Films that made you cry

Rabbit Proof Fence ....stayed with me forever

Bridges of Madison County, my favourite film too.

The Railway Children. A group of us bunked off college to see it when it first came out. Not a dry eye between us at the end (and that included the boys). It still makes me cry 50 years later!

The Incredible Journey (probably not particularly well known film of the book)

Bamboo I'll never watch it again! ??

Bamboo? BAMBI!

Oh yes, Marydoll, How Green Was My Valley!

Love Actually took me by surprise. I was blubbing during the intro, all the families meeting and saying goodbye at the airport. And by the end DH refused to leave with me, “until I’d composed myself”.

Oh, and Titanic. And Gone With the Wind, when Bonnie died.

Carousel and West Side Story, every time.

I have been known to well up at adverts though.

Can't watch I, Daniel Blake. I know only too well about people who live those lives due to my job.

Brokeback Mountain
Seraphine
Rabbit Proof Fence

Au Revoir Les Enfants and Les Choiristes.

Not being horribly pretentious, they are worth a look.

Goodbye Mr chips (1939)
It`s the bit were someone says"It`s a shame he never had children of his own" Mr Chips says"But i did ,thousands of them all boys!" And that`s me sobbing my socks off!

Oh yes fairisle that version of Goodbye Mr Chips was so sad.

Just literally finished watching The Light Between the Oceans it made us cry. Very touching.

Imitation of Life
I`ll Cry Tomorrow
Dark Victory (and the British remake, can`t remember the title)
The Champ

Goodnight Mr Tom - gets me every time!

Oh yes MaggieMay. Love Story

A Night to Remember. Old Titanic film. When an old gentleman is comforting a small boy. Gets me every time. Even just thinking about it.

To Sir With Love
It’s a Wonderful Life
E.T.

I don’t think anyone’s mentioned Marley and Me. I’ve never seen it but friends have described it as one of the saddest films ever.

Just googled the remake of Dark Victory, it was Stolen Hours, set mainly in Cornwall.

Blinded by the Light - the scene between father and son

Black Beauty

Saving Mr Banks

(and many others)

The Railway Children, when she says "My Daddy" Makes my eyes sting just to think of it. The end of Gladiator and of Ben Hur. Goodnight Mr Tom , and lots of others I'm sure

La La Land - absolutely not the ending it should have and Goodnight Mr Tom, which has absolutely the right ending

Oh my, now you have me going back to the very first ones which were - The Yearling, and My Friend Flicka (and I am not THAT old, probably were on when we first got a tv??)

More recently - The Boy in The Striped Pyjamas, I Daniel Blake (I have been in a similar scenario and may be again so it is still terrifying ....) Schindler's List and obviously Marley and Me!

When I was younger The Yearling and Ring of Bright Water
Have sobbed in many films over the years.
Most recently the film Lion had my in bits.
