birch', and I have no idea why. I was actually on a date and pretended to have a stomach ache so I could sneak off and collect myself.

    I'm not a guy, but I'm going to list mine anyways...The War with Elijah Wood and Kevin Costner makes me cry like no other movie. I can't watch The Land Before Time by myself because of the part where Little Foot runs up to the cliff and licks it because he thinks his shadow is his mom.

    Hachi a Dog's Tate with Richard Gere - OMG! So glad I was not out in public when I saw this. It's not about a dying dog (Marley & Me) - It's different.

    Taking Chance with Kevin Bacon - very moving.

    im a chick and not much makes me cry (unless its with animals) but i couldn't even watch the trailer for that movie without bawling.
