Also, <I>Dancer in the Dark</I>, that moment in <I>Requiem for a Dream</I> where Sara's friends are sitting at the bus stop gets me every time too. Also, <I>The Elephant Man</I>. I've cried plenty of times at movies that I've never rewatched so I can't say whether I'd cry again at them (most recently would be <I>Bridge to Terabithia</I>). I well up plenty of times though. Oddest was, perhaps, the end of <I>Monster</I>.<BR/><BR/>I must say, the thing that gets me crying more than anything isn't just something sad happening, but the <I>grieving</I> by other people.
