Candyflip Posted February 11, 2004 Posted February 11, 2004 Hello guys, I was watching movies with my flatmate at home last weekend, I was crying during the movie. That brought me a question like what are those movies that could make men cry. ( not moan!) Name me some from your experience. Thank you! My list ( I am super girly) - Jerry Mcquire " You had me at hello" - Forest gump
Jeff1 Posted February 11, 2004 Posted February 11, 2004 Well I usually do not cry, but one time I almost cried when Rambo got shot down in the helicopter.. That was sad. But really , at times I get something in my eye watching animal movies You know , like lassie or some such .
TRIPxCORE Posted February 11, 2004 Posted February 11, 2004 Definetely the movie "Old Yeller." At the end when the kid had to shoot his own dog. That made me cry but that was back when I was a kid. Have not seen it in a long time.
Bluecat Posted February 11, 2004 Posted February 11, 2004 Without hesitation, "Alien4". When Sigourney Weaver kills her alien "boy" at the end of the movie. The determined look in her eyes and the imploring look in the eyes of her "son" when he is sucked out of the ship, killed by his own mother,... Still crying while writing about it,... How ruthless women can be when you do not meet their expectations,...
The Gentleman Scamp Posted February 11, 2004 Posted February 11, 2004 One Flew Over The Cuckoos nest - what an ending! ...Get's me every time, as does Edward Scissorhands, daft as it may sound.
Sunshine Posted February 11, 2004 Posted February 11, 2004 I just watched “Torque” at the cinema. I honestly can’t remember watching such a bad movie. It was so awful that I nearly cried. In the end people were driving their motorbikes so fast that shop windows were breaking. I mean, what the ###### is that about?
Nat Posted February 11, 2004 Posted February 11, 2004 I just watched “Torque” at the cinema. I honestly can’t remember watching such a bad movie. It's a comedy isn't it a friend dragged me to watch it and haven't laughed so much in ages - must admit was tempted to get a motorbike taxi home, however wasn't clad in leather I have a male friend (really blokey) who gets teary when he watches Moulin Rouge (also hates the fact I know that ) My tear ducts have a mind of their own - always cry at An Affair to Remember, that end scene gets me every time . Also can't control the tears when I watch Babe
NedKelly Posted February 11, 2004 Posted February 11, 2004 Forest Gump does it. Used to workwith people like him and some of them died so it reminds me of them. Fantastic people.
charltonfan Posted February 11, 2004 Posted February 11, 2004 I saw Calendar Girls a couple of weeks ago ... the way they portray John Alderton dying of cancer is all too realistic ... made me cry for my dad
Roger13 Posted February 11, 2004 Posted February 11, 2004 The Currently Showing Thai movie "The Overture" brought tears to my eyes a couple of times. I would strongly recommend seeing it. Make sure you get a version with English Sub Titles if you need them. Roger

e-san Posted February 13, 2004 Posted February 13, 2004 An old male friend cried at " the bridge over madison county" and " an English patient".
tutsiwarrior Posted February 13, 2004 Posted February 13, 2004 jaysus...bunch of ignoramuses...what about Kurosawa's Ikiru, Ozu's Tokyo Story, tough guy John Ford had some good moments in Stagecoach (death of John Carradine's gambler), the old miner's farewell to Curtin in Huston's Treasure of the Sierra Madre...tears of rage and terror in most of Bergman's golden period (the priest's loss of faith illustrated in Winter Light). I might be more lachrymose than most but I sure do watch better films than you guys...sheesh...
eastbaybob Posted February 14, 2004 Posted February 14, 2004 The Elephant man, when the actress lady meets him for the first time and he starts crying because she is so beautiful. Mask, not the Jim Carey one but the Cher one, after graduation when the guy that never talks congradulates Rusty. The Wizard of Oz, the end.
tutsiwarrior Posted February 14, 2004 Posted February 14, 2004 yeah, eastbay (Oakland, Richmond, El Cerrito or Berkeley?)...the guy in Cher's Mask never talked because of his stutter...right on...good movie.
utapaortnab Posted February 14, 2004 Posted February 14, 2004 Stepmom fo' sure I find at age 67 (will be 68 in May, God willing) I cry a lot in emotional movies. Guess it's ok since I have happily married, do NOT have to impress anyone,and can let my emotions loose. Ken Bower Veteran Human Being
DaveYo Posted February 15, 2004 Posted February 15, 2004 Men crying??????? Scratching head here over entertainment thing. Did they take some estro before watching or not???? Daveyoti
Guest IT Manager Posted February 15, 2004 Posted February 15, 2004 Stepmom fo' sureI find at age 67 (will be 68 in May, God willing) I cry a lot in emotional movies. Guess it's ok since I have happily married, do NOT have to impress anyone,and can let my emotions loose. Ken Bower Veteran Human Being Hi Ken..often wondered if I would lose the part of me that my wife appreciates and my kids don't understand, in a few years... seems not. Good.
Bluecat Posted February 15, 2004 Posted February 15, 2004 Men crying??????? Scratching head here over entertainment thing. Did they take some estro before watching or not????Daveyoti You are right, Dave. What a bunch of sissies,... Let's go out like real men do. If a fight comes our way, we are ready, we're the MEN. And nobody worries, we use our fists, we use our feet, we fight like men. We never use weapons, we never use the knife that we always carry we us. We do not need it, it is just there for the warm feeling it gives us. Remember ladies, that's what men are all about "All brawn and no brain",...
the gentleman Posted February 15, 2004 Posted February 15, 2004 with laughter = goldmember with sadness = tears of the sun, factual in many regards, except for the people who helped them.
Membrane Posted February 16, 2004 Posted February 16, 2004 Field of Dreams. Reminds me of my dad. <sniff.. sniff>
The Gentleman Scamp Posted February 16, 2004 Posted February 16, 2004 Oh we're on tears of laughter now are we? Hmm, It would have to be Aurthur 2 (on The Rocks) Dudley Moore (God rest his soul) is wonderful. Some of his best lines include... MAN IN CAR: 'You have to be the most annoying man I have ever met'. AURTHUR: (pause) Do I have to? LINDA: (Wiping away tears) 'The doctor said, he said I couldn't have children'. AURTHUR: 'That really sucks Linda, you would have made a great mother.... ...Oh well, at least we don't have to have sex anymore.' This doesn't do it justice, you have to see it.
bartender100 Posted February 16, 2004 Posted February 16, 2004 i watched " the bridges of madison county" on a flight home from thailand once,and cried,just touched a nerve.
Girlfrombar Posted February 17, 2004 Posted February 17, 2004 The bridge of Madison County, not only a good movie, also great soundtrack ever! "Soft winds whisper sweet words to my luv, Soft winds tell him the dream i'm dreaming of He's gone too long, i'm on the blue sea Find him, soft winds and bring him right back to me!" -Dinah Washington sings that. it's oh so jazzzzzy! GFB.
boNita aPPlebuM Posted February 17, 2004 Posted February 17, 2004 I cried watching "the UNDERWORLD" I wanted my $8.00 (tax included) back so bad I was sitting there like "DUH! what the!..."
