Admittedly, I being of the male species, find myself often crying during sad movies. Those that I recall:
1) Lion King - when Simba realized his true calling
2) Homeward Bound - when the dog narrated by Michael J. Fox came hobbling over the horizon
3) Titanic - Yes "Titanic"
4) Courageous - When the father was dancing with the memory of his deceased daughter

What are some of your movies (and scenes) that you found yourself crying?

Hmmm... the only one I recall was It's a Wonderful Life and the reason I cried is complicated. Maybe the opening scene of Saving Private Ryan and The Green Mile. In the Time of the Butterflies too. I don't often cry.

The movie Up. The beginning is just so sad

...and I don't usually cry when I watch movies but I cried to this one lol

[LucyD]

Yes, I cry at sad movies. Love Story, Ghost, Titanic are just a few of them.

[lizardlady]

Cried over Old Yeller and The Yearling, but I was a kid. Heck, I'd probably cry at the end of both now. Any movie where an animal dies is guaranteed to have me crying like a baby

I recently watched Odd Thomas. I cried at the end when Oddie realizes that Stormy is dead and he has to let her go.

.

1) The Elephant Man

2) The Glenn Miller Story

Because both were true. I don't tend to cry at fiction.

I haven't ever cried watching a movie. Admittedly, I have a bit of a problem with feeling empathy.

I can cry during insurance commercials, lol.

I have several movies.... it is cathartic for me I seek them out.

But a really good (true too) sad animal movie is Hachi: A Dog's Tale

Brokeback Mountain

Beginners- a sweet honest melancholy movie

Miss Potter I was crazy angry that... more spoiler than trigger

Possible trigger:

Ewan McGregor's character died.

Seven Pounds

Last movie that made me cry was "The Man in the Iron Mask"...can't recall what scene just that my husband was indignant because "Titanic" didn't make me cry and I hated it BUT "The Man in the Iron Mask" got me.

Yeah I cry during sad movies...Um I haven't cried about a movie lately, but Avatar made me cry.

[kindachaotic]

Anything with animals. Whether touching or tragic, the tears flow.

I can't think of any titles off the top of my head, but I have a weak spot for kids torn apart from their parents type of thing. It's just so hard to watch.

[StarStrike]

I cry when watching sad movies. I've cried when watching The Fault In Our Stars. I've also cried watching Lilo and Stitch 2 (the one where stitch has a glitch).

[berthegel]

The first grown_up film that made me cry was a French film set during world war two called "forbidden games " ( can remember the French title) I was about 19 at the time

Its about a little girl whose parents get killed while they are fleeing a city.

She gets lost in the countryside, but a slightly older boy finds her and takes her to his home.
They become close friends , the little girl finds a dead bird one day , and makes a little cemeratary for it . She starts doing this every time she finds a dead animal as if she is mourning and greiveing for her parents .And if I remember correctly the boy starts killing animals for her , and they get into trouble , so much so that the boys parents call the authorities and the girl is taken away, and the final seen is the boy crying, and the girl on a train station crying out "michelle Michelle."

I cried during The Notebook, but that was because I was still in the grieving state of a break up :P

Yes sometimes a tear or a few fall out of my eyes...and I hope no one sees, it and try to be discreet wiping them off. Though at the moment I cannot quite think of a lot at least not names there was a sad one with a dog that died cannot remember what it was called but it was older and it was I think meant to be mostly a comedy but it certainly had elements of drama...about a police officer who sort of got stuck with this dog who he became attached to that helped him solve some murder but was killed(of course the actual dog was fine but the dog character in the movie died) but there where puppies the dog had at the end of the movie which made me a little less sad...its not always sad stuff though sometimes it can even be positive scenes that remind me of something.

There was also Flashback, I was quite sad when I thought the older hippie guy died...but of course he didn't actually die it was just another escape trick.

And Schindler's List....kind of hard to watch that all the way through without quite a few tears and lots of anger at the copious amounts of injustice. What really got to me with that one is the end where Schindler says something about wishing he could have saved more people and that was his only regret about what he did....but did not regret deceiving the nazis and all that to save those he could.

OMG and this other one it was actually I think a kids movie I ended up watching...a few years ago. But basically there was this little boy who was kind of an outcast with a sort of hard home life who met a little girl who he became good friends with...and they went out and played in the forest and imagined their own kind of fantasy world after school just about every day...then the girl drowned in the river when going to their meeting spot and the poor little boy was so sad I could not stop crying. I was so mad at that movie...lol

Cinema Paradiso. The ending is in a class of its own.

[Nammu]

I'm in a bit of a teary mode right now. It's not a movie but I was just watching Call of the Midwife, and I cried.

The first movie I can recall crying was Bambi, when his dad died.

Mostly is movies dealing with animals but lots of foreign movies too, they are so moving. Can't recall the name of a recent one, but it was about a slice of life, a sad man who lived alone, had no friends anymore all his family gone. In the end he died in his apt. Maybe not the happiest of movies but real.

[TheDeepGreenSea]

yeah, romcoms get me too sometimes

Omg...Dumbo. It gets me every time.

Turner and Hooch?

[Symbolic]

Don't remember ever crying watching a movie. Maybe some Disney movie when I was a kid, but that's about it.

[Raindropvampire]

Sunday watched "The Boy in the Striped Pajamas". Made me, my mom, my brother and hubby cry. Yup we're saps

[Travelinglady]

I rarely cry. The movie "The Yearling" made me cry, though.
