That's one more reason I like you, Nomad. :-4

I cry any time an animal is hurt in a film. Wanted to walk out of Dances with Wolves. Bawled my head clean off at all the Benji films back in the 70s.

Once in a huge great while I'll even cry at a love scene if they're parting or it isn't working out but it's got to be done for real and not that cheesy pseudo romance stuff. If it's a death scene like in a hospital, forget it, I'm gone. And if it's got firemen in it, I'll make an embarrassment of myself. I cry at the mere sight of a fireman. I revere them.

You know what really makes me cry ?

The Texas Chainsaw Massacre. That poor soul just needs someone to love him. Hes misunderstood, thats all.

Daz anyone who says they haven't is a liar. I had tears in my eyes at the end of Buster earlier and I've seen it untold times. Cried at a lot of films.

Have not cried much at films, but seem to have an almost weekly cry fest when I watch Greys Anatomy.

Yes, occasionally I still do. "Braveheart"? Some acting, but - a big pile of manure!

ROFL!

Braveheart was a pile of manure ?

Thats ludicrous !

I cried at the end of Midnight Cowboy when I saw it first when I was about 14, I am sure I have cried at a few of them, you know the ones that actually have a moving part in them, things about sons and fathers makes me cry on occasion, because me dad died when I was 20, and that makes me sad sometimes.

No.

I must reject your answer.

American Beauty was pretty sad.

Thats a good film that one is, its quite a chick flick kinda movie, but its one of the best of those types, a good film definetly. Though I didn't cry, thats my story and I am sticking to it.

Post by **Bryn Mawr** » Mon Mar 12, 2007 4:26 pm

Two that come to mind are "The Day they Gave Babies Away" and "They Shoot Horses, Don't They?"

Definite three hanky jobs both.

Talking about Braveheart I used to go out with this Scottish one, and she looked a but like that girl in Braveheart, she was a good looking woman, and so I get a bit sad cause it reminds me of her, but then again, she didn't actually get killed by an English Sheriff, I don't live in the hidden valley in Glencoe, and I am not a burly medieval Scottish Warrior bloke with a blue face, so the whole thing kinda breaks down, but you know its always fun to fantastise. :-6

They Shoot Horses Don't They?, thats a good film, Jane Fonda was a fine looking woman in her day, the other one I don't know. But if anyone says they cry at Ghost now, I shall personally turn them into a ghost, and give them something to cry about! :p

PS, when you say "Hanky Jobs" I presume you need the hankys because you are crying so much, not because you need to clean yourself up.

AnnaE · Post by **AnnaE** » Mon Mar 12, 2007 4:37 pm

Of course.

That's the only time I cry, to be honest.

I cried like a baby when I saw:

King Kong

Monster

Boys don't cry

Magnolia

Dead Man Walking

Brokeback Mountain

And all this "Oh, cathastrophy/the end of the world is coming" films pathetically enough. They're made to make you cry. They don't even need to be good, you're still weeping like there was no tomorrow, don't you? :wah:

I thought that the Hanky was the British standard measure of cryability just as the Dog is the Inuit standard measure of cold.

My most futile attempt to get someone to cry watching a film was showing Brassed Off to koan.

I have only seen Magnolia and Dead Man Walking out of those movies, and they are both good movies, but I didn't cry, though Dead Man Walking was a very tough movie in parts, not very nice. I am not sure why you would cry for a big monkey, though I can understand that you probably cried at "Brokeback Mountain" because those two attractive men (whoever they are) decided to be gay cowboys and not hunky female love interests, and they also probably die at the end because its not acceptbale to be a hot gay person in a movie, have sex, and have no comeuppins so you have to die at the end. The others, I have no idea what happens in them, something sad I am thinking.

So what is a high rating for a good weepy movie? "Hanky Factor 88" or something?

I've never come across a film with more than a five hanky rating - factor 88 would be serious dehydration!

Well what about the Ken Loach film, "Kes"? That must be about a 7 hankyier? God that upset me when I was little, its so sad. :-1

Post by **spot** » Mon Mar 12, 2007 4:56 pm

Nobody's mentioned Tommy yet and it ought to get a look-in. As should "Oh What A Lovely War".

Oh I cried at one of the Star Trek movies when Mr Spock died from Radiation, because he was fixing the ship (again), and he had a death scene behind a glass door, and he died, then they shot him out a torpedo tube at a new planet, and Captain Kirk cried a bit, and its a kinda young lads sci fi nerd thing, but I admit it, in 1985, that made me a bit weepy, about a one hankier.
