which of the following made you cry?

[zzxxee]

1.........film performance by which actor/actress and in what film?
2..... song title and which artist/group?
3....life experience?

[andy-hughes]

Mine too.

I got pretty freaked during the 'Russian Roulette' sequence, when the Viet Cong officer kept shouting 'Mau ...Mau ...' - even more when a Vietnamese colleague advised me that the word means 'blood'.

[ummmm]

Ahhhh....I didn't know that. I remember watching it when I was quite young and then spending years trying to find the film where they play Russian Roulette. I've loved Robert DeNiro ever since.

I watched The Killing fields about the same time and remember really liking that. I haven't seen it since so not sure if it's as good as I remember.

[Bbbananas]

Loved the Deer Hunter too... a very powerful film which never loses its impact.

And I remember Cars' 'Drive' for the same reasons as you andy.

[zzxxee]

yes drive the cars !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! they used it alot during live aid showing clips of the ethiopia famine and it always played as a backing track

Another song that gets me is tasmin archer "IN YOUR CARE" makes me weep as its about child abuse

[ponjee]

the green mile. the man with the things flying out of his mouth.
the rest nothing

[TTG]

1 When Chris Reeve left the past for the future at the end of "Somewhere in Time."
2."Thankyou" by Led Zeppelin.
3. When the daughter of a friend of the family left for the States after visiting us in the UK. We were both in our teens. I fell madly in love with her and the feeling lasted for years. It wasn't a nice feeling at all.

[milly143]

1. The end of Moulin Rouge where Satine dies. I've watched 10000 times and still cry (I know it's cheesy).
2. Fields of Gold by Eva Cassidy - in fact just singing it in my head now is making me well up.
3. Too many to mention.

[jackie76]

1) Celie being reunited with her sister in 'The Color Purple'
2) Make You Feel My Love by Adele
3) My boyf leaving for the US

[China Doll]

Gweneth Paltro as Emma... A traversty of bad casting.

The murder of the the song halluia (sp) by that x factor/pop idol reject... whatever she was.

Sitting through Bridget Jones Diary because my baby sister wanted me to watch it as she somehow thought it would be my cup of tea.

[Jemisa]

1 - Bambi.
2 - Without You, by Nillson,
3 - Told I had Bowel Cancer.

[zzxxee]

[andy-hughes]

China - far be it from me to be a pedant (as if!) but Alexandra Burke actually won X-Factor, so cannot be considered a reject.

That said, her cover of 'Hallelujah' is one of the most exerable sounds I have ever heard - and i speak as a fan of her pop songs.

Some songs should never be covered - unless your name is Jeff Buckley.

[zzxxee]

another film that makes me cry is a really old silent film called " broken blossoms" 1919 staring lillian gish google it" lillian gish the smile" when her abusive dad asks her to put a smile on her face and she forces it with her fingers a powerful piece of film no words needed !!!!

[mccfluff]

2. You'll Never Walk Alone.....reminds me of my Dad's last ime at Anfield with me.
3. The birth of my daughter,
