i don't know why, but that movie "Pollyanna" always makes me cry:crying2:

and laugh too :biggrin:

but the very end, when the townspeople all show up at her doorstep to give her a little bit of "gladness", well i just lose it! :crying2:

and that hayley mills is so freakin cute, i love her:)


i could watch this movie a hundred times and never get sick of it..... but i bet most of you have never even heard of it! (it's a girly flick) :biggrin:



and speaking of old movies, can you believe i have never seen "It's a Wonderful Life"!! :uhoh: (i've seen like the first 8 minutes of it or so, but that's it!)

cyn, I have seen Pollyanna. When I was a kid, my sister used to watch all of her movies all the time... Especially Trouble With Angels.

I have also never seen It's A Wonderful Life. I can't stand Jimmy Stewart, therefore, I have never had a desire to watch it.

As for movies which i have seen hundreds of times which still make me cry, that would easily be Field of Dreams (which I FINALLY bought last night.) No matter how many times I watch it, it makes me cry. That means that tomorrow, Lori will probably see me cry for the first time ever.

I can't say that any movie ever made me cry, but several make me laugh out loud every time I see them (which is not very often).

These would include...Raising Arizona, Caddyshack, and the Blues Brothers

I am a very emotional person :( I hate it lol. Especially stories on things that really did happen. Lion King made me cry when I was little in school lol.

I think a movie that really made me laugh was Mr. Bean (I love that guy). Secret Garden was a very good movie too (one of my favs). There just soo many movies and a lot of them I don't mind seeing over and over again :)

Gone With The Wind :crying2: :crying2: :crying2:

No matter how many times I see it I cry hysterically in a whole bunch of places.


I recently saw "Fame," which I hadn't seen for a thousand years but had seen a thousand times. I kind of sort of lived that life in high school and college, so that movie always made me cry, largely from all the memories it evoked.


Another movie that I could watch over and over is probably my all time favorite, "Singin' In The Rain." But that was usually does not make me cry.

Some of my favorite movies were made decades before I was born. They really knew how to make movies way back when.


Not like now.....

one of the best movies I have ever seen, which still makes me laugh my head off every time is Arsenic And Old Lace.

I just watched "An Affair To Remember." I've seen bits and pieces, but it's the first time I've watched the whole thing all the way through.
:crying2: :crying2:

I know I could watch it a thousand times, and I'll cry a thousand times. What a beautiful movie.
