I was out on a date and remember a grown man crying at the end of the movie, The Bodygaurd. I admit, it was a great movie and would watch it every chance I get. But to see a grown man cry at the end where Kevin Costner and Whitney Houston kiss outside of the airplane, was funny. Tsk, tsk, tsk, Bob! Shame on you for giving away the end of the movie for those who haven't seen it yet! Remind me to never read your movie reviews.
I thought of another of my absolute favs: "Of Human Bondage" based on the story by W. Somerset Maugham. There was an early 1930s or '40s version with Leslie Howard and Bette Davis but the really great one was from 1964 with Laurence Harvey and Kim Novak. By the 1960s they didn't need to be quite so discreet about the kind of girl we were watching. | |

"Of Human Bondage" was of the tragic codependant type - definately enough to make ya cry! But the 1964 production was so beautiful it would make you cry, too. So beautiful! So beautiful! I have it in my video library. May need to watch it again soon. My older brother turned me on to it years ago. (Yeah, KerryO, your street creds are good with me - real men do feel and cry, too! ) | |

| What's your favorite tearjerker movie? Posted: 1/25/2007 9:41:31 AM | I'm gonna go with Titanic for one I have watched in the past several years.
I forgot about Brians song one, that was a good one!!!
There is some feel good movies that could bring some tears...not necessarily a "tear jerker" that I like...."It's a Wonderful Life" and "An Affair to Remember" come to mind.
I have never seen the "Notebook". I have heard so much about it.....just never watched it. I'll wait till I get a girlfriend to watch that with someone! Dont tell me the story...I want to watch with someone, someone special...Allright, back to the comedy movies I guess!!  | |

| What's your favorite tearjerker movie? Posted: 1/25/2007 10:00:08 AM | The ones that make me cry are "Champ" with Jon Voight when he dies and his son TJ cries over his dead body.I cry everytime. I agree with Shorebound "An Affair to Remember" does make you cry in the end when Cary Crant discovers his love of being in a wheel chair.

| What's your favorite tearjerker movie? Posted: 1/25/2007 12:20:36 PM | There are some romantic guys in here..ehhh?? Micro, I didn't know you had in ya..LOL. I was shocked that "Beaches" hadn't been put in here yet, I remember leaving the movie theatre a little early because I couldn't keep the tears from flowing...and had just lost a really good friend to Ca the year before..
The other one that comes to mind is a biography of a local guy, "Patch Adams" My Daughter has worn this CD out...but it stills brings a tear to both of us ... very touching and romantic. 
"Notebook" is a my list to buy...loved it... | |

| What's your favorite tearjerker movie? Posted: 1/25/2007 2:09:19 PM | | I watched a very long show called Stairway to heaven, A Korean love story. I don't cry often at movies, but I guarantee this one will pull at the heartstrings of most people. | |

How about "the notebook" that was a good movie that stirred somethingdeep down. I just think that him doing the same thing over and over, and her remembering at the end was priceless. Tellin the story as if it was someone else was good as well!  | |
