crying during movies

We all have moments like that, when we would like to cry during a movie

what was your moment?

(MAJOR SPOILER FOR THOSE THAT DO NOT KNOW LOTR)
Mine was when Boromir died in the arms of Aragorn, and the words they exchange right before he died
"I do not know what strength is in my blood, but I swear to you.... I will not let the White city fall, nor our people fail"

And after that, when Frodo must leave, but doesn't dare
when suddenly he hears his own words and the words of Gandalf again
"I wish the Ring had never come to me
I wish none of this had happened.
- So do all, who live to see such times, but that is not for them to decide. All you have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to you "


So, anyway
what's your moment?

(I might have a new moment when I've returned from ROTK)

I guess I can be man enough to admit this. :P I only recall crying for one movie. That was The Color Purple. Killed me at several points in the movie. When "Mr." drove Celies sister away, and when Shug Avery made-up with her Father, and when Mrs. Celie finally got to see her too children at the end and play patty-cake with her sister in the fields where they grew up. Killer movie and it still puts a lump in my throat. :o

I cant remember crying but I do remember feeling depressed or very sad. That was when I saw the ending of Neon Genesis: Evangelion. Its Awesome but very very very deep and a very big pill to swallow :)

I think my only one was Forrest Gump too.

When he was talking to Jennys grave about how smart "lil Forrest" was, I started bawling.

Why should our government send our soldiers to foreign soil to protect freedom of speech, when our freedom of speech is being taking away everyday by the same government.

the only movie where i actually shed some tears was Forrest Gump. and more than once!

and then a movie where i was close to tears: Tears of the Sun

I thought ROTK would do that to me but it didn't. Yes there was some deep stuff in it but it just didn't do it for me. Maybe because it's a fantasy and it could never happen IRL. Or maybe it was just because all the people in the theater were so damn loud and annoying. :P

Never actually tears, but so far tthe moment has actually come from the ROTK GC game. 0.o
"A wizard is never late, no is he early" *pause* *the Riders of Rohan rally behinf Gandalf* "He arrives precisely when he means to." All the while that music is playing, the one where they charge down the steep hill. Then it went into in-game mode where I slaughtered many Uruk-hai and craked up being the sadistic bastard that I am.:D:alliance:

Dead Poets Society, something about it, don't know, I was littler when I saw it and I guess I was just bummed at the time. Got to me...

It's A Wonderful Life I'm a sucker for. The end especially. I know its like the most overplayed of xmas movies, but that ending, so good!

For some reason, and I don't know why, I tear up at the end of the movie Dogma.

Weird!

There is a movie called "My life" with Michael Keaton which is pretty sad and I think I cried more than once while watching it :eek:

But usually, a movie has to be great to affect me enough.

I always hide it...
But sometimes a movie does touch me deeply...

LOTR is great example of this...

I just saw ROTK

You indeed want to cry at some points
although the story would've been much better if they hadn't cut Eomer out so much
In the extended version, he has a bigger role;)
That guy is a great actor

Anyway
I almost cried
but didn't:)

I cry when I laugh really hard sometimes (and sometimes it happens in school and I get made fun of lol)

Sometimes in a movie if its really boring or stupid I just start cracking up because of the stupidity.
