Edit: Oh, yeah, I forgot. I should probably contribute to the topic. Anyway, I've never cried, persay; but I've come pretty close. I almost cried in Radio. And behind the guise of virtual anonymity, I will admit that an episode of House brought me to the verge of tears. Shhhh!"
Agreed on Radio. The only movie I've ever cried during.
Ordinary People probably touched me the most. It's about a suicidal teenager and had the most realistic, quasi-happy ending possible.
Also I've been watching a lot of Jim Carey movies and Eternal Sunshine, The Truman Show, and even Yes Man all had a significant impact on how I view life and plan to live it.
'A Perfect World" (It didn't make me cry but it was the only movie that made me feel shit) I hate anime but Miyazaki's movies were always in my taste such as 'A Perfect World" and "Howl's moving castle"
I'm a weepy little chimp, so I've got quite a few. SPOILERS AHEAD, if you care.
P.S., I Love You - I get some flak for this one from my friends, but holy crap, this move was beautiful.
Forrest Gump - So many touching moments, I don't even know where to begin.
Five People You Meet in Heaven - Both the book and the made-for-TV movie are amazing.
It's a Wonderful Life - Two scenes get me every time. When George Bailey sees his brother's grave, I get a chill. But when his brother comes back at the end and toasts him, oh man, I can't fight the lump in my throat. Just a beauituflly touching movie all around.
There are movies, just like there is music, that carry a personal meaning to me. I try not to think about them often, just because they bring up long past memories, yet I can't let myself remove them from "the vault".
I was touched by Lords of Dogtown because I am (and probably will always be) a skateboarder and the movie was based on real events that happened to real skaters. It's just nice to see how skating has changed so much but it still means so much to so many people.
The Pursuit of Happiness turned me from an easy going slacker to a hardwrorking scholar. If you have seen what I look like before I started picking up books and what I look like today, you will probably say I am no longer the same person.
So I read this post and immediately grabbed all my dvd's and spread them across the floor. I waited about six hours and none of the boxes ever attempted to touch me. I started hearing voices after the third hour.... JK... One movie that hit me hard was Pay It Forward with that little kid from Forest Gump, yeah that movie was pretty touching.
