I used to never cry during movies. I was tough. Then I watched an edited version of "The Green Mile" on TV, and I cried, and ever since then, I've been a mess.
I cried at the end of "The Return of the King," "Casablanca," "Singin' in the Rain" (call me a dork but the famous scene is a great scene in movie history and one of my favorite movie moments, so it makes me emotional), "Roman Holiday," "Pride and Prejudice" (because it's my favorite movie and it's so sweet), and "A Walk to Remember." I also cry during "White Christmas" at the part when they put on the show for the General, and in lots of places during "It's a Wonderful Life." This might sound ridiculous, but I get teary-eyed at the end of "Monsters, Inc." and when Linus is reciting the Christmas story in "A Charlie Brown Christmas."
I also cried during both Narnia movies because I was so happy to see my favorite books on the screen, and because some parts are sad. And there are many more movies that have made me cry.
As for TV shows, I cry in the "I Love Lucy" episode called "Lucy is Enceinte" when Lucy tells Ricky she's pregnant. I also cry at the final kiss in the last Lucy-Desi Comedy Hour, "Lucy Meets the Moustache," because it was the last moment of my favorite TV show and it represents the end of Lucy and Desi's marriage. I also cry during a few episodes of "Full House," like the time when Jesse is going to move out after getting married.
As for books, I cried when I read "Little Women," most of the Narnia books at one point or another, "Beauty," and at quite a few parts of "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows", especially when some of my favorite characters died.
OK, I am soft in the head, but the national anthem of the USA makes me cry. Which is really bad at ball games!!! I just think about those embattled patriots watching the rockets red glare and trying to see their flag ... I am tearing up thinking about it right now!
Every year on the 4th of July, we go to see fireworks at a big church in town. Right before they start setting them off, they play Ray Charles singing "America the Beautiful" over the loudspeakers, and that always makes me nearly cry. It makes me feel very patriotic.
Relient K's song "Deathbed" makes me emotional, too. Especially at the end when Jon Foreman sings the part of Jesus. I love that.
I sound like an emotional wreck.
