tzikeh: (hamlet tennant not king)

Yesterday I asked for any magical realism movies you guys could think of (it occurs to me, belatedly, that perhaps I should have included a few main traits in order to help define it). You can still comment, so if you have some that aren't already there, please do.

Today - movies that make you cry! The crying can be because you're sad, happy, angry, or just overawed by the power of motion pictures themselves (I love when that happens). Also, the crying doesn't necessarily have to happen at the end; I cried on and off during WALL-E and I'll probably do the same when I see it again. *snf*

A few of mine (and let's get some of the more obvious out of the way early): Schindler's List, The Color Purple, E.T. (fuck you, Steven Spielberg).

Also The Purple Rose of Cairo, The Shawshank Redemption, Cinema Paradiso (if you don't cry at that final scene you are *dead* inside), Wings of Desire, Remains of the Day.

GO! Please list as many as you like, and maybe add a few words about why they make you cry.
