For me the movie “The Bucket List” was a tear-jerker. I know it really depends on the person, but to me this film was pretty inspiring. Having people I know pass away from cancer I found this film easy to relate to and had a close connection to it.
A more recent one – Atonement. I’m not usually one for period pieces but this one isn’t just sap love story but an incredibly take on two people that just want to be together and how our little choices everyday can affect us so profoundly. I can feel my heart pitter patter just thinking about it.
GHOST-Love doesn’t end with death
CASABLANCA-We’ll always have Paris
GLORY-The greatest sacrifice
PHILADELPHIA-What’s wrong with tour face? I have AIDS
Radio
Kal Ho Na Ho (another Indian movie :))
The Notebook
A Walk to Remember
The Pianist
Schindler’s List
The Hiding Place
Saving Private Ryan
Rudy
I Am Sam
Remember the Titans
.... and my number one tear-jerker…
@dlm812 After I saw it I regretted not reading the book first – I agree that the book must’ve been an epic story if the film was so incredible. Unfortunately I find it distracting to read books after I’ve seen the movie since some of the plot is already revealed. I’m definitely going to read something else by McEwan though…
@artificialard: I completely agree. When I saw that the movie was going to be made, I went out and bought the book so that I could read it before I saw it in theaters. I definitely recommend that you read another McEwan novel though. He’s a great author.
City of Angels. I was just thinking about that movie yesterday when the Goo Goo Dolls came on some store music. I was all yay new purse!- nooooooo, Meg Ryan, sad.

-The Land Before Time (no, not joking, if you ever watched it as a kid and remember loving it, watch it again now and tell me you didn’t cry… :P)
-and I almost shed a tear watching Becoming Jane, just thinking about how many happy endings she wrote but she never got her own :(
The Land Before Time! I haven’t watched that in so long, but that was another one that always made me sob. Now I’ll have to get my hands on a copy to see if it still sets off the waterworks…
i’ve never cried more over a movie than when i watched brokeback mountain. usually movies with animals make me a whole lot sadder than those involving people, but oh my god. hours after i watched the movie i was still randomly breaking into tears.
