13 Movies that Made Me Cry
- Blind Side
- ET
- Steel Magnolias
- Shawshank Redemption
- Braveheart
- Time Traveler's Wife
- The Notebook
- P.S. I Love You
- Schindler's List
- The Green Mile
- Million Dollar Baby
- A Beautiful Mind
At first I was going to rank the movies by "cried the most" and then I realized I cried a lot in all of them. If I had to pick the top "Made Me Cry" movie it would be Blind Side. What movies made you cry?
For more lists of 13 Thursday Thirteen
Team-Up Thursday: Fun
The Team-Up theme for this week is FUN. Tina at Just A Minute of My Time captured the joy of homecoming. My photo is my son during out annual family photo shoot at an abandoned building. He is not a fan of our annual photo tradition but he endures. This year the location was perfect for climbing, jumping and exploring. This year's location had the perfect opportunities for fun.
I could watch a Steel Magnolias marathon and I'd cry every time. Fried Green Tomatoes and The Color Purple are two others. Sometimes it's just good for you! *smile*
Happy TT,

Happy Thursday! I've never watched Blind Side, but I cry every time I watch Steel Magnolias! I've never seen The Notebook, but I cried when I read the book. Another old book I cried over (my first one ever) was Love Story....in Spanish class. Yeah, the book was taken away.
I cry at movies..happy, sad... I cry. My kids always tease me because I cried at Toy Story (you know that scene where Buzz Lightyear launches himself from the balcony, and the music is playing, and he realizes he can't fly...sniff, sniff....) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iy-1xI1nbao

There is nothing like hormones and those movies to get me going.
Have a great Thursday!

Saving Private Ryan was the first movie that had me crying in the first 3 minutes!

You pretty much covered any crying list I might make. I generally try to avoid movies that make me cry, but a lot of these are really good.

Hey, since having kids I've become an emotional wreck who will cry at just anything!!

A great list of movies. I really like the Shawshank Redemption. That's an excellent movie.

ET - yes gets me every time
Steel Magnolias - cryed was not the word
P.S. I Love You - oh how I cried watching this one
The Green Mile - the nasty cry
My Sister's Keeper - how could you not cry in this one
Beaches - the tissues are by my side throughout the whole movie ... I can go on and on.
What a great list - would make a great page too.

I don't usually cry at movies. I will say that you have some really great ones listed there though.
Posted by: Maria | October 14, 2010 at 04:53 PM
There are a few of these I have not seen yet, but one not mentioned that always gets to me is Beaches.

Terms of Endearment (a big sobber in college)
The Color Purple (from very early on in the movie)
Sense and Sensibility (the proposal scene at the end)
Up (really choked me up, so poignant)
The Hours (might have been the timing... during my divorce)
My Dog Skip (my son and I together, years ago)
Those are a few of my weepy ones...
Happy TT!

Steel Mags...holy crap, I cry every time. I cry at most of them you posted but a few I have not seen. "Titanic" was another one that made me hysterical...Disney movies at times too...

I cried at 1, 2 and 3. I cry at all sorts of crazy things. Toy Story 3 got me at the end, it even had Amanda crying at the end too. And the Lion King too, darn Disney movies. :)
And great team up photos too!

fun, indeed! great pair:).

I cried at almost every single one of those movies too with the exception of 9, which I don't think I've seen.
You always have great stuff over here. I've enjoyed looking through your photos. Even your SOOC ones are fab.
