I sometimes take time to reflect on scenes that make me real emotional. Sometimes movies have a way of going beyond words, beyond defenses we build, and get to that vulnerable side inside of us. They're amazing (and sometimes scary) for that reason. So something in the movie connected with you at a deeper level, something tragic. Maybe you saw deeper into it than did the crowd.
