Which "Feel Good Movie" gets you emotional?

[diabeticman]

Yes, this is another post inspired by my wife. This time she got a call from her mom telling my wife that one of my wife's favorite movies of all time -- Auntie Mame (Rosalind Russell) She said even though the movie ends on a happy note she still cries every time she sees it. I have no clue why and I just wonder do other people out there have a movie that gets them emotional like my wife does with Auntie Mame?

[First Speaker]

1. Who Framed Roger Rabbit

...when I see that Jessica Rabbit loves Roger for himself...it always makes me cry...

[Paulie]

2. The end of Random Harvest

Every time.

[sarge43]

3. Babe.

"That will do, Pig. That will do." gets me every time.

4. "Fairly Large Juggz #9".

5. Middle (may I call you Middle?) what scene in particular sticks out?

ETA - sounds like one I may be interested in

[MiddleFingerMom]

19. Both of them.

[Locut0s]

16. Only "Fairly" large? Haha LOL...

[pink-o]

6. Cinema Paradiso.

Can't watch the last scene without bawling my eyes out. Course, I'm a HUGE Italophile, and Sicily is a little gem of a place buried under mob myths, so this film is a great capture of its culture. Just have at least one box of Kleenex at hand!

7. Rudy

I cry like a baby at the end every time.

It's on now....

[Shrek]

8. Rain Man

Driving Miss Daisy

The Shawshank Redemption

The King's Speech

[In_The_Wind]

9. Dying Young

[LoveMyCali]

10. Is Field of Dreams considered a feel good movie

because I always cry even though I've seen it a thousand times. Oh and Homeward Bound: The Amazing Journey makes me sob when the dog says "my boy, my boy, my favorite boy." (I actually almost cried just thinking about it)

[azurnoir]

11. The Shawshank Redemption

gets me every time

[Arugula Latte]

22. Me too. Especially that last scene on the beach when the camera pulls away.

Makes me tear up just thinking about it.

[azurnoir]

23. That is a beautiful scene

but for me it's when Red gets on the bus "I hope"

[Arugula Latte]

24. Yes. I just rewatched the last couple minutes.

It goes from the cruddy apartment to the bus to the beach -- "I hope" as the camera flies over the blue Pacific.

[azurnoir]

25. Thank you

really it's all the same scene too

[AsahinaKimi]

12. The Little Mermaid..

[lunatica]

13. ET

You cry and you laugh and at the end you cry harder and feel great!

[Bluzmann57]

14. Mask

I'm not sure if it qualifies as a "feel good" movie, but dammit, I cry each and every time I see it. Still.

[mythology]

15. Among other movies

It's a Wonderful Life, Shawshank Redemption and Mr. Smith Goes to Washington.

I don't know if Schindler's List counts, but that always gets me too.

[ashling]

17. A bunch ... starting with The Grapes of Wrath

when Casey is asked to say words over Grandpa's grave:

If I was to pray, I wouldn't pray for just an old man that's dead - because he's alright.
If I was to pray I'd pray for them that's alive
and don't know which way to turn.

also,

The Great Debaters

Big Fish

[GReedDiamond]

18. Dr. Strangelove...

...just kidding.

I really meant to say, "Mr. Holland's Opus."

Sorry, I know, that's pretty lame.

[tavernier]

20. Truly Madly Deeply

Box of tissues, easy

[Amerigo Vespucci]

21. Planes Trains & Automobiles

The "Odd Couple" pairing of Steve Martin and John Candy really paid off on that one. Best Thanksgiving movie EVER.
