[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Field of Dreams -- the last scenes, when Kevin Costner and his father "have a catch."  Saw it when it first came out, at the Uptown, with my parents when they were visiting.
                           I was sobbing, my Dad was sniffling, and my Mom said, "you know, that wasn't just about baseball...."   No kidding.  Can't believe I remember this.

Mississippi Masala -- the last scenes, when the father returns to Uganda, especially the music in the closing market scene.  Gets me because his feelings are so raw and exposed, but warm and fulfilling

It's a Wonderful Life -- love it.

On the tear jerker side, Sophie's Choice.    And there was a recent concentration camp film with the camp commander's son befriending a prisoner boy -- I can't recall the name.   It wrenched my guts out, and when I came upon my husband starting to watch it a few days later, I begged him to turn it off.

[b]The boy in the striped pajamas,  it's the same boy -the commander's son- in that movie as in Hugo, which also made me cry when he cries about how alone he is and how he is missing his dad!!![/b][/quote]

I won't watch that movie.  I used to work in a bookstore, and we'd get advance copies of things in the break room so we could opine on new books.  There I am, on my break, heavily pregnant and I pick up this book with stripes on the cover.

I was a wreck for the rest of the day.  [/quote]
