I noticed that Million Dollar Baby wasn’t on the list-- the all time biggest tear-jerker for me.</p>

<p>What’s on your list? </p>

<p>I would add Gran Torino to the list. Blue (of the Three Colors trilogy) always gets me. </p>

<p>Gran Torino makes me cry just as hard every time I watch it again.
I rate Gan Torino 4 crybaby faces :(( :(( :(( :((</p>

<p>In addition to the list (I hate when the list is pictures you have to click through, but I don’t think these are on it)</p>

<p>Ordinary People
Kramer vs Kramer
Pay It Forward
Titanic
Seabiscuit </p>

<p>Schindler’s List. </p>

<p>Oh wow, how did we miss that?</p>

<p>In America. I remember watching this with my daughter, her friend and my then 10 or 12 year old son. The girls and I were sobbing and my son (who up till that point had liked the movie just as much as the rest of us) was yelling, “this is a dumb movie! This is a stupid movie!” </p>

<p>The Bridge to Terabithia.
A River Runs Through It
The Great Escape
Stand By Me</p>

<p>2 more- Dead Poets Society and The Cider House Rules. </p>

<p>Showboat
Camelot
Les Miz
King & I
Oliver</p>

<p>The Railway Man
Shadowlands (Winger, Hopkins, 1993)
Terms of Endearment
Places in the Heart</p>

<p>Diary of Ann Frank</p>

<p>I love this list, because it actually includes my no. 1 tearjerker of all time – the original Imitation of Life. They used to air this every year, and I would watch with my mother and bawl my eyes out. And this summer, my ds2 made dh and I watch The Notebook for the first time. My dh cried harder than I did. Of course, Brian’s Song. The year I didn’t cry at It’s a Wonderful Life is when I knew I had to quit my job because my heart had become hardened.</p>

<p>And Remember the Titans is my family’s favorite movie, but it doesn’t make us cry. We just love it.</p>

<p>A lesser-known movie, “Return to Me,” with David Duchovny and Minnie Driver makes us cry every time we see it. so many scenes are tear-jerkers, but the one scene where Duchovny comes home, with blood on his shirt, and collapses inside his front door just opens the floodgates. </p>

<p>Toy Story 3. Andy giving up those toys, leaving for college, arrrg!!</p>

<p>bambi made the list, but I also was sad watching Dumbo.</p>

<p>Actually the movie I think should head the list is Old Yeller. Even thinking about that movie puts tears in my eyes, even after all these years. Sniff. </p>

<p>I cry at almost every movie so I’ll just mention a few, </p>

<p>An Officer and a Gentleman
When Harry Met Sally
Sleepless In Seattle
The Pursuit of Happiness</p>

<p>@Hayden: yes about “Dumbo” - when his mama sings “Baby Mine” there’s not a dry eye in my house. </p>

<p>I have some problems with the CNN list. I think of “Love Story,” and for sure “Armageddon,” as among the worst movies I’ve ever had to sit through, so they don’t get any tears from me. I’m glad they included “Green Mile,” but I certainly would have put “Shawshank Redemption” in there, as well. I can’t watch the last 10 minutes of “To Kill a Mockingbird” without crying - or the opening credits, either. Best theme music ever?</p>

<p>My immediate reaction was Field of Dreams (one of my very favorite movies ever; love when Ray realizes it’s his dad playing catcher and cry every time), Beaches, & Steel Magnolias. So many other good tearjerkers as well on the list. One more for our house is Apollo 13. I don’t cry buckets, but I have a few tears every time when I realize what innovation under pressure was required to bring those 3 astronauts back in a real story. Like emilybee, I cry at many movies.</p>
