There's not a lot that could get my ducts flowing, well I thought, not a lot.
I was in The States, about a ten days or so, after the twin towers attrocity.
The news channel: News10, came on in the bar we were in, and I remember the
newsreader saying, "So much love, from one tiny Island," he meant the UK, and
what he was refering to, was the Queen's request to have the palace guard play
The Star Spangled Banner. Everyone in that bar stood to rigid attention,
brought the right hand across the chest, onto the heart, and unashamedly wept.
Don't know what ti was that made me do the same, but I didn't even care that my
mascara was ruined. And if you have never seen it................................................

I've come upstairs having just seen "To Kill A Mocking Bird" for the first time.

How appropriate that there was TOTAL uncontrollable blubbing on my behalf. The trigger was when proceedings in the courtroom had finished and the black Reverend says: " Jean Louise. Jean Louise, stand up. Your father's passing."

[
Never seen City Lights before but that had me welling up.

YouTube - Love Me If You Dare / Jeux d'enfants - the dare of dares
From love me if you dare.

From Legand of the Falls
YouTube - Legends of the Fall- Tristans revenge for Sam
Both these Films make me weep.
The line if only angels could prevail we'd be the way we were from sweeny todd makes me cry.
And when people pray for salvation in any film or documentary because as an athist i know it's not coming.

I used to be completely unaffected by stuff but now I cry at anything! I watched 'P.S I love you' on Monday and cried almost the whole way through!

The song "Lady Grinning Soul" by Bowie gets me welled up within the first 3 seconds. It's such a beautiful song.

Oh and the film "The Color Purple" Is just breathtaking, if you haven't seen it, please please do. I guarantee you'll be swept away.

I never used to cry at films or songs or anything (other than not getting my own way!!) Three children later, I cry at absolutely anything, no I don't cry, I completely fall to pieces and blubber!!! I even cried when Nana Moon died on Eastenders - now that's sad!!!!

I've got some competition for you in the sadness stakes Annie - a few years ago on Neighbours when Toadie came out of his coma and didn't recongise his fiancee - that set me off! To be fair, I had been going through a rough patch at the time - sometimes you just need a handy trigger for the cry you need anyway, and something soppy on TV is the perfect excuse ...
