What movie or scene from a movie (or show) makes your eyes misty?
The dad doing one last goofy march while his son watches, in Life os beautiful (1997)
The Iron Giant
Ibelin. Saw it in the cinema when it first came out, seemed like everybody in the audience was crying.
(It’s about a kid with a degenerative disease who connected with people through an MMO.)
ANY time any dog dies.
‘Hachi: A Dog’s Tale’ killed me
Grave of fireflies, of course
One of the best films about war, of all times and genres. Incredibly powerful and, yes, quite a tearful experience.
The last part of AI (2001)
The sinking of the Going Merry. Oda made me cry for a boat, and I’m not even joking.
The ending of Watership Down. Can’t even think about without getting misty.
Magnolia by Paul Thomas Anderson. The whole movie is pretty emotional but the scene where Tom Cruise’s character confronts his absentee father on his death bed absolutely destroys me.
One of my all time favorite movies, but I gotta be ready to full on cry if I want to watch it.
“little soldier boy” episode from Avatar: the last Airbender. Every time.
Leaves from the vine…
When Rudy’s dad tears up seeing his son on the field
A dogs purpose
The movie ‘About Time’. The ending tore me up.
First season of After Life by Ricky Gervais.
The scene after where Gervais’ character realizes fully what he has done, especially to himself long term, is soul crushing. The i did the right thing, but for all of the right and wrong reasons look on his face is haunting. I think it is the 2nd episode.
A lot of the episodes open with him watching his wife telling him to enjoy life. Her sitting on the hospital bed, on her final days because of cancer.
I hated gervais before this, i found his comedy delivery and style very grating but after watching this shoe and getting kicked in the guts every couple episodes i gave him another shot and dont mind him so much now. Show is a 10/10 if you want to sob silently with your partner.
