Posted: 10/27/05 at 1:53amI saw this movie short on AOL called the youth in us... I cried pretty hard considering the movie was only 12-15 minutes long

How could I forget Million Dollar Baby? Sad movie!
Also, Sweet November and The Patriot are really sad as well.

Posted: 11/1/05 at 1:58pmThe following may not be considered "tearjearkers" but I bawled my eyes out in THELMA & LOUISE (the cliff scene), A LEAGUE OF THEIR OWN (dead husband announcement), and THE AUTOBIOGRAPHY OF MISS JANE PITTMAN (the water fountain scene).
Vita, dulcedo, et spes nostra
Salve, Salve Regina
Ad te clamamus exsules filii Eva
Ad te suspiramus, gementes et flentes
O clemens O pia

Many great choices have been already mentioned. But I am very surprised, am I the ONLY one to break down at the end of "Philadelphia" ??? Also the ending of "The Way we Were" gets me every time.
Also, "Schindler's List" and "Cinema Paradiso" (though not a sad film per se)

Ok...was I the only one then who cried at "Crash"?
I don't cry at movies...
I bawled during this one...at the end of EVERY story...there was sobbing, and heaving...it was a mess...so many tissues.

sophie's choice
schindler's list (it was hard to believe that all of those people were actors!)
i can NOT watch the fox and the hound
thirteen (not really sad...more disturbing. but holly hunter friggin rocks in that movie)
finding neverland...i cry every time. i love that movie.
the last time i watched "little women" with winona ryder and claire danes, i bawled my eyes out when beth died. it was quite ridiculous actually.

Posted: 4/22/08 at 1:09pmMost recently- Eight Below. I just felt so bad for those dogs out in the freezing cold all by themselves for so long.

A walk to remember
The color purple
#95re: Saddest movie you've ever seen
Posted: 4/22/08 at 1:58pmI can't remember anything really recently that made me cry, but I cried in the bathroom at the movie theater after I saw the movie Andre. LOL! I couldn't have been older then 10 at the time. Ice Castles is another one too, but I haven't seen it is so long.

CAREFUL HE MIGHT HEAR YOU.
A heartbreaking Australian film with an exgquisite performance by an actress named (I think) Wendy Hewes. Wendy something. I remember seeing it at the Plaza in NY, and having to sit in the front row. Much of the house behind me sniffled.

Posted: 4/22/08 at 2:43pmI was a basket case after The Notebook. Also, not a film, but the last episode of Torchwood was a five tissue episode.

Posted: 4/22/08 at 3:45pmMULHOLLAND DR., in a way, it was the film where David Lynch started to climb up his own ass, a process continued in that irritating bag of crap INLAND EMPIRE.

Definitely has to be Dancer in the Dark. I actually had to recover after watching it. I cried for 15 minutes straight, like hyperventilating crying. It was just waaaay too much for me.
And inexplicably, every god-damned time I watch ID4 I cry when the First Lady dies, I cried the first time when I saw it in the theater, and every time afterwards. And now that she's the President on Battlestar Galactica, and you know she's gonna die, I'm a mess every time she comes on the screen.

The Fox and the Hound scarred me for life, man. I don't think I could make myself watch it now.
The movie that's most likely to get me crying, although it's not necessarily the saddest, is Forrest Gump. The scene at the end at the grave (not mentioning whose to avoid spoilers)... oh God, I'm tearing up just thinking about it. My big, manly straight old roommate and I once got each other bawling just by describing it to each other.
