Now THAT's a gret movie: THE ELEPHANT MAN. And if you are sensible it really touches you. One of the greatest movie I've ever seen. They should have given the Oscar.
Yes, a true tear jerker and one of the most accessible films by David Lynch.

..........for those who missed it before we went back in time........I feel like I'm in an episode of Star Trek - I'm sure I said I'd watched the film Atonement and thought it was one of the saddest films that I'd seen in a long while. Keira Knightley was really good and it is a great film but be warned, you'll be crying!

Yes do - very sad but much better than that Steel Magnolias film that you encouraged me to watch.

Did you ever see the movie about the little boy with the acquired immune deficiency syndrome virus? His pal, played by Brad Renfro, finds companionship & a familial sense of belonging.

The biggest tear-jerker i've ever seen was a Greek movie called "Iphigenia" by director Micael Cacoyannis and starring Irene Papas.
It's the story of Agamemnon who believes that by offering his only daughter, Iphigenia ,to the gods, the winds will turn and his ships will be able to sail and go to war. The part where Clytemnestra (a fenomenal Irene Pappas) beggs her husband not to sacrifice their daughter is heartwrenching and left me crying my eyes out in a way that i did not even bother anymore to use my hanky cause it was no use anyway. I left the theater with no make-up left on my face whatsoever.
I've seen it was released on dvd this year, but only for the american market.
