The song Amazing Grace often makes me cry, especially when played on bagpipes.

Steel Magnolias gets me every time. I think A.I. did it to me too.

Too many to list, I'm a sucker for crying. I'll cry in a commercial if it is touching.

The Color Purple. Book mostly, but the movie is great too.
Anne of Green Gables.
Soup by Blind Melon.

Good one. And speaking of Shirley Maclaine, Terms of Endearment is another one that does it to me.

I was watching Persepolis the other day, and I'm pretty sure that would have made me cry if I hadn't been in public.

Films, books and songs don't make me cry.

Damn, I can't find it at any cinemas near me. Is it good?

I thought it was fantastic - quite bleak and refreshingly unsentimental but with a fair smattering of humour too (to make you smile, rather than make you laugh). It was only showing at the independent cinema where I live, so maybe you could look for one of those near you?

I have had a lot of people die in my life, in my hands, nearly so and ... so...
Chick flicks, some war movies, media that touches areas of the sense of loss of loved or highly respected ones. Media that expresses or focuses parental love touch me greatly. For me, once I've seen and studied losses soo, that, losses conjures tender feelings easily.

Book: Where The Red Fern Grows (I forgot who wrote it), Movie: Alphadog( that movie got me mad too.), Songs: Mockingbird by Eminem (reminds me a little of my life), and one other song I can't quite recall.

I'll check the Cornerhouse, the local indie cinema. I think I'll go on my own and dress all dandy and sit at the back and laugh in all the wrong places.

Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, moments of the TV show Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Forrest Gump, Dancer in the Dark, the series finale to Six Feet Under . . . many more that I can't think of. It doesn't take much for a film to make me cry.
