OK, here's some poetry that had me tear up. (Name the movie?)

"Funeral Blues" by W.H. Auden

Stop all the clocks, cut off the telephone
Prevent the dog from barking with a juicy bone.
Silence the pianos and with muffled drum,
Bring out the coffin...let the mourners come.

Let aeroplanes circle, moaning overhead,
Scribbling on the sky the message: He is Dead.
Put crepe bows 'round the necks of public doves,
Let traffic policemen wear black, cotton gloves.

He was my North, my South, my East, my West.
My working week and my Sunday rest.
My noon, my midnight, my talk, my song,
I thought love would last forever: I was wrong.

The stars are not wanted now, put out every one.
Pack up the moon and dismantle the sun.
Pour out the ocean and sweep up the wood,
For nothing now can ever come to any good.

1. Four Weddings and a Funeral.

Great scene (and I love Auden.) I wish we saw more of the actor. I'll think of his name in a second. (John Hannah)

2. Yup. That's one of my "re-viewable" movies.

John Hannah did an absolutely extraordinary job with that eulogy. It was a "wow" moment, especially after we in the audience also fell in love with his lover, Garreth.

3. Nice

Very nice poem. I hope someday I can find someone who cares about me that much. But I find it kinda disturbing that the poem can be sung to the beat of Eamon's "Don't Want You Back".

4. Makes me cry every time

That funeral scene in "Four Weddings and a Funeral" makes me cry every time.

I love that movie.
