Beaches Terms of Enderments and Brians Song

and of course Terms of Endearment
 
Only 3 that is hard to narrow it down!
Steel Magnolias
Pay it forward (I was bawling)
Ghost
 
1. The Best years of our lives. (Frederick March, Myrna Loy)
2. Penny Serenade (Cary Grant, Irene Dunne)
3. Wuthering heights (Ralph Fiennes, Juliette Binoche)
 

My top 3:

Somewhere in Time (Christopher Reeve and Jane Seymour in a time travel romance that ends badly)

Out of Africa ("I had a farm in Africa...")

Joy Luck Club
 
The Thorn Birds (even tho not movie, mini series)
Ghost
Terms of Endearment
 
I cried hard at Titanic. Not really at the Jack/Rose story but when they showed the frozen baby with his/her mom I completely lost it...especially because I know it was a true story.

The only other thing that has really made me cry super hard (I'll tear up at most everything) was the season finale of Six Feet Under. I was still crying the next day for hanks sake. It was awful.
 
Terms of Endearment
Steal Magnolias
Beaches
Stepmom and Notebook are very close in the running.
 
I very rarely cry during movies. It takes very good acting/script to get me to cry. But here's my picks (not really in any order):

-What's Eating Gilbert Grape- I cried the first time I watched it and I cry when I watch it once a month every month.
-Radio- The scene between Radio, Coach, and Mary Helen
-The Fisher King- Amazing Robin Williams movie. I bawled for three hours after this movie.
-Awakenings- Again, Robin Williams, and Robert DeNiro. Great movie, but made me cry.
-Steel Magnolias- I knew it was coming, I knew it. But I still lost it, but not until Sally Fields monologue in the cemetary.
-Here on earth- I was hysterical when he read Birches. It's always been my favorite poem since I was little and my grandfather read it to me. And it's a great movie.
-A Walk to Remember- Cried each time I watched it, then watched the alternate ending and hated that. So if you like this movie, don't want the other ending.
-Where The Heart Is- Natalie Portman gave an amazing performance. Cried when she was left, when the baby is found, again with the Sister thing and then again at the end with Forney.

There's others, but these are the ones that get me every time.
Oh, and if anyone watches Scrubs, I cry like a baby the minute Brendan Fraser jumps on screen in his last guest apperance. :sad:

OMG , I loved somewhere in time. I would love to go to Mackinaw Island and stay in that hotel someday.

-----------------------------

Another scene that absolutely does me in is just after Shelby dies and Sally Field is driving to pick up her grandson.. The music playing in the background chokes me up so bad I have a hard time breathing.. :(
 
Let's see....The Champ with Ricky Schroeder..."wake up Champ, wake up" Ughh, I have tears in my eyes just thinking about it.

One True Thing with Meryl Streep...sobbing in the movie theater...
Brians Song, lose it just hearing the song.... :guilty:
 
I have to add a few more. I cry very easily at movies!

1) Boys on the Side
2) Fried Green Tomatoes
3) Ghost
4) Where the Heart Is
 
Color Purple, Steel Magnolias, and the VERY end of Return of the King, where Froddo says his goodbyes! :sad:
