Movies That Made You Cry

I admit I'm a bit of an old soft-arse at heart - and it's increasing with age unfortch. It's all very embarrassing really. But anyway.

I watched Spielberg's AI: Artificial Intelligence again tonight and blubbed like a girlie. What an incredibly moving (and ultimately quite depressing) story it is.
Other flicks that give my tear ducts a workout are The Elephant Man, Scrooge (The Albert Finney version), The Green Mile, It's A Wonderful Life, Kramer vs Kramer, Love Actually, Billy Elliot.

What're yours?

Paedo.

See, now you made me cry all over my girlfriend's knickers. Still, nappies are quite absorbent...

But joshing aside, dump your alph-male sensibilities and spill the beans. What movies get to you emotionally? If you feel the need to hug a football or put a monster truck video on whilst you answer, that's fine.

You're right. I reveal too much.

Okay, that's it. No more. From now on, these still waters shall run deep. I intend to become the darkest of horses.

Did I tell anyone about the time I had a wank on a bus when I was 16?

Yeeah, sorry about shooting it up your nostrils.

Don't worry about it, they were the only holes free at the time.

To answer you question. I remember watching Gorillas In The Mist and found a lump in my throat (no, not a cock).

Now get me a beer and a hammer, I need to hit stuff.

Awwww, you old softie you. I remember crying at Gorillas in the mist too. That's the last time I spy on your missus in the shower.

Sequels are always rubbish.

Right, f**k off I'm going to bed. Nice sparring with you, namesake.

I've noticed that men and women cry over different movies. There showing an advert for some chick flick called 'My Sister Has Cancer' or some shit like that and I can imagine women getting choked up by the adverts alone. They'll probably be standing in line outside the cinema punching each other in the breasts to get the tears going in anticipation.

Anyways, here's a few films I need tissues for (but not in that way!) -

Silent Running
Green Mile
Finding Neverland
Elephant Man
The Iron Giant (blubbed like a big baby)

Have you seen the out-take where Johnny Depp is talking to one of the boys and suddenly ad-libs something filthy? Hilarious.

Tears of laughter are good. It wasn't until I saw ET at the cinema that I realized that people cry over movies.

Two that made me cry, and the only one's that I can think of which have, were Life is Beautiful and Dead Poet's Society.

I am aware that this probably makes me a girl.
