Spartacus - OH and I came out of the cinema crying our eyes out - I didn't sleep for nights worrying about Jean Simmons and that bit where she held the baby up to touch the feet of Spartacus [Kirk Douglas] on the cross - sniff sniff sniff!!!

Bambi, Dumbo, any Lassie film, The Yearling, and just lately Yanks

oh yes all of those Ann............and I cry as soon as I see Lassie coming over the hill :-)

Lassie always seemed to be standing holding up one front paw!!!! gets me every time

Ann gets me every time especially in "Lassie Come Home" when he hobbles home at the end.....omg blub blub blub :-)

the champ,
free willy
titanic
green mile
schindlers list
dumbo & bambi "when i was small"

so now i refuse to watch anything with animals in :-\

After Hatchi im the same Stray....no more animal blubs for me :-D

after the promise
its a really sad film
though i dont normaly cry at anything

I sob like a blithering idiot at the end of 'Billy Elliott' - not because it's sad, but because I feel so proud of him having, at last, become a success in the world of ballet and his dad, brother and best friend are all there in the audience to proudly witness it.

Truly, Madly, Deeply with Juliet Stevenson and Alan Rickman and Fried Green Tomatoes at the Whistle Stop Cafe with Kathy Bates and Jessica Tandy, both get me every time :-)

Oooo Wend, i know where you are coming from with Billy Elliott!!

I rewind that last bit where he come's flying on stage......over and over again.

I can't tell you how many times i have crashed into the patio window and i have ripped me tights on more than one occasion!! :-0

An officer and a Gentlemen, Beaches, Dirty Dancing, Mr. Hollands Opus....to name but a few



Nicky

Hi All....

Have to agree with Shelli .....Truly , Madly , Deeply is such a tearjerker but a fantastic film........ :-D

I adore black and white films as well and the one that gets me every time but I never get fed up of is "Boys Town" with Mickey Rooney....Adorable!! <3

The only film i have every cried in was called...

Imitation of Life

Ive not seen that one Julie....will google :-)

Just remembered an oldie - From Here to Eternity when Montgomery Clift plays the last post after Frank Sinatra's character died. He had tears down his cheeks as did I many many moons ago.

Vera

Vera, is that the film where Frank Sinatra says to Montgomery Cliff
"Play Taps for me, Play Taps", which he does on the bugle. That expression gets me every time, which ever film it is from

Julia in Derbyshire

PS Frank Sinatra did alot of dying, aswell as singing LOL

Julia

Just googled 'taps' as I am ignorent of Military jargon. I don't remember that but it is likely because I don't remember them filming together any other time. It was the one with Burt Lancaster and Deborah Kerr and that scene on the beach. Or am I getting muddled - iit was 50 years+ ago

V sad any way. I might try to get it on DVD for xmas.

Vera

Gone With the Wind when Clark Gable said ,Frankly dear i dont give a damn and Vivian Leigh said Fiddley dee tomorrow is another day.

I went to the flicks with my elder sister in the 1950,s and saw the re release of it.and we both blubbed on the tram going home

Goodnight Mister Tom

Hi Linda

My Mum loves that film.....think she has worn out her dvd of it :-)bless
