Watching "Field of Dreams" - just watched it again and now I'm a blubbering wreck!!

Which films do this to you.

Watership Down, Steel Magnolias and most recently Marley and Me !!!

Gabrielle

for me it is eight below :) even though the dogs are a different breed to mine, it makes me think of my mika :( even my husband was in tears watching it x

Gorillas in the Mist (when Digit died) and Black Beauty to name but two!

Last scenes in Colour Purple, Braveheart from where Murrin appears, the original Incredible Journey and Schindler's List

The last half hour or so of A.I never fails to turn me into some sort of human waterfall. No matter how many times I watch it, it still has the same effect.

I cried the whole way through 8 Below, and can't bring myself to watch Marley and Me. I watched Seven Pounds the other night, and it was the sheer need for a wee that stopped me crying (didn't want to wee myself!). It's a brill film for those who've not seen it.

City of Angels, when the silly girl goes and gets hit by a truck after he's just got himself human again and Message in a bottle when he goes and dies rescueing somebody  blub blub blub. :(  Big weepy  is Who will love my Children?  Serious 5 hanky weepy :(

>>Big weepy  is Who will love my Children?  Serious 5 hanky weepy  >>

Oh yes!! Haven't seen that for years!!

My big weepy film was when I watched Boy in the striped pyjamas. I was sobbing for hours after that.

The Colour Purple is one that moved me hugely, I'm not usually too soppy, but I did really feel that one.

I wonder if you girls are the same as me, weird as it may seem I love a film that pulls at every emotional chord you have, one that makes you think of your own life and how the film can relate to your situation whatever it may be, at the end of it you're almost an emotional wreck and shedding all of those tears is almost cathartic.
My OH says 'oh no not one of them' when I see a preview and say ' I've got to watch that'  :)

Field of Dreams and The Champ for me but to be honest i can find a blub bit in most films, LOL  I find it weird because in real life i'm not a weepy person, more of a pull myself together and get on with it, LOL

I'm like that, so maybe sad films are a let out for pent up stuff, aint nowt so weird as folk!

> Colour Purple

I love the film, and  enjoyed the book Tashies Story. Also love Dancing With Wolves  Kevin Costner!

Anything where animals die or get lost then found again. The worst is probably Bambi! (when his mummy dies) and Dumbo (when his mummy get locked up and rocks him in her trunk through the bars). I remember being stunned as a child when my mum cried at West Side Story because my mum never cried at films. I still can't watch any of the incredible journey films and as for Watership down - complete no-no here! The last one I remember sobbing at was The boy in the Striped pyjamas, but I also feel a tear coming on in Mamma Mia (just before the wedding) as my girls are growing up and moving on too :-)  Then there is Pay it forward,  ET... I could go on forever, i'm a real soppy mare!!

Probably loads, but off the top of my head, Beaches, The Green Mile, Trains, Planes and Automobiles, although very funny it's the bit towards the end of the film that "gets me" .

my girl, got me weeping

Brokeback Mountain, gets me every time...
The Big Blue
Breakfast at Tiffany's
Bit of a wuss really.. lol

>I'm like that, so maybe sad films are a let out for pent up stuff, aint nowt so weird as folk!<

I agree, i'm a real wuss with films besides the ones i mentioned there's loads where there's been a moment of welling up :-D  I don't watch animal films just in case, LOL  I did make an exception for the Lion King and yes the tears flowed, LOL

The very end of Titanic when Rose as an old lady she dies and she meets up with Jack, it gets me every time, but on a slightly different theme I could never watch Animal Hospital with Rolf Harris, seeing some of the poor animals, and then Rolf getting emotional was a tear jerker, my OH tried to ban me from watching it, but then realised he was better holding the andrex for me!

Oh help I forgot the staircase I broke my heart in spite of a woman behind saying very loudly "What's happening now?" Which kind of spoiled the moment

oh yes and the bit in tittanic where the ship is going down and that poor lady laying on the bed with her children reading them a story while the ship sinks :(

Yes and the bit where you see the dogs running round the deck, just knowing they're not going to survive :-(

> oh yes and the bit in tittanic where the ship is going down and that poor lady laying on the bed with her children reading them a story while the ship sinks :-(

Yep me too, and when they are all floating dead in the water when the lifeboat comes back :-(

There are too many, my kids would come in and catch me watching a weepie, and look resigned, she's at it again. Any film you can empathise with. Mind you I had a boy friends years and years ago that cried at Pete's dragon! I dumped him pretty quick.

You heartless woman ;)

My oh always has a tear at Erin Brockwitz (sp) Every one in our house is of the opinion that we wont be watching Marley - we were all in tears watching Hotel for Dogs recently.

Another couple I thought of, and it's two that are very close to my heart is Whistle Down the Wind, and The Railway Children... my daddy my daddy... oh my :(

>The Railway Children... my daddy my daddy...

I think that's the only one that gets me, too.

>Probably loads, but off the top of my head, Beaches, The Green Mile, Trains, Planes and Automobiles, although very funny it's the bit towards the end of the film that "gets me" <

I'm so glad I'm not the only one to cry at the Green Mile. Most animal films set me off TBH - even cartoons like dumbo/watership down etc. I used to blub at The Littlest Hobo too when I was a kid - I could never understand why the poor dog didn't have a real home and felt so sad for him.

Oh dear, I'm welling up again!!

Claire

Lassie!!!
Incredible journey
Whistle down the wind
Black Beauty when ginger died sob!!
The Little princess
Any poem on Rainbow Bridge!
Pictures of cruelty to animals especially dogs, horses, bears in chains It physically hurts.
Starving kids like Biafra, Sudan ect

I can weep at anything as I have got older i have got softer

We will not mention Bambi - howl
The one with the lion Circle of life song!!!!
Dumbo

The list goes on and on

I have not watched MArley I cant read any doggie books where it dies in the end, even if I think its going to snuff it I cant read it.

Whistler i'm the same i havn't watched Marley either nor read the book even though i bought it, i just can't bring myself to, LOL

> I'm so glad I'm not the only one to cry at the Green Mile.

Oh it's such a brilliant film, makes you laugh, smile and cry.

I thought of another one too Click, with Adam Sandler, it being him you would think it to be funny, I think there are some moments but we all cried, I can not watch it again. :-(

Talking of Adam Sandler, 50 First Dates is a fabulous film, not a weepy but a lovely story. I don't usually like him in films but this one is a goody IMHO :-)

> 50 First Dates is a fabulous film

Oh I like this film a lot too. :-D
Something else I like about this film is the version of "somewhere over the rainbow".

> I don't usually like him in films but this one is a goody IMHO :-)

Me either, and I agree it is a goody!

Israel Kamakawiwo'ole the guy from Hawaii sang it. It's my mum's favourite version too, its also used in 'Meet Joe Black'

For me, as well as a lot already mentioned, films such as The Wizard of Oz (end), Life is Beautiful (really sad), Run Wild Run Free (Mark Lester as a deaf boy), Song of Bernadette, Soylent Green (where Edward G. Robinson 'dies' at end, then died for real shortly afterwards), A Star is Born (Judy Garland version) and (although not a film) the final Grey's Anatomy episode shown recently!!

If you are of a sensitive nature DO NOT watch Marley and Me, lol.

It's a very good film but is obvious what will happen at the end, and as a result I started crying 20 mins before the end and didn't stop until half an hour after it had finished. How ridiculous. Hehe.

> and (although not a film) the final Grey's Anatomy episode shown recently!!

I blubbed like a good 'en at many an ER, especially when a some of my favourite characters died.
I also had a good cry when the series finished earlier this year.

> Israel Kamakawiwo'ole the guy from Hawaii sang it. It's my mum's favourite version too, its also used in 'Meet Joe Black'

Thanks I am going to see if I am able to put it on my phone. I must say I have not seen meet Joe Black, is Brad Pitt in this film?

yes its the one where he plays death (AKA Joe Black)

Beaches - I blubbed in the cinema when it was first released.  I blub even more now that I have a child of my own, the thought of not being there to watch your child grow up gets me each time I watch it.

Never really fancied meet joe black, will watch that then as i do fancy the pants off brad pitt!

Old yellow is a classic weepy dog film, i also remember as a child sobing my heart out at Farlap the horse (true story, makes it even sadder!)

Hambone is a brilliant film for doggie people, lots of tears but a must see, if you havent seen it you must watch it

Any film with animals dying, suffering, or just being sad will send me into floods, i know...what a dope!
