Poll: What movie (or movies) moved you to tears at one point during it/them?

Posted by: accountant_4_Jesus (a.k.a ) on Nov 11, 13:23

Quick list for me: Fireproof, Facing the Giants, The Dark Knight (when Maggie Gyllenhaal's character gets killed, I know, I'm a softie), The Passion of the Christ, The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King (when Frodo says goodbye), Up (the first maybe 10 minutes or so)... Can't remember any more at the moment, but I'm sure there are others.

2nd one was due to laughter, of course.... {nm} PRodQuanta Nov 11, 13:25

I can't really remember any movies that I've flat out bawled at, but I do get teary-eyed. Toy Story 3 would be a recent example. {nm} Ruthian23 Nov 11, 13:29

The ending, that is. {nm} Ruthian23 Nov 11, 13:29

Couldn't tell you why but AI really got to me {nm} srrichardson Nov 11, 13:37

Sure, me too. On the DVD, there's a John Williams extra about he uses music, and how he arrows the use of a melody... second gary Nov 11, 13:42

The Pursuit of Happyness...when he gets the job {nm} tealfan Nov 11, 13:40

That's actually a good spin-off question, whether you usually get teary-eyed from sad things (deaths, etc) or emotional good things. {nm} Ruthian23 Nov 11, 13:42

Maybe that could be my next Friday's poll. Thanks for that question, Ruthian. accountant_4_Jesus Nov 11, 14:07

The end of "City Lights." "Tokyo Story." In "Donnie Darko" when "Mad World" is played in a "survivor montage." {nm} second gary Nov 11, 13:43

A Walk to Remember gets me every time. {nm} photochick814 Nov 11, 14:08

My sister was watching that movie on TV one time. I came in at the very end and began guessing the lines, off the top of my head tawdryhepburn Nov 11, 15:39

I didn't say it was original or a fantastic movie, but it still gets me every time. {nm} photochick814 Nov 11, 20:33
