Big Fish made me choke up.
I don't specifically recall crying while reading/watching Marley and Me, but I had old labs at the time so either I did, or I just turned it off because I knew I would. |

Schindlers List and Slingblade definitely did, and Little House on the Prairie was good for a tearjerker every few episodes
Pretty sure I've never cried to a song, not sure why... actually seems kinda weird that I never have edit* actually I have cried to a song, it was the first time I heard "Father of Mine" by Everclear Last edited by Easy 6; 06-27-2024 at 03:08 PM.. |

McGregor, Finny, Helena bonham Carter; hell Billy Crudup does a damn nice job. Tim Burton didn't go TOO Tim Burton. There are some really good/funny/interesting supporting parts that are done well. But it's gonna make dudes cry and we don't like that shit. So we watch it once and then never tell anyone about it and so it just vanishes from the landscape. Because nobody wants to talk about Big Fish with their buddies. We watch it alone on the couch once and pretend it never happened... |

the ending of the Titanic!
nah just kidding but when I saw that in theaters in the 90's I did see my buddy have a tear roll down his eye at that ending. But honestly, I kind of tear up a little bit in those coming of age movies where they finally get their chance or accomplish something. I dunno why but sometimes |

There are a lot of movies and TV shows where certain scenes get to me.
Two that come to mind immediately: The end of Field of Dreams when he's having a catch with his dad. When Radar came into the operating room to announce that Henry Blake's plane had been shot down and there were no survivors. |

We had a good cry together because the events of the film hit a lot of the same notes in our lives especially the scenes involved around trying to have a kid. Still a great movie... probably my favorite Pixar movie ever. Couldn't watch it a second time even before she died. Now? No ****ing way. /I don't mean to look like I'm searching for sympathy by continuing to bring her up like that... its just the topic of the thread and what is in my brain. |

My dad was a big fan of Bobby Darin...Beyond the Sea was a favorite of his. When he passed, we played it at his wake (along with an eclectic bunch of stuff...the old man had quite a range of musical tastes). But that song...the lyrics...combined with the fact that my mom had passed away a few years prior...well, now I can't hear it without choking up:
Somewhere beyond the sea Somewhere waiting for me My lover stands on golden sands And watches the ships that go sailing Somewhere beyond the sea She's there watching for me If I could fly like birds on high Then straight to her arms, I'd go sailing It's far beyond a star It's near beyond the moon I know beyond a doubt My heart will lead me there soon We'll meet beyond the shore We'll kiss just as before Happy we'll be beyond the sea And never again, I'll go sailing I know beyond a doubt My heart will lead me there soon We'll meet, I know we'll meet beyond the shore We'll kiss just as before Happy we'll be beyond the sea And never again, I'll go sailing No more sailing So long, sailing Bye-bye, sailing Goodbye, Captain Not out of sadness per se, more out of happy memories. I remember them dancing old school style to big band swing songs, and this one was a favorite. That song was written for the way it all ended up for them. I miss them both a helluva lot. |
