But he comes back again someday.... :D

Requiem for a Dream absolutely...

I can't watch For Love of the Game without a box of tissues nearby.
I defy any person to get thru Brian's Song without crying... :)

Like Shani, though it's not a movie... but Charlie Brown's Christmas will do it for me everytime...

Aw, damn. I'm never quit sure what I'm supposed to feel at the end of that movie. Definitely powerful.

Parts of Braveheart
AI
The part of LOTR where merry (or pippin?) is singing and the soldiers are riding into certain death
Oh, and the Green Mile

-Shine (not to be confused with 'the Shining')
-Imortal Beloved (Beethoven, unplugged)
-Mindwalk (I saw this when I was about 7 or 8, and it taught me to question)
-Memento (it'll blow your mind, backwards)
-Trainspotting (best representation of heroine lifestyle ever)
-Life is Beautiful a.k.a La Vita è bella (There's something about this movie that really hits home)
-The Elephant Man (genius)
-Casablanca (Humphrey Bogart and Ingrid Bergman broke my heart)
-Star Wars Episode 4: A New Hope (this movie almost made me wet myself the first time I saw it)

I think those are my biggies, I'll post more if I remember.

JimmyTheHutt 11-11-2004 10:12 AM

And a new one, that I actually saw a while ago but never bothered to put up:

Life as a House

This film is a gut wrench if ever there was one. If you ever want to see Hayden Christiansen act, see this film. Lucas has ruined him.

A Beautiful Mind - my brother was schizophrenic. A powerful movie that was *very* hard to watch.

Saving Private Ryan - the scene at the end where the German stabs the American with the knife at the end of a very long fight. He puts his finger up to his lips as he stabs him as the American soldier struggles for his life. I've never gotten over that scene. Not to mention the first 20 minutes.

The Rookie - great, feel good, inspirational movie.

Love, Actually - great romantic flick about requited and unrequited love. Awesome.

Shawshank Redemption - (unedited) The scenes where they show him getting raped and beaten are brutal. Can't remember when the last time I saw the unedited version was, but those still haunt me.

Revenge - (Kevin Costner/Madelyn Stowe) Man has affair with gangster's beautiful wife. Gangster finds out, slices wife up, sends her to a whorehouse where she's turned into a junkie and sleeps with 50 men a day. It's been ages, but when you find out what happens to Stowe and how bad she looks it's heartbreaking.

My .02.

I thought it was adorable too. Definitely shed a couple of tears. But shh...

(As an edit) P.S. The Patriot made me hate the British for like a week. When the first son to be killed died I was a blubbering idiot in the movie theater. And then when the church got burnt down with the people in it...horrible. Braveheart is also a tear jerker at times.

SecretMethod70 08-26-2005 12:20 AM

Forgive me, I'm going to bump this thread because I seem to have a masochistic love for movies that make me feel bad, sad, or whatever, so, I'd love to hear more recommendations :)

As for me:

Irréversible
American Beauty
American History X
Requiem for a Dream
Life is Beautiful
Se7en
1984
Bully
The Shawshank Redemption
Good Will Hunting
My Life (this movie is WAY underrated)
Philadelphia
8mm
Edit: forgot about One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest

ChistledStone 08-26-2005 02:31 AM

The Butterfly effect. Either the real ending or the alternate ending where he ends up Spoiler: strangling himself with the umbilical cord inside the womb . Really makes you think about how fragile the human mind is.

Also how anything, such as me breaking a window, can immensely affect the future. Scary.

mystmarimatt 08-26-2005 09:48 AM

I am Sam - Gets me every fucking time. My best friend and I sobbed through the whole thing. I'm such a mama's boy.

Life as a House - Again, just kills me. Such a beautifully moving film.

Mr. Holland's Opus - Enter cryfest...now.

Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind - Never watch this movie when you're drunk and/or heartbroken. You may as well cut yourself to start with.

Saving Private Ryan - I may be a pacifist, but I'm a sucker for a heroic ending.

snowy 08-26-2005 03:11 PM

Million Dollar Baby. I'm tearing up just thinking about it. Honestly. Every time I see it I'm depressed for like a week afterwards.

Johnny Pyro 08-26-2005 03:53 PM

A.I. Artificial Intellegence (Bad movie, but always gets me. Just when you think things are getting better, wham!)
Passion of the Christ
Hook
Angels in the Outfield (New one......ok stop laughing!!!)
Signs (The part where their all eating dinner and everbody starts crying, touching family moment, wooooooo.....man.)

Grasshopper Green 08-26-2005 03:56 PM

Hotel Rwanda. I was so sick after watching it. I was in high school when the genocide was going on, and I don't really remember it well. I called my dad after the movie, all choked up, and asked him WHY the hell we didn't do something about it. I was disturbed for days after watching that film.

Titanic - no, not because I love chick flicks. It's mostly the scene after the boat sinks, and the ONE boat goes back to look for people, and you see all the dead people in the water, particularly that woman with her baby. It kills me.

Saving Private Ryan. I really don't like this movie, and the opening war scene made me physically ill. My grandpa fought on D Day, was wounded, and lay on the beach all day until help could get to him. Watching that kind of gave me a small glimpse into what he may have felt that day, and the horrors that the men went through.

Sybill. Watching the scenes of abuse in that movie was very painful.

One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest. The whole movie is great, but watching Randle McMurphy breathe life into those men's lives and then being turned into one of them is so disheartening.

Hmmm...I guess all the movies I chose have to do with the way that humans treat each other...interesting.

spongy 08-27-2005 12:33 PM

There is a hallmark in my moviegoing, and I will get to it in a minute. First i will tell you I am quite empathic I guess, in that i can usually put myself in a character's shoes and understand why they feel what they feel. This can make my movies vastly different thatn most peoples because what theydo is kinda real to me.

Anyway, the scene at the end of chasing Amy where Holden has the sitdown with Alyssa and banky, eevry time I see it, my stomach hurst as I try to telepathically stop him from doing it. It is the only movie I can think of where every time i watch it, a part of me hopes it will be different than the other 30 or so times I've seen it.

mrklixx 08-27-2005 01:17 PM

Any movie where some guy gets kicked in the 'nads.

cyrnel 08-27-2005 02:37 PM

Many excellent films in this list but only a few stand out for me as painfully good. Standouts...
Quote:

Million Dollar Baby. I'm tearing up just thinking about it.
Rented that one last week and couldn't even finish it. Hits too close.

What Dreams May Come - Gorgeous movie but with so much sorrow.
Philadelphia - Can't get much worse than disease plus hate.
Fisher King - Williams digs deep. Can't imagine where he goes for this stuff.
Life as a House - Kline is great.
Awakenings - Williams/DeNiro, I'm in a rut.
Brian's Song... yep.

Eternal Sunshine was a candidate but resolved beautifully. The compromise of love.

The movies that affect me most are without a tangible villain. Men can be hated, punished, vanquished, and the outcome is usually predictable, often feels contrived and loses my attention even if the loss was powerful. OTOH the loss or separation by disease or accident, when the enemy is emotionless, unassailable, without human flaw, those make me feel helpless. Resolution must come from within, and if it's pushing my buttons I feel how I don't have a handle on it.

*Amores Perros

*Grave of the Fireflies
*Blade Runner (Director's Cut) - I'm so glad I studied this in high school
*American Beauty
*Red
*Before Sunrise/Sunset
*House of Sand and Fog (one of the few cases where the movie is better than the book...I read the book after and it was surprisingly disappointing overall...the characterisation is still excellent, but the pacing is rather poor and it has too much padding)
*City of Lost Children

Man, this movie could have been so much more. You could see where Kubrick was taking it but Spielberg fucked it by trying to balance family appeal with the adult subject matter. I mean, just take the opening scene with the female android in her underwear - if Kubrick had directed it she would have been stark naked. Actually I think this perfectly illustrates the difference between their directing philosophies. Schindler's List is, obviously, an anomaly for Spielberg.

No, you're like the 59017489501th. :p

Dungeon_Shade 11-29-2005 03:11 AM

The Green Mile - The entire movie was just absolutely heart wrenching.
ROTK - Frodo and Sam's relationship was not homoerotic, and most of the scenes with those two were beautifully done.
American Beauty - This mocie made me look at life completely differently. I will never look at a plastic bag the same again.
Titanic - Shut up!
American History X - This movie made me cringe more than any other movie.
About Shmidt - About Shmidt depressed me for weeks. I am terrified that it will be how my life is at an old age, and knowing that most people live elderly lives like that saddens me.
The Fox and the Hound - Damn. That's all I have to say. Damn.

Seer666 11-29-2005 08:13 AM

City of Angels- The movie itself and the point in my life when I saw it, just tore me up hard. The song "Iris" still hits me hard.
Meet Joe Black- Chick flick, but hit a lot of buttons.
Bathhouse- Chinese movie about a family run bath house. Very emotional.
Infernal Affair- the name does not fit hte movie. Chinese cop flick. Depressing as hell.
Trainspotting- Yes Jimmy, it is a "brilliant black comedy". Doesn't change that fact that movie fuckin hurt.
Transformers the Movie- I cried like a bitch when they killed Prime.
American Beauty- You've seen it. You know.
Requiem for a Dream- Pain in technicolor.
Big Fish- The end just tore me up hard.
Blade Runner (Directors cut)- "It's to bad she won't live, but then again, who does?" Says is all right there.
Phenomenon- I felt like I lost my best friend after watching that movie. Harsh. Just fucking harsh.
SLC Punk- It's just so fucked up how he dies. Great film.

All I can think of right now. I'm sure more will pop up later.

Eweser 11-29-2005 08:17 AM

A lot of great movies mentioned.

One's that come to me right now:

Green Mile - bawled my eyes out
Life as a House - bawled my eyes out (See a pattern forming?)
Field of Dreams - the James Earl Jones speech ("People will come, Ray"): goose bumps every time!

Any movie that happens to get me at the time. I could watch it one day and cry; the next day, nothing.

Seer666 12-15-2005 04:38 PM

One that needs to be added right now. The new King Kong. This film will rip you heart out.

simonrex22 12-16-2005 04:52 PM

Well, this is what i was going to post:

Apollo 13. I didnt pee before i went in and it was a long movie. By the middle of the movie I had a pain in my bladder like youve never felt before. Afterwards in the bathroom, i had to stand there for 5 minutes before anything came out cause my body had just locked it in from holding it so long. It was the longest piss i ever took and it hurt the whole time.

Anyway, Armageddon. The scene where Bruce Willis stays on the asteroid instead of Ben Affleck. It may be stupid but it brought a tear to my eye.

Sgoilear 12-18-2005 10:43 AM

Collateral: The scene where Jaime Fox and Jada Pinkeet Smith are talking in his cab. Just something about that conversation gets me.
American History X.
Mr. Hollands Opus.
The Shawshank Redemption.

But my number one film that hits me the most emotionally is an animated short called Voices From a Distant Star. I don't really want to spoil it but I cannot reccomend it highly enough.

I'll take a look at Requiem for a Dream. So many people have mentioned it that I feel like I'm missing out.

nukeu666 12-19-2005 08:52 AM

grave of the fireflies
none of the happy happy crap that most movies have where the good and innocent come out smiling at the end *sob*
