What scenes in movies always make you cry, no matter how many times you have seen the film.... and no matter how lame the film is!! We have probably had topics like this before, but oh well.

I always cry in Looking for Alibrandi when the guy suicides and there is the funeral scene...

Whale Rider always makes me cry, it is such a great film.... I always cry in the scene where she gives the speech at the school play.

Rabbit Proof Fence always makes me cry too, at the end.

I saw the film The Pianist and it was incredibly moving.

Can't think of any others at the moment, but there are definately more....

Same here.

'Titanic' is the worst for me. Regardless of how lame it all is, I begin crying as soon as the ship hits the iceberg. Then start wailing when the guy turns back the clock....

'Paradise Road' is another one I cried throughout..

I watched Looking For Alibrandi yesterday and I had teary eyes when she was explaining to Michael that everyone knew who John's father was. I was just about in tears. The book sets me off every time though. Not that bit but when she finds out about the suicide and can't cry because she's too angry.

I was just about crying when I watched Big Fish yesterday. Once when they were in the bath and once when they were at the river. If you've seen it you'll understand.

Dead Poet's Society sets me off as well.

The only movie I have ever cried in is Dumbo. When Dumbo has to leave his mother and everything :( So sad. :(

Yeah!! Far out that was so sad. I feel like such a wuss saying this, but here goes:

I cry at the end of 'Life is Beautiful.'

I also cry in this chinese film called 'To Live' when the landlord gets shot, when the daughter gets bullied, when the daughter dies giving birth, when the son gets crushed by bricks... pretty much every 20 minutes. It's a sad movie.
