It's seeing people with nothing in their lives, no hope, no chance, nothing.
People in war-struck parts of Africa, women holding pot bellied children who you know will be dead only days after the cameras leave. There's nothing for them and they know it.
Fills me up every time.

I only ever cried to Bambi when he realises his mum has been burned to death in the forest fire ...
Was that the director's cut?
My 4-year-old got Puff the Magic Dragon for her birthday yesterday, and decided to sing it. Never realised it was so depressing at the end, though she is totally oblivious.
Having kids definitely does it - never used to be all that fussed about the news. I mean, I cared, I was angry about things, but it never emotionally affected me. Now can hardly bear to read any stories about kids especially.
I cried in Monsters Inc. when Boo thought she'd never see "Kitty" again.
I think there's something worng with me...
One born every minute.....gets me every time!

It's the hunter that dies in the forest fire. Coolhandluke cried when the dude who murdered Bambi's mum died! That's just sick.
I read that in the original cut of the film there's a lingering closeup on bambi's mum's corpse. That would have probably made me top myself.

A bit of personal exposure makes it fairly poignant....
