The worst scene in a movie that just tears me up... |
|
The scene in Return to Snowy River, when Kip is killed. He is such a great horse to be shot down like that. I still get tears when I watch it.

I've never seen it, but I always get sad when animals die in movies.
Are you watching that on TV right now? I was scrolling through TV guide and noticed it was on.

15. Oh god that was horrible. |
|
I didn't have kids when it came out and I was still traumatized by that. Now I can't imagine watching that scene.

5. With me "We Were Soldiers" |
|
My father was in Vietnam, and in the past 12 years has come to grips with his experience over there. The one movie that we watch that closely comes to his experience over there was "We Were Soldiers." It is when they are all getting picked up after the massacare. When Mel's character thinking by himself and crying over his fallen soldiers and tells the reporter to tell the truth on how his men died. I just loose it because my father was a wounded in a friendly fire incident. He is a disabled veteran because of it. However in that movie, it shows exactly how miscalculations happen in when directing in the air fire. That part gets me also, however, his compation for his men, as another man, not just a "Army Major" is.

I love the horses. I have an Aussie saddle and I love it. It makes that kind of riding easier.
I went on a Man From Snowy River ride once. Never again, I could not walk for a couple of days without wincing and I ride a lot. We ended the ride with a fly over the interstate and a gallop thru downtown, small town in Montana. We sang the Magnificent 7 and flew through town.
I love these movies if only to watch the horses and the riding.

titled "Alex, Portrait of a Child". It was a true story of the young daughter of a sports writer (played by Craig T. Nelson), who died of cystic fibrosis. At the end of the movie when the little girl is dying, her parents are sitting on the bed with her. The litte girl sits up in bed and looks off and says, "but which way do I go"? She then falls back into her parents arms and has died. The first time I saw this movie a cried at this ending. Six months later, when it was on again in rerun, I watched it again thinking I could handle the end because I had already seen it. But, when the end of the movie came, I broke down in tears and cried even more than I did the first time I saw it. I don't think I could handle seeing it again.:cry:

11. One I can not watch at all is My Life. |
|
Michael Keeton plays a man with an inoperatable brain tumor. His wife is pregnant with their first child, and he starts making videos for the child since he will die before it is born.
I had to leave the room the first time I watched. It dredged up to many memories from when I was injured, and dying. I cried for an hour. I was so broken up.

16. Another football movie -- "Something for Joey" |
|
One of the saddest movies I have ever seen. The movie is about John Cappaletti and his little brother, Joey. Joey has cancer, if I remember correctly. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0076738/

and the scene where Tony Crutis tells him he loves him as a brother just before Spartacus kills him to to take his place and save him the slow death of crucifiction.
And now with the the world the way it is the very last scene where his wife shows Spartacus that his dream has been realized " a son, born free "
How long it will be before that can happen for any of us slaves again.

20. When Johnny dies in the Outsiders. |
|
I read the book so many times...saw the movie several times...and each time, somehow I kept hoping Johnny wouldn't die.
I get sad when Ruth dies in Fried Green Tomatoes too.
