You Cant take it with you.........
Thursday, May 8, 2008 by Vampothika | Discussion: Community
I am a huge b&w movie fan.......and am always scouring ebay for an oldie i dont have.......well, today I finally recieved 'Frank Capra's : You Cant take it with you on dvd.
At the end this movie had me crying with happiness........but capra's stories have a way of doing that to me, and it was a truly beautiful and moving story.
What about you? Have you watched a movie that moved you so much that you cried tears of happiness?
Its a wonderful life is another one that does that too me (another capra)

Interesting thread.
Well, the first time I saw Ingmar Bergman's The Seventh Seal, probably, because of the knight's "victory." The first time I saw Robert Zemeckis's film version of Sagan's Contact, because it was a flawed but still pretty clever interpretation of one of Carl Sagan's best books.
There are probably quite a few, but that's all I can think of offhand. . .

Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King.
Towards the end when the King says to the 4 Hobbits, " You bow to no one". Gets me every time.

Uhm. Only reason I quoted that movie and the one before it is because, as I said, they are great movies.
I wasn't saying anything about you crying at it. Just saying I never have cried at a movie.
Haven't cried at anything in a lot of years for that matter. No longer able to. Still debate sometimes whether that is good or bad.

I cry at the drop of a hat. It does not even have to be a really good movie. If someone in a movie cries tears of joy or sadness, I cry. I even cry when I see a Hallmark commercial.

Ok like I said above I've never cried at a movie.
But reading elvees list made me think of one movie, or rather a part of a movie, that did get me emotional.
City of Angels
I was ecstatic over the way it ended 
Even though it is an older movie I won't say here how it ended in case anyone has never seen it but wants to.
The reality of the ending made me very happy though
