Tearjerkers

Okay...so I used to cry @ Kodak commercials. Hallmark always gets to me too. I even get a bit sniffly with Folgers.

Now I was wondering (as was ABC) about the biggest tearjerker movie or scene in a movie you have ever seen.

I don't agree with "The Champ" having never seen it but the kid is very convincing.

I'm sure there are loads of others out there....No," Dirty Dozen" doesn't count !

Saving Private Ryan....can't remember exactly how it went, but it was the scene where they came to inform the family of the death of one of the brothers. I remember a car or two coming up a long driveway and the Mother sinking down the door jam to the floor, for she knew what was coming.

Actually the complete opening sequence choked me up.

A powerful scene. I think it was based loosely on the story of the "Sullivans". Unimaginable grief.

Life Is Beautiful.
A number of scenes brought me to tears, but the final scene in particular,when the boy finds his mother and tells her he won the game.
