I would have to say Schindlers List without a doubt.

I was in bits. :cry:

Out on DVD soon, How about you?

For a factual film I must agree with you--however I am always in tears when I watch 'Braveheart' even though I understand that a lot of the film is not accurate :cry:

A film I'm always bangin' on about - Once Upon A Time In America.

Always gets me welling up towards the end - the Morricone soundtrack helps set me off too. I do love a good epic!

I've seen some moving films, but the ONLY one that made me actually move to tears was Schindler's List indeed.

One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest. Superb performance from Jack Nicholson.

Edward Scissorhands gets me at times. And the end of Fight Club is quite moving.

That's one of 3 that I can think of, others are Au Revoir Les Enfants and The Killing Fields.

The DVD of Schlinder's List isn't out over there yet? Weird, kinda thought they'd release the really big films simultaneously.

The ending of Schindler's List when they visit his grave aways gets me in tears.

English Patient when Amon Goth returns to the cave to find his friend's wife dead is particularly emotional for me.

The DVD of Schlinder's List isn't out over there yet? Weird, kinda thought they'd release the really big films simultaneously. I second The Killing Fields. Very moving.

Now here's a more obscure one: I cried in the middle of the university library earlier this year at the end of The World of Apu, the end of Ray's great trilogy.

I'd almost have to add our own Life Is Beautiful. It's clever, because it makes you mostly laugh in the first half, but then it becomes an atrocity exhibtion (a surreal mix of poetry, humour and horror) and it hits you in the ending when Benigni is actually killed while you would expect him to come out anyway. So when my mate and me came home we didn't say a word for 30 minutes or so. No tears, but very close, and just because we managed somehow to keep them inside and "behave like men"...

my GF cried a lot on saturday after watching that one. yeah, it lets you that feeling inside.

well, Bambi is terrible (and i´m serious!), i still can´t understand that they actually made it for the kids! :nuts:

another one: Love Story (with all that crying music!) is a fooking drama!

I can't believe no one's said the obvious answer: "E.T."

A movie to cause millions of children everywhere to cry like little bitches with skinned knees.

She came back just now,not ammused in the slightest! Think im in the spare room tonight. She said the lad in the shop burst out laughing at her. Much the same response she got from our son & myself. She may ground me & take my computer away!:(

That's the one where the Jewish boy pretends to be a Nazi in order to survive, right? A very very very good film indeed, the one bit I really remember is the lad trying to reattach his foreskin on his circumsized member.
