I remember watching it over at a friends. I was around 8 and was very excited, as the kid had a video recorder - which was some futuristic shit, I can tell ya. there were maybe 8-10 kids of different ages, but I was definitely the youngest. it was a proper event. all the tables and shit were moved out of the room and chairs were set up - like a little cinema. all the mums were in the kitchen smoking fags and gossiping like cunts.

cried my fucking eyes out pretty much throughout the whole thing…and of course, got mercilessly ridiculed for the next 3-4 years for being such a baby. standard

great movie though

For various reasons I won’t core the class with, the answer is absolutely everything and anything. I am a bit of a big girl’s blouse at the moment.

Sad and/or happy things in films. The moment when my cat curls up on my lap looking content in the evening, that sodding dog adoption advert on the TV…I could go on.

oh jesus actually

Fred Rodgers just seems like the most wonderful person. Did you ever see his appearance before the Senate?

And this is lovely:

loads of things really

Very little as I’m generally an emotionless husk, but the end of Patriots Day got me, as did that John Cena video… @anon5266188 knows the one I mean.

This was probably the last film I cried at and it was difficult to keep it together at the end in the cinema.

Other than that and the odd song, just the circuitousness of being really, y’know

Large groups singing in unison.
Amazing achievements of humankind.
Tiny versions of toiletries.

That bit in Cinema Paradiso makes me cry every.single.time

Policemen lining up in a guard of honour to salute a dog on its way into the vet for the last time. Hes got terminal cancer and is in to get put down after a lifetime of loyal service.

That photo of Bradley Lowery asleep cuddled up to Jermain Defoe. Such an awesome little hero & this amazing bond between them somehow made it even more poignant.

Man, even just thinking about it now…

Will pretty much cry at anything.

But in particular:

  • sad stories on the news of young children being mistreated/killed
  • stories of people’s fight against cancer
  • thinking about the prospect of my parents dying

So much yes.

Have sworn that i will never ever watch this film with anyone as it reduces me to a wreck like nothing else.

Nearly lost it at a Facebook video the other week of a little girl finding a kitten in her room and tearfully asking her ma (who was filming) if she could keep it. Genuinely don’t know what’s wrong with me. Is this something to do with age?
