This is a great post!! I haven’t seen some of these movies and will need to add them to my Netfilx account. I am visiting from 31DBBB.

I agree with: Beaches (definitely) and It’s a Wonderful Life (not really supposed to be a cryfest but how can you not tear up at the end where everyone is singing and his brother flies home is a snowstorm…) and Kramer vs. Kramer. Also – P.S. I Love You (which I went to see alone because I knew I was going to cry buckets – reminded me too much of my cousin who passed away at the age of 35 and left his 29-year old wife and 3-month old son).

Here are a few of my picks: A River Runs Through It (I’m not a Brad Pitt fan but this is a great flick); Casablanca (of course); My Girl; Love Story (I mean seriously I cannot think of a movie more designed to break you up than that…unless it’s P.S. I Love You!); An Affair to Remember…

Well I know there are more but that’s all I can come up with for now…

Thanks for stopping by my blog. If you like Imitation of Life, you should see Lana Turner in Madame X. Warning: Have some tissues ready.

Fantastic list! Just finished “Imitation of Life” and the tears were definitely flowing.

I don’t normally cry at movies. I’m a big tough hardhearted chick! (Whatever) Anyway, I really don’t cry at movies but the one that made me sob was Moulin Rouge. I know! Moulin Rouge? How can that be above Schindler’s List? I guess it’s the way that Ewan McGregor sobs uncontrollably with Nicole Kidman’s head in his lap on the stage. Too much for me to handle!

I love Notting Hill… while it does have a happy ending, it never fails to make me cry!

Movies that always kill me??

Without fail my #1 favorite tearjerker is The Notebook! Terms of Endearment is always a killer as well as Mr. Holland’s Opus. E.T. still kills me after all these years and Schindler’s List is a butt-kicker too.

Braveheart always gets me on those two scenes…you know the ones…she gives him the flower when his father dies and in adulthood he gives it back because he hung onto it so many years?? Kills me every time…

So many…but those are up there at the top!

LOVE IT! Laughed out loud at “excuse me….I need a minute”. You’ve got me thinking, which I think is part of the fun, of what my favorite tear jerkers would be. Keep up the good work!

Some of my favorites:
The 2 that started it all…..Bambi and Old Yeller
Where The Red Fern Grows
Romeo & Juliet (1968 Zeffirelli version)
Cinema Paradisio
Kramer vs Kramer
The Color Purple
Terms of Endearment
Bridges of Madison County
Glory
Beaches
Legends of The Fall
Shindler’s List (so sad I’ll never watch it again)
2 terribly sad ones that have lessened because of over exposure:
It’s A Wonderful Life and Steele Magnolias
Life Is Beautiful
The Joy Luck Club
Better stop now. I’m getting depressed!
