Do you cry at sad movies?

[terrya]

Or when you hear a sad song?

I sure do.

Don't be afraid to show your sensitive side.

[shaolinmonkey]

1. I just saw Big Fish...

and cried my eyes out. I'm such a sap.

[BayouBengal07]

5. Me too.

Big Fish was a tear jerker.

I also cried like a baby at Fahrenheit 9/11 when they showed the Iraqi woman crying and cursing America for destroying her house.

[StClone]

22. That is exactly my last Teary theater movie experience

It got me good as it did my 18-year-old daughter. My wife scoffed at us. But good to see there are others. :-)

The movie is a good story -- love Burton's stuff.

[arwalden]

43. Yep... I saw it for the first time last week...

I got teary-eyed as well. I didn't weep and sob... it was just bittersweet.

-- Allen

[SarahB]

2. All the time.

:cry:

[iconoclastic cat]

3. No.

And Mrs. IconCat is convinced that I am a serial killer or something because of this one fact. I contend that I just haven't had enough to drink yet.

[redqueen]

4. Yes

I'm not ashamed. :)

[skypilot]

6. Haven't seen a sad movie in a while but yes....

...I do when I see one. Besides "Terms of Endearment" the one movie that really go the waterworks going for me was "Men Don't Leave" with Jessica Lange. It's strange, the first time I saw the movie it did nothing for me but I caught it on cable a couple years later and it hit me like a ton of bricks. Great movie.

[moof]

7. Sad movies sometimes and all the time since Dec.2000

[Beware the Beast Man]

8. F911- cried at the Spt. 11 piece

When basically all you see is black, with the sound of chaos in the background.

[BayouBengal07]

11. Oh yeah

forgot about that. I cried at that too.

[nuxvomica]

37. I cried during the scenes of the Iraq invasion

It was the women and children screaming in fear and disbelief that got to me. I was pretty cool until then and I didn't even see it coming but suddenly I started bawling like a baby.

[MissMillie]

44. I was sobbing

reliving it like that was very powerful.

[JohnKleeb]

9. of course

More of a mental cry than an actual physical one though. I dont know what it is also but I get really near teary eyed by beautiful music from movies, is that because of association, I also associate with whats going on right now and what not. Like I hear Hymn to the Fallen which is the Main Theme of Saving Private Ryan, and I think about how those old guys die day by day, and how sad it is, and how sad that some never came home, I think too much don't I? I also think what if I could have been on the beaches of normandy. This is just the one song btw.

[shaolinmonkey]

10. I also cried during Edwards' speech at the convention.

Somebody talking about hope? It grabbed something inside that I thought was gone. Thank you, Senator.

[LiberalManiacfromOC]

23. Yeah, so did I

and throughout practically all of F9-11

[TX-RAT]

12. Shenandoah, gets me every time

The church scene at the last.

Old Yeller, Still puts a lump in my throat.

[VOX]

13. I'm a total sap -- pass the Kleenex.

I get teary-eyed all the time during movies. Sometimes even when listening to songs.

:cry:

[Magrittes Pipe]

14. If the movie's really bad, and I realize that I wasted my time and money.

I wept like a baby at "Jury Duty."

[wolfgirl]

15. Like a baby

who just had her teddy bear shredded to pieces in front of her!

When I'm really blue about the world/life/whatever, I find time to watch a good ol' sappy movie just so I can cry & cry & cry!

[NC_Nurse]

16. Always

When I've got PMS, I'll cry at sapppy commercials, the news, songs, you name it!
I blubber all the way through some movies. It's pathetic! :shrug:

[NV Whino]

17. You bet

I now carefully read reviews before I go to a movie. If they indicate a movie is the least bit sad, I wait for the DVD and cry at home. Geez I cry over books, too. Really hard to read when I have to contiually take off my glasses to wipe my eyes. Then the glasses get all spotty.

[Xipe Totec]

18. I Cried During Titus

When the Goth Queen begged Titus to spare her son.

And when Titus begged the stones for mercy.

[Fenris]

19. No. Only women and homosexuals cry at movies.

;)

[JohnKleeb]

20. Fen dont lie

You cried when Kenny actually talked in South Park :), I know I almost did.

[Mara Steele]

21. A RESOUNDING YES!!

Of course I do.

:hi:

[St. Jarvitude]

24. I laugh at movies whose quality is sad

Movies like Titanic. I got my fair share of nasty looks when I laughed at the ridiculous "parting" of the two in the north Atlantic.

Now, sentimental, emotional movies? Well, I won't admit to seeing them, let alone crying at them. :)

[Beaverhausen]

25. Hallmark commercials get to me

I am just a cryer!

[kiahzero]

26. Very rarely

It's more likely for me to cry over a video game - I was replaying Final Fantasy 6 last week, and I just got all teary-eyed during one of the cutscenes.

[Xithras]

27. The floodgates open.

I might have a different concept of sad than you though. I practically blubbered at the end of the Last Samaurai when the imperial soldiers all began kneeling before the bodies of the samaurai. The sadness and nobility of that gesture just got to me in a serious way. The sadness that something great was lost.

[Kire]

28. In America

the ultimte tear jerker

[flamingyouth]

29. I cry at everything

I cry when I'm sad, touched, happy, anything. I'm a big, blubbering oaf, basically. ;)

[Mara Steele]

30. We would get along great together!

Can't wait for lunch!

...It will be soggy before we take a bite!

:pals:

:D

[flamingyouth]

34. Well, hopefully we won't be crying too much!

:D

[Mara Steele]

35. Of course.

....but we may be so moved by the color of the sky and the flavour of the food, we cannot help but weep, out of the sheer joy of existence, n'est-ce'pas?

:D

[Speck Tater]

31. When I was seven years old

I cried at a Shirley Temple movie. Other guys my age thought that meant I was a sissie. Tough, that's the way I am. At age 59 I still cry at sad movies.

[HEyHEY]

32. I cry too easily these days at strange things

I mean , I can go to a car accident and be okay, freaked but okay.

But the song "puff the magic dragon" brings me to tears.

I cry at any sad thing.

Even the other night when my best friend and his littel brother got into a scrap...afterwards - I retreated to the bedroom to cry. But there is some history there.

[ChavezSpeakstheTruth]

33. The only 3 movies I cried at were as follows (and in order)

Fahrenheit 9/11, The Fog of War & The Revolution Will not be Televised












oh - and Dancer in the Dark - DAMN YOU BJORK!!!!!

[liontamer]

36. I never used to till I saw Roman Holiday

It broke the floodgates, now I can cry at a commercial

[DU GrovelBot]

This week is our third quarter 2004 fund drive. Democratic
Underground is a completely independent website. We depend almost entirely
on donations from our members to cover our costs. Thank you so much for
your support.

[terrya]

39. Grovelbot...in my thread! I'm honored.

:-)

[Mara Steele]

40. Now watch this drive!

:D

[Carson]

41. Yep, although

I tend to cry at the parts in movies that others don't. For example, *everyone* was crying at the end of "Braveheart" (the torture and death scene). Not me. I had already cried myself out over the battle scenes.

Any movie with an intense battle always moves me to tears. The first 20 minutes of "Saving Private Ryan" left me a wreck. I suppose it's the whole "man's inhumanity to man" thing.

As for songs, I always tear up when I hear "My Old Kentucky Home". (What can I say, I love my state.)

[arwalden]

42. Movies, Yes. --- TV Commercials, Yes.

Sad songs, NO.

[DemWitch]

45. Sob incoherantly at some...

other times just a puddle or two...

[arwalden]

46. I Also Get Teary-Eyed For CBS News "Fallen Heroes" Segment..

... and when The News Hour shows the photos, names and ages of those troops that have been killed.

Just to see those young faces and to know that they are now gone. Leaving behind parents, spouses, children... all for the benefit and arrogance of the criminal Bush*.

-- Allen

[terrya]

47. I think it's so heartbreaking.

It's so...fucking senseless, isn't it? Young lives...gone. Families devastated over their loved ones killed. Just for the whims of an immoral President.

[Kire]

48. Garden State

I just came back from Garden State. I couldn't stop crying throughout the whole movie. It's still in the theaters. Check it out!

[Rhiannon12866]

49. Not usually

But those #$!%^$# Hallmark commercials always get to me.:cry:

[Placebo]

50. Last Movie I Cried At Was "FAHRENHEIT 9/11"

when the mother who lost her son was reading the last letter she recieved from him.

thank hay-zeus for darkened theatres! you can really let yourself go lol

[Misunderestimator]

51. When I'm experiencing PMS, I do...

The only time I cried in a theater was in "Philadelphia" during the scene where Tom Hanks is walking around his apartment rolling his IV unit with him, listening to Maria Callas singing "La Mamma Morta"... AND a few times during "Schindler's List."

Oh... and when I was a kid, I cried during "Love Story" and "Romeo and Juliet."

Oh heck... maybe I do cry during movies now that I think of it... sad ones anyway.
