Special K 0 Report post Posted June 25, 2006 As of now I think Grave of thew Fireflies and the Elephant Man are the only movies to make me actually cry. I guess it's all or nothing, I was holding back tears for the majority of both movies. Both are terrific movies, I don't relish watching them again. yours? P.S. I think I remember crying when Peter Weller in RoboCop got fucked up. I was 10, then though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cabbageboy 0 Report post Posted June 25, 2006 For some reason WWI movies really make me break down. All Quiet on the Western Front left me a quivering pile of jelly, ditto Hell's Angels. Ironically another Lewis Milestone movie--Of Mice and Men--gave me the same reaction. Milestone directed both All Quiet and Of Mice and Men. As far as The Wild Bunch goes, I never cared about any of those guys enough to weep over them dying. It's another Peckinpah movie that makes me cry like a bitch, namely Ride the High Country. But the absolute top prize for a movie that made me cry like a bitch (and I'm surprised no one else has mentioned it) is.... Armageddon. Seriously, I'm glad I watched that alone the first time I saw it cause it was embarrassing how much I was crying like a bitch during the last half hour.

Vyce 0 Report post Posted June 25, 2006 Haven't cried in ages, but ones that had me choked up or getting a little misty-eyed include: - Ikiru If not for Seven Samurai, this would probably be Kurosawa's best film. One of the saddest but most beautiful endings of any film ever made, IMO. It's bittersweet yet edifying at the same time, because while Watanabe basically wasted his adult life in a meaningless occupation, he finally finds a way to give his life lasting meaning and purpose, and he actually accomplishes that goal before his time is up. God, I love this film. It's so incredibly beautiful and haunting. How can you NOT get misty-eyed at this. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RHR 0 Report post Posted June 25, 2006 The movie that has always gotten me is a movie called In Country. It's got Bruce Willis and Emily Lloyd in it. Really emotional at the end...look it up if you want...it's a great, forgotten flick. Also, Boondock Saints, Big Fish, Philadelphia, and the one with Dennis Quaid and Jesus, Frequency.

Sideburnious 0 Report post Posted June 25, 2006 I remember Forest Gump made me cry at the end. The Fox and the hound. That movie about the dog, Fluke. I think Leon had me a bit choked up when I first saw it but I can't remember. I probably would have cried during Big Fish but I went to a Saturday Matinee filled with a bunch of teenage scumbags that were just talking during the final "to the river" scene and laughing at stupid shit, and shouting like a "big fish" when they saw a fish. I ended up feeling more pissed off then upset by the end. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The thing that makes this movie unique, and I'm gonna reveal some SPOILERS here, is that we know right away Watanabe is going to die. That's not necessarily the tear-jerker. He passes halfway through the film. The touching portion is the sequence when the police officer tells the family and friends how he saw Watanabe on the swing singing. It's chilling, but filled with emotion when all things are considered. I didn't expect to get choked up, but that's what happened. I'd probably place it over Seven Samurai on a personal level. Samurai's excellent, but Ikiru has the more human touch and had a lot more impact on me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vyce 0 Report post Posted June 25, 2006 Wow, I rarely agree with Vyce, Gee, thanks. I'd probably place it over Seven Samurai on a personal level. Samurai's excellent, but Ikiru has the more human touch and had a lot more impact on me. Personally, I'd rate Ikiru higher as well. It's my favorite one of his films, and I've seen pretty much all of his films. In the grand scheme of cinema, Seven Samurai is the better, more culturally significant / important film, but Ikiru is my personal favorite. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
