Tearjerkers
Yes, sometimes I want to cry. And, it is unlikely that it will happen due to events in my life because I have it pretty good. Other than during the occasional funeral, I'm more prone to fits of rage or giving the silent treatment than shedding a tear when expressing extreme emotion.
But, I do love the catharsis of a good, wet weep. Last weekend, I watched "The Barbarian Invasions (Les Invasions Barbares)," a touching Canadian film dealing with a dying family member. So, I decided to start a list of the movies that brought me to tears, at least the ones that I can remember.
