Movies That Still Make You Irrationally Emotional

I know this thread has been done before, but my Dad and I rewatched A League Of Their Own tonight, and it doesn't matter how many times we've seen it, the end in Cooperstown always tugs at our heartstrings.
Maybe it taps into our own memories playing organized team sports when we were younger, but no matter the reason, it kinda feels good when a film can elicit genuine feels. The ending to Cool Runnings gets to us similarly.
What movies still get to you, regardless of how many times you've seen them? Or are my Dad and I a couple of babies.

Brian’s Song.

The greatest showman when the theater is on fire. Hugh is told Zac is still in there. Hugh pauses for a split second as he looks at his wife and kids before rushing in. The horror from his wife and kids that their father is going to die.
I feel no greater emotion than when I see scenes like that in movies.

Agree with League of Their Own... but Old Yeller gets me.

The Dawn Wall always gets me. Seeing how excited and proud Tommy Caldwell's dad is of him always gets to me. My dad is older, and while I'm not a frick up, I was not really living up to my potential during college and the first couple of years after, so that kind of stuff always hits me hard.

Rocky - Win or lose, the grit he showed to finish the fight and the respect he got from everyone, including Apollo.
Rocky 2 - When Apollo drops him for the last time and Mickey is telling him to stay down. When Rocky gets back up and you can see Apollo disappointed, for 2 reasons I think. One, I don't think he wanted to keep beating on Rocky. But even more, he knows he's given Rocky everything and still can't keep him down. Then there's the thrill of Rocky finally doing it and winning.

Since I had my daughter a few years ago, I cannot watch the end of Armageddon without a snot cry. Last 2 times I just left the room to "run to the bathroom" really quickly right after he gives Affleck the patch
The Natural hits me hard, in a good way. That was one of those movies that I always watched with my Dad.

Black Hawk Down. Never watched it. Can’t bring myself to do it knowing what they went through. I get pissed off just thinking about it. I think others would classify that as irrational
Movie I’ve actually watched: The Last Jedi. Nothing like being insulted for being a Star Wars fan and paying for it.

Watched “Hachi: A Dog’s Tale” and spent the next three hours ugly crying, like red-eyed, convulsing, snot-nose plugged up, crying.
