re: Saddest or most tearful scene in a movie to you?

The end of My Dog Skip.

Good fricking answer. Cried like a baby as a kid, but even as a adult, it makes me feel sad.

The Wraith

"who are you, bro?"

"you said it, bro"

The scene in click when he runs out in the rain and dies with his family present after wasting his life and losing everything and everyone he loved.

Also the scene in Intersteller when Cooper is reviewing the recordings from his kids after nearly instantly moving ahead like 30 years in time.

I saw Marley and Me on an airplane. I had to hold up an inflight magazine to hide the tears streaming down my face.

I still get misty when Forest asks Jennie if little Forest is stupid.

A frozen Jack Nicholson at the end of The Shining.

One for me is Green Mile when they execute Coffey.

Oh shite, good one.


That reminds me, I know it’s become a punch line, but when Hanks is trying to knock his own tooth out in Castaway I can’t help but get choked up. Dude is absolutely alone and feels like he’s going to die on that fricking island.

I guess the movie is polarizing but I’ve always loved it.


Older stuff, the ending of Kramer vs Kramer is pretty emotional.


Also, Vada’s reaction when Thomas dies in My Girl was always pretty tough.

Going to Blue Bayou.

The book is sadder than the movie. That last hunt when I read it to class is hard to get through.

When Forrest asks Jenny "Is he...you know....smart, or...like me?"

It is a testament to the depth of that character and Hanks' performance that this line is always misquoted.

"I-is he smart or [chokes up]"

is the actual line. He's not able to get out the words "like me", though he does say that when she says the boy's name is Forrest.
