  - A film, also called a movie or motion picture, is a series of still images on a strip of plastic which, when run through a projector and shown on a screen, creates the illusion of moving images. A film is created by photographing actual scenes with a motion picture camera; by photographing drawings or miniature models using traditional animation techniques; by means of CGI and computer animation; or by a combination of some or all of these techniques and other visual effects. The process of filmmaking is both an art and an industry.

You've got a long way to go if that's the most emotional scene in the Sopranos for you!

Green Mile & Man on Fire have made me cry before.

Can't be bothered to do the exact time link thing, but from 4:50 onwards.

It is not a film, but yes, I did have a few tears

It was the chance of it all as well as the father saving his son etc

I cry during every film standard, I'm a big melt.

Worst crying film I watched recently though was Lars and the Real Girl
still don't fancy Ryan Gosling though. Ha! In your face!

Nothing genuinely moving has induced tears from me

but if some dispensable afterthought of a character sacrifices themselves while the score soars in Battle: Los Angeles or some other shite, I'm a wreck.

Particular films that do that to me (and I doubt if i can stop it)

Grave of the fireflies
and
Oh what a lovely war
(the bit at the end....when the soldier lies down in the grass with his mates and then the the family are picnicking on that hill and the little girl asks 'what did daddy do in the war' and the camera pans back to show the enormity of the cemetary giving the answer of "He Died"

Not cried. Not yet, although

I think I'm more susceptible to have a quiet 'something-in-my-eye' moment as I get older. I'll keep you updated

Have you just had tear ducts installed or something?

Have you just hatched from a chrysalis?

Cried for the first time at a film?

Are you 6?

You're lying right?

oh, lots

Dancer in the Dark, for example. but then I realised in retrospect that the ending was completely absurd, and that Lars von Trier was probably just some archly manipulative prick gouging for my tears and stubbed-out nerve endings.

The bit in Short Circuit 2 when Johnny 5 goes to save Ben even though he's had the shit kicked out of him

I didn't actually cry because I'm emotionally crippled butit gets me pretty fucking close.

Never cried at a film because I'm nails

but I came close with the ending of Dead Poet Society.

I cry at almost every film, most TV shows and some adverts.

The last film I cried at in the cinema was Les Miserables. I cried so much that the person next to me, who I didn't know, told me to calm down.

I also cried very much at The Hobbit. It was emotional.

- I wept during The Hobbit
  
  But for entirely different reasons.

Great, great films reduce me to tears

Doesn't matter if they're sad or not, a good film has the ability to make me cry.

I only ever cry at really happy stuff in films.

Case in point: Never cry at the beginning of Up, but always cry at that bit on the cliff where he finds the extra message from his dead wife.
