Movie: Passion Of The Christ made me cry & I'm not ashamed to admit it. Seeing Christ suffer like that out of his love for us really makes me

TV Show: Six Feet Under! God, when Nate laid Lisa to rest & then starts screaming I can't help but cry, his pain is so real. When Nate himself dies I didn't just shed one manly teer, I cried like I had lost my own family member

Shows - One Piece - when Sanji left the restaurant - however it is quite an emotional program so i have cried more than that - possibly

Films - Goodbye Lenin! - at the end, its like aw - look what he did for her!

ET's death scene, and Maa the ewe dying in the movie Babe.

Hey vegyrex

Hmmm. I'm pretty emotional, so pretty much anything. But that scene in Babe was so emotionally contrived, I was a total emotional mess after seeing it.

haha the other day i had a little cry watching the episode of scrubs where laverne (is that her name?) dies.
god it was sooo sad.

I know. I'm glad I wasn't wearing eyeliner at the time. It would have been a Tammy Faye moment.

Sophie's Choice, I cried so hard even before I was a mom, it's an incredible movie, but I avoid it like the plague now.

The last episode of Six Feet Under, when they show how everyone eventually dies, I've seen it so many times and I still can't get through it without crying (especially Keith's death).

Hell yeah I agree about the end episode of Six Feet Under. However, I also find it really inspiring and rewatch it when I need a kick up the ass when I'm procrastinating about decisions in my life. When Claire doesn't get the job but goes to New York anyway; that get's me everytime. And then you see everyone's death and what they made of their lives it just makes you think about the bigger picture, which is something I really need sometimes.

Oh and I bawled like a baby after watching The Notebook, but it's a big weepie.

Jumping on the bandwagon with the last episode of Six Feet Under. It was just so perfectly done, and such a perfect ending. The way we see how everybody has lived their lives as Claire drives away to Sia playing in the car... It's just totally amazing and absolute televisual perfection. Best episode of any show ever, I think. But I didn't find myself crying for Nate. I thought he was a total dick. I was crying for Brenda when she found out about him and THAT FUCKING PIECE OF SHIT Maggie. I mean actual baby tears, like I'd missed a feed or something. My friend and I have also shed a few tears at various other SFU episodes, but the last one is just so flawlessly executed that it does it for me every time.
I don't think there have been any other incidents where I've cried at a TV show, apart from going a bit glassy-eyed when Darlene had her baby on Roseanne. And when Megan O'Hara killed herself on Nip/Tuck with Rocketman in the background.

As for movies...
Harold and Maude gets me all emotional. It's such a beautiful and inspiring movie. I begin crying from the time the song 'Trouble' comes on, until the very end when Harold walks off into the horizon playing the banjo. So so good.
Forrest Gump, in spite of all it's Hollywood cheesiness, used to get me in tears every time. But I think the time has come that I've been desensitized to it. Which is a shame. But the bit that always used to get me was the penultimate two scenes - the one where she says 'I wish I could've been there with you' and he says 'You were' completely started off the waterworks. And by the time he says to her grave 'If there's anything you need, I won't be far away', I would have been a complete quivering wreck.
Stand By Me made me cry the first time I watched it, but hasn't been able to since.
Leon gets me quite a bit. When he tells her that he's been given a taste for life and that he wants a home and all that jazz and then gets shot several minutes later. And when Natalie Portman plants his thing in the garden. SO GOOD.
One Flew Over the Cuckoo's nest can get me going if I'm in a particularly sad mood.


I was called a heartless bitch when I didn't cry at Million Dollar Baby, though.

i cry every time i watch "what dreams may come" with robin williams where he dies and then his wife commits suicide and he goes to hell and he rescues her TRUE LOVE

I am so glad you're back!

I cannot handle sexual abuse in films, and though I own it, I Spit on Your Grave's 40 minutes of extreme brutality made me sob when I first watched it. Now I just prefer to skip ahead to when she kills them all Boys Don't Cry and Casualties of Innocence had the same effect for me (and I can never watch either of those ever again).

China Girl, Privilege, and Tokyo Pop are completely heartbreaking.

Television shows? I'll totally out my geek self and admit that when Starbuck was killed on Battlestar Galactica (the new series, though original Starbuck's demise was hard to take as well) made me cry. What hurt most was that she completely redeemed herself and came to terms with her abusive past, is able to be by her dying mother's side and made peace with herself. And then she dies. Dammit.

i'm a total sap. i don't know what happened but as i got into my late teens, i got more accessible emotionally. i even cried at that hospital scene in "click" and also i cry consistently when i watch the cemetery scene in "steel magnolias". "amelie" made me cry too the first time i watched that scene when she's imagining her death on tv, before that guy knocks on her door.

... WHAT?

Almost everything makes me cry...but I suck it up before I do usually because even when I'm alone I feel like a loser crying at the stupidest stuff.

Things that made me Bawl though:

Eternal Sunshine of The Spotless Mind is my favorite movie and makes me cry every single time I watch it.

Kill Bill 2 makes me cry, when she sees her daughter, my god, I bawled.

Oh and I was extremely depressed at the time and my relationship was on the rocks, but I was watching The Punisher and the whole scene where his family dies and everything....I cried for the entire span of it hah...I was like yelling at the screen too..it was a disaster.

More than one Episode of Degrassi has made me cry..hah

And I cried when Laverne died too, Scrubs is my favorite show.



Oh and I didn't cry when I saw the Notebook, go figure, hah.

i agree degrassi CAN be really emotional, its so sad when characters die.
the scrubs thing though, it really did ruin me.

can i just ask everyone what there was to cry at in the notebook??

I guess that it was beautiful the slut stayed with the guy she had a randevue with over a summer when she was a teenager, and they were married for their entire lifespan and that the story was being told to the main character but she had alztimers and doesn't remember it was about her, but then she remembers and they die in each others arms of old age...everything was beyond predictable...it was sweet though.

Will you be my movie/tv buddy?
I remember after the last episode of SFU, HBO.com had obituaries written for each of the characters, they might still be up, definitly worth a look. Nate was a narcsicist , Maggie was a hypocrite (and annoyingly peaceful and nice, I know girls like that, even if she fucks your husband everyone loves her, and you're the hateful bitch), and Brenda is my girl. I started crying as soon as they showed Brenda's daughter's 1st birthday.

I can't even watch the episode of Roseanne with the baby, I watched it when I was pregnant (and about as far along as Darlene was), and it really stressed me out, now it just kills me. So does the very last episode, where the truth comes out that they didn't win the lottery, it was all a story she created in order to deal with the fact that Dan had died from his heart attack.

Harold and Maude is my favorite movie, especially that last scene, it is so beautiful.

As far as I'm concerned if you don't get even a little emotional during Forest Gump, then you are a robot.

I didn't cry at Million Dollar Baby either, I was kind of cheering (I'd want the same kindness in the end), but I did run screaming out of the room with the heebie geebies when he takes her broken nose and moves the bone to the side.

Me too! I came home after seeing it and when I remembered the scene with Elliot and E.T. being parted from each other and E.T. is dying, I started crying all over again which totally amazed me because until then I'd only ever cried from being hurt or scared... I remember seeing myself in the mirror, crying, and thinking, "I'm really crying just thinking about E.T.!" Like, "These are real tears!" I was 8, almost 9.

The last movie I cried at was Blood Diamond, which I did not expect at all. It was at Leonardo DiCaprio's character death scene.
