That's weird. Films don't make me cry but that episode of Scrubs where
Brendan Frasier's character pays Dr Cox a visit and dies halfway through the episode but we don't find out until Cox arrives at his funeral
is the only thing that has made me come close to crying.



:(

I seem to remember a lot of people being very sad at Toy Story 3. I always found that trilogy too twee to find it emotional.

For me it was more of the nostalgia that made it emotional. I didn't cry, however, the last scene was way more upsetting then the holding hands scene.

Absolutely not.

A person must be an emotional minefield if they end up crying at a ridiculously well paid person pretending to die (or similar).

Nope.

I'd accept someone crying during a documentary about some poor african child in dire need of nourishment, but crying for a film is just plain silly.

If you're engrossed in the story of the film it doesn't matter if it's reality or not, empathy still works the same.

The OP is asking if people CRY at films, not feel sad watching them.

I've seen plenty of films that have made me feel sad, but I just personally think crying is an extreme response.

I see, fair enough.

I've never cried full-on at a film either. Shed a tear or two at most.

I think people need to define "Cry". Is that including audible weeping? or just a few tears? :p

I just imagine a load of grown men blubbering like little girls. Hence my first reply. :p
 
Not a film, but I also cried when I read Macbeth. And tehre are a few places in Robin Hobb's books that make me cry every time I read them. Also, at least two bits in Pillars of the Earth, the origin of the dead man in Yossarian's tent in Catch 22, the end of Fern Gully and The Fox and the Hound, Batteries Not Included, the bit with the artilleryman in the second disc of Jeff Wayne's War of the Worlds (also, come to think of it, Thunderchild on disc 1), The Human Equation by Ayreon, that guy who played the soprano sax on an audition episode of Britain's Got Talent, when the ewok dies in Return of the Jedi and, on the right combination of research chemicals, any song by Zero 7 or Morcheeba.

From 5 mins of the start I cried non stop through The Phantom Menace. I really balled when Jar Jar ****ing Binks first came on screen.

Die Lucas die.
 
Green Mile for me, I think the whole audience in the cinema was sniffling and whatnot at the end of it, had a tear in my eye and a lump in my throat...:(
 
The Green Mile i am sure is pretty much the one everyone thinks of when something like this is mentioned.

Million dollar baby was the most recent film that got me.
