Movies That Make You Cry

sooo I was randomly crying (I can't imagine how I'll be on hrt!) and it made me think of this question. What movies make you cry?

For me the biggest two were

Up

Metropolis (old silent movie)

but I do some other times too (It will feel more natural after transition)

I also had the habit of crying for the bad guys in kids movies when I was younger.

AAAAnyway what movies make you cry?

Hah! I cry over episodes of the Simpsons sometimes. One that really gets me sobbing is Seven Pounds.

Any movie with a lot of emotion will get me going though.

I have little kids so this can happen a few times a week or even day :)

Yes...the first few minutes of Up. OMG! Every time. Im glad I haven't seen it since I had my meds upped.

And I tear up when Nemo's mommy dies trying to protect her eggs even though you don't see it.

At the end of "Saving Private Ryan," the scene at the gravesite had me crying like a baby.

Same thing happened during the final episode of "Lord of the Rings," when all the people at the ceremony bowed to the Hobits in tribute.

I'm tearing up just thinking about that scene. Geez! ;)

I don't really cry at films really. They have to be REALLY sad and either be a true story that is sad or have something to do with suicide.

One film that got my heart a little, I didn't cry, but almost welled up was Blood diamond when a character dies.

Another film that got my heart much more intensely than Blood Diamond was Constant gardener. It's an amazing movie but I found it to be very sad. :( Again it made me well up, but possibly more so than blood diamond did.

Another film that got me was a film called Boy A. It's about a boy who in his youth befriended another boy who was being abused by his brother. This boy reacted to that by becoming somewhat 'evil' as in killing animals, finding pleasure in others pain. It took a turn and he killed a girl, Boy A was there (he calls himself Jack in the movie) and I think somewhat joined in, possibly out of fear from his friend. Who really knows. He had a tough childhood too, his mother dying from cancer and a father that didn't seem to really care about him. He'd go home beaten up and his father wouldn't even notice the black eyes. Nor his mother who was lying in bed, but then she was dying so maybe that excuses her a little. He is released from prison and changes his name to Jack his original name is Eric. Jack gets exposed when after an act of heroism. I won't give away the ending in case anyone choose to watch it, but needless to say the ending is sad. It's a gritty film, nothing very glamorous about the film. Which helps it portray a realism about it, which is what I liked about it as well as the story it self.

One movies I saw that always makes me cry alot is a holiday movie called, The Christmas Shoes.

It is based on the song by the group Newsong.

The name of the song is the same as the movie and it makes me cry to when I hear it.

I am a complete sap when it comes to movies. Here's my list...

Pan's Labyrinth

Marley & Me

Toy Story 2

Prayers For Bobby

Those are just a few of the recent ones. There's so many, I can't remember them all, but I am known to cry at Pixar films and Disney cartoons.

Omg, I CAN'T watch that movie. Cannot. It reminds me too much of when my dog died last year, and it's like...physically painful for me to even think about it.

Will Smith's a fantastic actor.

My list, short as it is. For the record, I hate this near-vendetta for crying so I try to avoid sad stuff and stick to horror flicks/comedy.

-What Dreams May Come. Every. Time. It's an incredible movie. If you haven't seen it, you should definitely give it a shot, it's...it's just beautiful.

-SLC Punk. Best crying scene I've ever seen in a movie.

-Too Won Foo. It's silly because it IS a comedy movie, but at the end, I always tear up.

-Dead Poet's Society.

-RENT

-Boondock Saints, the first time I saw it.

That's all I can think of.

WALL.E

I love all the Pixar movies and Sarah reminded me of TS3. OMG. That ending was just evil emotionally. But other than the shut down I don't remember anything but mostly hope and joy during Wall-E. Now in a few years when my kids are older and I think back to my youngests first Halloween and my oldest dressed as Wall-E...ah crap...ok. Yeah...he's gonna make me cry now too but for different reasons.

Schindler's List. Nothing bothered me untill the ending wth the guilt Oscar had comparing his property to being able to save more lives.

I rember crying from The Fox and Hound as a kid, but after that there's not very many movies that get me choked up.

For me, I would have to list:

Love Story

Away From Her (Canadian film by Sara Polly)

Ladder 49 (the ending gets to me, every time)

Penny Serenade (Cary Grants stars in it)

West Side Story (When Maria is holding Tony's body)

      happy trans birthday! I can't speak personally on the subject, but I hope hormones bring you the changes you're looking for <3 
    • MaeBe
      That’s super healthy, to see that something that becomes common has less effect on you and that you are able to decipher these feelings.   Sadly, this trend tends to only deaden good feelings as we tend not to let bad feelings attenuate the same way.   I have noticed less euphoria, but still feel the dysphorias that I have. Sometimes the good sneaks in and reminds me, but often time it’s just me seeing myself in the mirror and being comfortable about what I see when embracing my realized self. I may not get the same buzz I once did, but I don’t feel incongruous when looking at a more “drab” reflection.    Wishing you strength, you are amazing!

      Congratulations! and Happy Trans Birthday @LittleSam! That is such a BIG milestone.  I can still remember walking out of my clinic with my first HRT presciption.  I was on Cloud-9.  Wishing you all the best in the start of your new Journey!

      maebe thank you I try to be. I thank God for blessings, try to share them, beg forgiveness for my shortcomings n vow to try to do better...2 priests have said no, God doesn't condemn you just for being trans...but apparently evangelicals do   I shall vtry dear thank you  
    • MaeBe
      Meet him at the being good to others part of Christianity. At the heart of it, there are excellent tenets of the faith. Those that condemn are judging, Jesus would have us be selfless; stone casting and all that. Are you a good person? Are you putting good into the world? If your gender is an issue for God, let God judge. In the mortal realm, let your actions be heard. 
    • missyjo
      and just fi sweeten it..I'm catholic n he hasn't been for years..he's evangelical..whatever that is
    • MaeBe
      Let’s stick to cite-able fact. Most of my posts have been directly in relation to LGBTQ+ rights as it pertains to P2025 and I have drawn direct links between people, their quotes, and their agenda. I have made reference to the cronyism that P2025 would entail as well, by gutting, not cutting, broad swathes of government and replacing it with “conservative warriors” (I can get you the direct quote, but rest assured it’s a quote). All this does is constantly force the cogs to be refitted, not their movement. To say that agencies have directly defied a President is a bit much, the EPA did what Trump told them to do at the direct harm to the environment, the department of agriculture did the same by enacting the administrations forced move to KC which decimated the USDA.      How about Betsy DeVoss for Education? Or Bannon for anything? What about the revolving Chief of Staff position that Trump couldn’t stay filled? Or the Postmaster General, who did much to make the USPS worse?   Let’s not mix politics with racism, sexism, or any other ism. Because Trump made mainly white, male, appointments—many of them not, arguably, people fit for service—or unwilling to commit to term. I can argue this because, again, he’s up for election and will do what he did before (and more of the same, his words).   Please delineate how the selected diversity appointments have negatively affected the US, other than being black, women, or queer? Representation matters and America benefits when its people are inspired and empowered.

      When I first started figuring things out, I got a lot more euphoria. Every time a friend would use he/they pronouns for me, I'd get this bubbly feeling, and seeing myself look masculine made me really happy. Dysphoric state felt more normal, so I guess I noticed the pain it caused me less.   Now, it's more just that my pronouns and such things feel natural, and dysphoria is a lot stronger -- I know what's natural, so experiencing the opposite is more jarring than everything. The problem is, most of my natural experiences are from friends, and I rarely get properly gendered by strangers, much less by my family. I've found myself unable to bind in months due to aches, colds,, and not wanting to risk damage.    It partially makes me want to go back to the beginning of my journey, because at least then I got full euphoria. I'm pretty sure it'll be like this until I medically transition, or at the very least get top surgery (you know all those trans dudes online with tiny chests? Not me, unfortunately). It's a bit depressing, but at least I know that, eventually, there's a way out of this.

      Major mood, right here ^^^    I've listened to Lumineers to a long time (a major portion of it by osmosis via my mom), so that is almost painfully relatable
    • RaineOnYourParade
      As for getting a button-up/formal pants suit, you can try to talk to her more -- Cis women in tuxes have worn tuxes in recent years, after all, (for example, Zendaya) so it can still be a relatively safe topic. For jumpsuits, I'd recommend going with a simple one with a blazer, if you can -- this'll make it look overall more masculine. There's a lot of good brands, but going for one without a lot of extra glitz on it will make it look less feminine under a blazer. I don't know many specific brands though since I usually just get my stuff from chain stores, sorry :<   When it comes to your hair, if you can't cut it, you can look up tutorials on fluffing it up instead. If you can pull it off, it can look a lot shorter and more androgynous instead!
