Well of course I remember it.......but at the risk of digging an even bigger hole.......I didn't think it was terribly well acted. But maybe I just missed the point of it

. I'll get a copy of the film this week and if you get hold of 'The Pianist', we can discuss the relative merits of both films.

Yup, I pulled that **** on my kids before SPRING BREAK and EASTER...they did compare it to the resurrection of Christ (which from what I read is what the director intended...) after he is crucified (Lorenzo being the Christ child of course!). I teach them Competitive Inhibition and how to complete a pedigree (I actually use the royal family more than the movie...Queen Victoria and her incestuous family that is!) BUT they always remember the movie through the years...

you're kidding me, right? there are a few things I know will make me cry instantly-that scene is one of them. but you go get your copy. and if after you watch it, your opinion is unchanged...you better go ahead and get dre's digits

I'll watch 'The Pianist', but if you think you're going to win, you're wrong!!

philadelphia always made me cry.
dead poets of course and also bloody sunday.

oh, god. life is beautiful. convulsive sobbing.

the english patient. when he's carrying her body across the desert? oh, the pain... can't stand it.

babel. just saw it this weekend. one of the best movies i've ever seen. i'm a sucker for the heart-wrenchers.

Red · #29 04-10-2007, 12:05 AM

I'm not a big cryer when it comes to sad movies, so the few that have made me bust a tear or two stick out in my mind:

Babel - the scene with Brad and Cate where he kisses her. Man, THAT's love.

Brokeback Mountain - "Jack, I swear". Uncontrollable sobbing.

A Beautiful Life - I typically avoid WW2 movies as I just can't seem to get ahold of myself when I watch them and this is a biggee. Particularly when the little boy, who looks alarmingly like my nephew, comes out of his hiding place and there's that wide shot of him all alone.

Titanic - No tears when Jack bites it but I always lose it at the final scene - the smooch on the stairs and everyone claps, knowing this is Rose's final dream before she passes away.

...and I know this doesn't really count b/c it's tv, but the last 5 minutes of Six Feet Under. That has haunted me and I burst into tears every time I see it.

Oh god... the first time I saw that was at the cinema and I had no clue it was going to be sad! So I had no tissues! Was a nightmare.. always worse when you're trying not to cry! And then a woman a few rows in front of me sobbed out loud.. so I didn't feel quite so bad!

I pretty much blub at anything... sad or happy. I'm such a cry baby!

I have to say Blackadder never made me cry! I bawled like a baby at Terms of Endearment, Beaches and The Champ.
