Shadowlands was the last time a movie made me cry. I don't understand why this movie is not better known, it's an incredibly moving story.

For me, it's that one scene in Steel Magnolias which is so visceral and soul-wrenching. I tear up every single time I see it.

Without A Trace (1983)A movie that's VERY slow at times.....but if you're able to make it to the end, a finish that's INCREDIBLY moving, and one that's GUARANTEED to bring a tear or two (and, for anyone who's never seen it, or has no access to it, there's a YouTube video HERE of the film's last few minutes (though of terrible quality), that gives you an idea of how it all plays out in the end. SPOILER ALERT !! This, without a doubt, is the kind of ending we'd like to see in ALL child abduction cases).... SAVE FERRIS

I love Untamed Heart, I had my dad watch it and the next day he said, "What a marvelous love story" He had done the same thing with my mom when they first met. He would follow her home from work at night without her knowing, to make sure she got home okay I watched Untamed Heart for the first time about a year ago. Both the leads were well cast, good support and a bit grittier than I thought it would be. Oh, to find something so ideal and perfect, yet only to be a given for such a fleeting amount of time. Even when Adam broke into Caroline's house it seemed forgivable. His outlook on life, understandably didn't come from the same boundaries we place on our own. Adam's intentions were not needed to be subject to condemnation here.
In my ideal world, I was imagining the same film with Slater and a homo attraction for a waiter who was downtrodden. It could have made for a better film than the over-praised and accoladed drudge that is Brokeback Mountain. Untamed Heart is a hidden gem, the animal and animated films listed are tear jerkers, even How to Train your Dragon. I'll add some war movies. -The Deer Hunter -A Bridge too Far -Tears of the Sun -War Horse

The ending of Arrival is a punch to the gut, but very uplifting.

It was a more innocent time. What did your mom think when she found out? You're welcome, Sulla. My mom thought it was very nice of him

I can relate to being given a fleeting amount of time. We come into each other's lives for a reason and it hurts to say goodbye

I love that movie. The Las Vegas farewell scene is heartbreaking. I can't not choke up when Susan Kohner silently mouths the words "I love you... Mama"

Her poor mother, that was so sad, makes me tear up just thinking about it. Check out Untamed Heart if you get a chance

Hachi: A Dog's Tale (2009) will ruin you. I've never cried so hard at a movie. I was literally blubbering. I was destroyed. That's pretty much exactly how I'd describe my reaction to it. +9: Edward Scissorhands Toy Story 3 My Girl Hope (2013) Grave of the Fireflies Saving Private Ryan The Fly (1986) Requiem For a Dream Brokeback Mountain Is it Japanese animation? I remember a friend showing me "Grave of the Fireflies" and being somewhat disappointed. I liked it pretty well, but after all the hype I'd heard, the real thing was bound to suffer in comparison.

No, it's not animated. It features Richard Gere and Jason Alexander. The original story takes place in Japan, but the modern film is set in Rhode Island. Hachi is an Akita. A similar story is Greyfriars Bobby: The True Story of a Dog (1961). It's set in Scotland and Bobby is a Skye Terrier.

If you’ve seen the Futurama episode Jurassic Bark...it’s like that, only a full movie.
