Which movies brought you to tears?

51 posts in this topic

In the last few weeks, I've had this underlying longing for crying. It's not that I'm particularly sad about anything, it's just that I would like to feel the whole palette of human emotions. And I've heard from some people that they had some powerful emotional releases after watching particular movies.

So I'm curious: Which movies habe you seen that touched you deeply and triggered an emotional response in you?

That's my area of expertise. Although it depends on the person. But average people, including myself, usually cry during these : The Shawshank Redemption, Interstellar, Shindler's list, Forrest Gump, The Green Mile, Leon the Professional, Gladiator, Intouchables, Wall'e, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, Your name (Kimi no na wa.), The Time-traveler's Wife, Inside Out, The Sixth Sense in no particular order.

Enjoy.

Ohh, thank you:x, I watched it 3 times.

The movie I've watched several times. The whole movie builds up to the happiness of that one scene. ❤
