I'm not much for crying, but these have made me at least tear up:

- Old Yeller
- Born Free
- (The last scenes of) The Mission
- Bambi

- Jake

-Bambi
-Fievel (when "somewhere out there" starts to play, i'm a goner)

Requiem For A Dream.

Every. Time. Once the Winter title card comes down, the tears start to come. So sad.

Ones I remember crying in:

-While You Were Sleeping (I know, random! I cried at the end when Sandra was crying)
-The Lord of the Rings: Return of the King (You bow to no one.)
-Cheaper by the Dozen (random as well!)


Ones I cried so hard that I had to be escorted out of the theater by my friends:

-Armageddon
-The Perfect Storm (this was legitimate, I have a HORRIBLE fear of drowning and deep water.... and I got dragged to see the movie by my friends)

I've never seen Beaches & can't say it looks very appealing to me.

Haven't see it, but the name's familiar. Remind me what it's about.
