    mrsconsequence is an absolute rock when watching films, closest i’ve seen her come to crying was in toy story 3… what scenes cause you to end up with some dust in your eye? 🙂

    toy story 3 for me every time – once when they nearly get incinerated and again at the end.

    LOTR when they light the beacons of Gondor to summon aid.

    and

    never mind, I’m just a big softy.

    The last scene of Withnail makes me cry. I think its because the whole film is so laugh-out-loud funny, that you don’t expect it to finish on such a powerful and emotional note.

    I think I watched it a few times before i really ‘got’ the final scene

    The opening sequence of Up, another Pixar classic.
    Also the bit in Edward Scissorhands when they banish him from the street.

    ps. I also cried once at an episode of Fresh Prince of Bel Air so I may be slightly over-sensitive.

    Anything with Herbie in it; a VW Beetle with a mind of its own is a scary concept…

    E.T. when he’s all sick and white and looking likely to croak. Then the final scene when he buggers off.

    Gets me every time.

    The missus had never seen E.T. until a few years back when I played it to her for the first time and I knew those scenes were coming up I tried to man up but couldn’t – she didn’t get it. I think she’s thought less of me ever since.

    + 1 for Up, Toy story 3 and Marley & me. The scene in Green mile where they let Coffey watch the Fred Astaire film gets me every time as well. Basically, I’m a great big soft lass. 😀

    toy story 3 for me every time – once when they nearly get incinerated and again at the end.

    Gets me every time too.

    The end of Armageddon when Big Bruce rides the lightning has me welling up also.

    The first film I remember giving me a lump in the throat was a couple of scenes in Planes, Trains & Automobiles with Steve Martin & John Candy…

    The last scenes in ‘Dancer in the Dark’ (the one with Bjork in it).

    No I am not usually into watching stuff like that. But it did make me bawl my eyes out.

    Marley and Me was a bloody awful film but you can’t help but cry at the end.

    Field of Dreams always gets me, once when the Doc crosses off the pitch and then can’t go back and again at the end when Costner plays catch with his dad.

    end of field of dreams

    Up, Marley and Me, The Town… lot’s of others, I’m an emotionally repressed big softie, any movie that has ‘father issues’ of some sort tends to break my heart also…

    The end of Stand By Me when you hear what happened to River Phoenix’s character

    In one of the Pink Panther films, Dreyfuss is mental and is holed up in Switzerland with some sort of Death Ray thing. Clouseau, master of disguise, disguises himself as a dentist to deal with the evil mentalist’s toothache and capture him. Something goes wrong with a bottle of laughing gas. At that point tears are streaming out my eyes and it all gets a bit hazy.

    “The Veteran’s words at the end of Band of Brothers is powerful. “

    That reminds me, the end of Saving Private Ryan when the Old Man Ryan is in the cemetery and says to his wife ‘Tell me i’m a good man…’

    I’m in bits at this point every time.

    I think i cry at too many films actually thinking about it…..

    i’ve been caught out by adverts for cancer charities, tv shows and most films that even a hormonal teenage girl going through a messy break up from her first love wouldn’t cry at.

    means we release that emotion thus making us more awesome when real life gets tricky 😀

    The last scene in The Notebook got me. The Mrs wanted to watch it and I only agreed to it because of Rachel McAdams but now i’ll never watch it again because of the last scene.

    The ending of the Shawshank redemption when they are reunited.

    But also about 53 minutes into the crying game, brings a wee tear to my eyes at the thought.

    I always know when Mrs Mitch (and before anyone accuses me of gross sexism, I’ve checked and believe this is the currently accepted ‘PC’ term) has an egg on the way, due to the amount of tears shed at seemingly innocuous adverts on the telly. I believe I’ve caught her blubbering at one of them injury lawyers for you adverts – class! 😀
