Pass the Tissues...


Entertainment Weekly has an online article about movies that make men cry. They based it off an MSNBC article about the same thing. They got a lot right! Thanks to YouTube I found a lot of them online! So I get to cry all over again. I agree with many such as: Shawshank Redemption, Good Will Hunting (if you need a laugh about now, Family Guy parodied this scene), and Hoosiers.

I love some of EW's quotes:
"I've long said that I can't be friends with someone that doesn't cry at the end of Field of Dreams. The best thing about that movie is that, by and large, women don't ''get'' it. It's a movie about fathers and sons, for fathers and sons."

"I am secure enough to admit that the going-away party scene from Snoopy Come Home never fails to put my tear ducts in overdrive."

MSNBC's article got a few more I have to agree with! Movies like: Dead Poet's Society, Gladiator, and of course, my ALL TIME favorite teary ending to a movie:

RUDY, RUDY, RUDY! Watch this and cry and then just ask the person next to you: "WHO'S THE WILDMAN NOW!??!" (As a bonus, here's a clip of the ACTUAL game that "Rudy" played in. He's in on the sack towards the end of the clip.)


I think they missed a few such as Mr. Holland's Opus and Glory.


Do any of these make your man-cry list? What did they miss?
