Out of interest, what is the film you have cried most at? I hardly ever cry at films, but I am utterly beyond help at the end of 'Titanic'. Oddly enough, it isn't Jack's fate that makes me cry, but *right* at the end when we see Younger Rose walking through the Titanic once more and all the victims of the Titanic surrounding and applauding her. First time I saw it, I bawled my eyes out. *sniffle*

The other that comes in close succession is at the end of ROTK from the Grey Havens onwards. lol! When I saw it at the cinema for the first time and the film ended, I thought I had gathered myself. But then, once the credits rolled and "Into the West" started playing, I was off again! Hmmmm...I think I may have gone through at least one and a half packs of tissues on that one.

I've only cried at three movies. The first was "The Lion King" when Simba realizes that this dad is dead. The second was "Armageddon" when Liv Tyler reaches out to the TV screen and says "Daddy." And the last movie is "Pearl Harbor" when Danny dies. Strangely, I cry most often when I read books. In ROTK, when Theoden is dying and says to Eomer "Hail, King of the Mark" I always burst into tears.

[BittenBuggy]

Afraid I'll have to go with RotK. There are PLENTY of parts that really get me.

1. Theoden: "I go now to the house of my fathers', in whose mighty companty, I shall not now be ashamed"

2. The music they play when Frodo starts crawling up the mountain. Its not low and ominous like you'd expect by the time they get to Mt Doom - its hopeful... *bawls*

In the book - I cried when Theoden talked to Merry about not being able to hear his stories, and asking him to think of him whenever he smoked his pipe.

Braveheart also made me cry... I don't care for Mel Gibson in those kinds of roles, but he truly did a good job and the story itself is just phenominal.

I cry at lots of movies Name a movie and I probably burst into tears at some point

Whale Rider makes me blubber uncontrollably. I'm tearing up thinking about it.

I cry at The Lion King from the minute 'Circle of Life' starts up until the end. Ice Age is my other all time worst one for crying. And Finding Nemo, when the mum fish dies.

RotK also gets me from about halfway through till the end, and I was the same with Into The West. Soon as that started up in the cinema, I was off. And had to make an effort to conceal the fact, since I was with my parents who think any emotion is a sign that you are evil.

I have to admit when Rose discover Jack is dead, that makes me a little sombre.

But all out, surrounded by tissues weepy? Has to be Somewhere in Time with Christopher Reeve and Jane Seymour, after he comes back from the past and starts to fade away.

That and just about every scene that Etienne and Isabeau appear together in LadyHawke. The scene where she wakes up in the snow at dawn and they can see each other but never quite get to touch was not only filmed beautifully but just heart breaking. (

Just a quick edit to add that yes, Theoden's speech to Gandalf at his son's death and Boromir's end brought tears to my eyes. And no...it had nothing to do with Sean Bean

[Roisin]

There are scenes in The Hours that really get to me as well.

[Hathor]

ROTK. The second that makes me cry is the moment where Sam says "She had ribbons in her hair..." From then onwards, it's blubbering until the end. This is highly embarrassing, especailly as the first time I went to see it, it was a Father-Daughter occasion and Dad had to gentyl prise me off his jacket as apparently my tears were soaking through his shoulder.

God, the shame.

I cry at quite a lot of stuff, I'm trying to think of something recently that made me blubber quite appallingly. Deep Impact sticks out in my mind...

God, such a girl at times.

[BittenBuggy]

Oh - Also,

Ghost makes me cry at the end, when he's going up to heaven...

*sobs just thinking about it*

[queenoftheshire]

I cried when they killed the wolf in Dances With Wolves.
I've only watched the movie once and can't remember his name!

[Roisin]

Two Socks.

[ghettoelleth]

Any time I see, think, say, read, smell, or hallucinate the words: "There are some wounds that cannot be wholly cured" If I'm not crying by then, it gets me everytime.

And this one:

"Give my Daughter THE SHOT!"
Shirely M. Terms of Endearment

Oh, and I almost forgot. When Mister is dragging Nettie out of his yard and she screams:
"Nothing but death can keep me from it!" In the Color Purple.

These are scenes I've read and seen a million times. I can be walking by the television on my way out the door and I'll stop, watch them and start to cry.

[GypsieRose]

This may sound weird, but the only play/movie that always reduces me to a helpless wreck is Uncle Vanya. I start bawling when Sonya says "He won't be coming here any more, will he?" and continue through the end of the play.

When I saw the Australian movie adaptation, Country Life, I had to go cheer myself up with a cup of cocoa afterward.
