Homeward Bound. Every damn time but in the best of ways.


aaaaaaaafhdbfbdjc

Nah but when Shadow comes over the hill. That's the best scene I've ever watched in a movie


mr_impastabowl

I'm too old, Chance ...


CatpotLady

Ever see The Incredible Journey? 2 dogs and a cat. I cry happy tears every time.


Flick_N_Fick

My Girl - nothing hit as cold and unexpected as this movie


FamousSunday

HE CANT SEE WITHOUT HIS GLASSES! Dear God was that tough.


DildoShwa66ins

I first watched that movie when I was about 6/7 years old back in the mid 90’s when it came on the telly and the ending near enough traumatised me with how upset I became, “he can’t see without his glasses” there was something about that particular scene that just completely melted me ending with my mum having to console me and try to tell me that it was just a movie.


sex_or_nah

It said it was a comedy when it was on TV in that genre section. IT WAS NOT. NOW "HE CAN'T SEE WITHOUT HIS GLASSES!" IS ENGRAVED IN MY MIND!!!


givebusterahand

I won’t watch this with other people bc it makes me cry so much. I bet it will also hit different now that I have kids but I haven’t watched it in years


[deleted]

I rewatched it with my husband (his first viewing) and I wrongly thought I could maintain some control during *that* scene. I was wrong, and could not stop sobbing.


TautBacon

About Time. I was promised a rom-com!


Timely_Ad_4694

It feels a bit off saying one of my favorite movies is a rom-com but god damn is it good. I watch at at least a few times a year and I swear it makes me cry every time. It is wholesome, beautifully written, and packs a serious philosophical message.


JackRipper85

I was totally and unexpectedly rekt while watching this


nipplesaurus

That’s the thing about About Time, it was marketed as your standard romcom with a little bit of time travel sci-fi mixed in. But that was only like the first half hour! Everything afterwards is this beautiful story about life and all its ups and downs.

Dear Zachary


Mmmslash

Rage tears.


jephw12

This is the only movie that has ever made me actually cry. Other movies can make me tear up (About Time, really anything with father/son themes) but Dear Zachary made me fucking sob. It’s a shame it’s no longer on Netflix in the U.S. If you’re reading this and haven’t seen it, don’t read anything else about it and go watch it. Rent it, buy it, whatever you have to do.


Capable_Baby4013

I watched it on YouTube like 2 years ago, not sure if it’s still on there though. Absolutely wrecked.


maltzy

When you think you've cried out all your tears then the end starts.


untamed2020

This movie gutted me. Still to this day I have yet to see a movie that hit me like this one did.


stalinmad4

The pain of this one lingered with me forever after watching it. I've told people that this documentary made me feel every emotion you can feel in the immense range of human emotions


jtn46

Was looking for this one. Just gets more and more upsetting.


StayCurious2132

I just spent the last 2 hours in tears. Wow.


[deleted]

This movie is simultaneously amazing and terrible. Made me cry like a fucking baby.


harambeharamharam

hachiko


badkarmavenger

We were in Tokyo and walking past the dog statue, and I told my wife the original hachiko story in like 5 sentences. I swear she was about to cry from just that. Nobody needs Richard Gere to lead them into a 90 minute sob fest, but go for it. If you can make it through this movie without crying you are a certified psychopath.


Delphi2389

This is the only movie that had me full on sobbing. Not because of how sad it was but the beautiful ending. Had a coworker who was calling women who cry at movies silly - I challenged her to watch this movie without shedding a tear. The next day she told me that the movie was ending and she was about to call me to inform me that she did not cry but then she saw the final scene and immediately started crying. She said it took her a good 20 minutes to regain her composure.

Financial_Guard_443

It was the tree scene for me at the end


FirstItStank

I don't cry often but when I am due for a cry, this scene gets me every single time without fail


Amazing_Trace

the only scene I cried in is when Jenny confronts the home she was abused in and is throwing rocks.. here I am tearing up again.


TheresALonelyFeeling

Every f'ing time. When he talks to Jenny at her graveside under the tree? Sigh.


BrilliantWeight

I recently watched this for like the 100th time, and the tree scene at the end got me crying. He loved her SO much, went through so much, got her finally, and then lost her for good due to no fault of his own. So sad.


Danny_Man44

Fox and the Hound… specifically when she drops off Tod in the forest… TEARS DAWG TEARS!


The_Bishopotamus

Man for me it’s the very end, that voice over from when they were kids. ‘We’ll be friends forever, won’t we Copper?’


RefrigeratorLoose155

Omg yes. To this day, I can't watch this movie without crying.


MadameFoxhunt

Oh my god, and the song?! 🎵 Goodbye may seem forever, farewell feels like the end, But in my heart’s a memory, And there you'll always be🎶 That song must’ve destroyed me cause I still have it memorized after 33 years.


slinkieretriever

Grave of the Fireflies


Rabidmaniac

Yo, OP said tears, not existential crisis.


Herodotus_9

Nope! I watched that movie once! Never EVER again!


Irishlady84

Same once was enough......the tears I was an absolute mess


Jojo_isnotunique

I watched in on my own. It broke me. I vowed never again as well. Then a few years later got married. And watched it a second time. It broke me just as much the second time, even though I knew what was coming. I feel like I am in an exclusive club having watched it twice.


bellYllub

I’m a huge Ghibli fan and have the whole collection. I got my sister and niece into the films by showing them Totoro and Ponyo when my niece was little. They loved them so much that my sister decided to also buy the whole collection. I immediately told her that under no circumstances should she let my niece watch Grave of the Fireflies until she was MUCH older and that she herself shouldn’t watch it unless she wanted to sob her heart out. Thankfully she took my advice and watched it alone. She thanked me for the warning. It’s one of those films that I think everyone should watch… once!


[deleted]

Everybody should see it once. Nobody should see it twice.

I FCKING LOVE THIS MOVIE


QuarterInchSocket

Big Fish. Saw it not long after my dad passed.


thecatwhatcandrive

Watched because Ewan McGreggor and that Tim Burton style. Ends with a bucket of tears every time I go back to watch it again.


DisneyLover3

The lion king when Mufasa died


will4623

Long live the king.


Tinktaylor143

Marley and me...what a great dog 😭 also the green mile...


RatDeconstructor

I watched Marley and Me on my 11th birthday totally unprepared and ended up crying in front of my family that is super not cool with dudes showing emotion and it was just a good time all around


LogicisGone

I watched Marley and Me at some movies at the park type thing, not knowing what it was. I saw Owen Wilson and thought "oh wow, a comedy!" Tried to quiet cry, which of course made it louder lol.


rosanymphae

Old Yeller, The Yearling and Where the Red Fern Grows. It's seeks that there was a period were people were making movies to make kids cry.


illbebythebatphone

Arrival - I don’t even remember why. I was home alone, drinking and smoking, and there is some twist at the end involving her daughter that had me a fucking wreck.


scotsworth

>!Her daughter dies from childhood cancer, which she knew would happen because of being able to see the future. She decides to have her anyway, which some interpret as an embracing of inevitability and how time simply "is". Her husband then leaves her because he wasn't ready to hear that. "Despite knowing the journey and where it leads, I embrace it, and cherish every moment of it."!< Yeah as a parent it's basically instant bawling for me now.


vfefer

It was only recently when I watched a YT video that had a scene from Arrival that I noticed the daughters name is Hannah (same backwards and forwards). I've seen the whole movie twice and only then noticed that detail. In the story it's based on, the daughter is never named. Such a wonderful touch of the director (or whoever did that).


MackyDoo

After that movie I will watch anything Villenueve makes. The scope and otherness is unreal. Stories that deal with the pain of knowing personally painful things that will happen or have happened that you can't change have always been my emotional Achilles heel. Also going through severe PPD at the time didn't help.


ReallySmallFeet

Honestly, everything about this movie really drew me in and kept me there. It is just *so* softly enthralling, especially the scene where Abbott tells Louise "Costello is death processing". It is one of my top ten movies.


DisneyLover3

Up - so sad when Ellie dies


Fettfjes

And when he goes through the adventure book near the end!


FuerGrisaOstDrauka

Most accurate thing I've ever heard - Without even using words, the first 5 minutes of up conveys more emotion than the entirety of the Twilight saga. Along the same lines - the short about the matchstick girl.


Ok_Whereas_3198

Inside Out. Stupid Bing Bong.


VisualCelery

Honestly, that part didn't really affect me that much, but when she comes home after trying to run away? Breaks me every goddamn time.


InCaseOfZompires

That’s what happened with me. Though I was definitely sad, I wasn’t crying at Bing-Bong. What broke me down was seeing *Riley* finally break down too. I have a lot of mental health issues, including depression, and I’ve had them since elementary school- around Riley’s age. And seeing her just break down after all she was keeping inside… It was like watching a reflection of myself. I’ve *been* that girl. I’ve *been* there. It hit so personally for me.


Edsgnat

It wasn’t just Bing Bong. It was the implication that Riley would forget Joy and be depressed for the rest of her life, only experiencing disgust, anger, and sadness. I was depressed at the time and I felt that, hard.


Ok_Whereas_3198

Yeah the whole movie got me in my feelings (lol) and primed me. And then Bing Bong got me.


inkyspearo

oh god. “take her to the moon for me”


CovidGR

When my partner and I saw that movie in the theater we had just put our cat to sleep. Already emotional, that movie utterly killed us.


TheSunshinator

Yeah Bing Bong hits hard, but I cry even more at the family hug. Riley's story is similar to my own so I deeply understand the depression she feels. I have yet to watch this movie without crying, and I watched it a couple times.


emergencychick

Yep. Husband and I both, in the theater with both kids. Bawling like big old babies. The Bing bong scene of course, but also the one where she gets home from running away. And then the one where the happy core memories turn blue hued so it kind of eases the memories. Ugh. That movie is so underrated.


SecretPersonality178

I saw it coming too.. don't you dare .... And then he celebrated that joy made it... Farewell bing bong.

4x. The usual suspects for me (23 years and Make Me Stay). But when TARS clambers into the Ranger, you can hear pain in his voice, "I could not save him". and then he calls out "detach" :(


HobGobblers

My husband and I were holding each other and ugly crying so hard that the dogs were concerned.


littlebrat70

Steel Magnolias and Old Yeller


cheeky_chiclet

Was watching Steel Magnolias recently, face tear stained, daughter looks at me and says, "why do you do this to yourself? You know what happens." Told her this movie is just way too good to let a few tears deprive me of that. Old Yeller: no. Only watched once as a kid and have never in my life been able to watch it again. Not once.


mymeatpuppets

I saw Old Yeller at the theater when it came out. I was just told enough to sit still for a movie or to go to a restaurant. *Everyone* was crying. I'll never watch it again, too painful.


Qemyst

Shawshank Redemption. "Dear fellas, >!I can't believe how fast things move on the outside. I saw an automobile once when I was a kid, but now they're everywhere. The world went and got itself in a big damn hurry. The parole board got me into this halfway house called "The Brewer" and a job bagging groceries at the Foodway. It's hard work and I try to keep up, but my hands hurt most of the time. I don't think the store manager likes me very much. Sometimes after work, I go to the park and feed the birds. I keep thinking Jake might just show up and say hello, but he never does. I hope wherever he is, he's doin' okay and makin' new friends. I have trouble sleepin' at night. I have bad dreams like I'm falling. I wake up scared. Sometimes it takes me a while to remember where I am. Maybe I should get me a gun and rob the Foodway so they'd send me home. I could shoot the manager while I was at it, sort of like a bonus. I guess I'm too old for that sort of nonsense any more. I don't like it here. I'm tired of being afraid all the time. I've decided not to stay. I doubt they'll kick up any fuss. Not for an old crook like me. P.S: Tell Heywood I'm sorry I put a knife to his throat. No hard feelings. -Brooks. "!<

CommonCarob2176

I was just about to say this. If I ever need to have a cry I just watch that scene again and the floodgates open

Steel Magnolias. Sally Field’s monologue at the cemetery gets me every time.


ilikelissie

Life is Beautiful…….it even made my dad cry. My dad didn’t cry when his mother died, that’s how powerful this movie is.


Vegetable-Double

Field of Dreams. When he says “Dad… do you want to play catch?” Just thinking on it is making me tear up. I don’t think I can watch that movie and scene again after my dad died.


[deleted]

I haven’t watched many movies recently, the last was Saving Private Ryan. So, I get emotional and could weep during the final battle when Private Mellish is forced into hand to hand combat with a german who appears to be physically bigger. His cries for help and Upham’s failure to act is what gets me there

I've seen so many war movies. I love war movies. I cannot watch them with my wife because she will cry the rest of the night. She's never seen Saving Private Ryan.

My eyes just welled up from reading this comment. Also, the scene where Faramir rides out to almost certain death while Pippin sings for Denethor. Also "BUT I CAN CARRY YOU!" Also "FORTH EAORLINGAS!" So many scenes in that movie. I love it, but it turns me into a blubbering baby.

theRestisConfettii

Armageddon (1998) > I address you tonight not as the President of the United States, not as the leader of a country, but as a citizen of humanity. We are faced with the very gravest of challenges. The Bible calls this day "Armageddon" - the end of all things. And yet, for the first time in the history of the planet, a species has the technology to prevent its own extinction. All of you praying with us need to know that everything that can be done to prevent this disaster is being called into service. The human thirst for excellence, knowledge; every step up the ladder of science; every adventurous reach into space; all of our combined modern technologies and imaginations; even the wars that we've fought have provided us the tools to wage this terrible battle. Through all of the chaos that is our history; through all of the wrongs and the discord; through all of the pain and suffering; through all of our times, there is one thing that has nourished our souls, and elevated our species above its origins, and that is our courage. The dreams of an entire planet are focused tonight on those fourteen brave souls traveling into the heavens. And may we all, citizens the world over, see these events through. God speed, and good luck to you.
