13 Movies Guaranteed to Make You Cry

When was the last time you watched a good weepy?

Do you know that having a really good cry is actually good for your health? We are the only animals who cry emotional tears so let’s not waste that! We all know that generally women cry far more often than men so why should they miss out on the health benefits of crying?

If you are looking for some really good blubber inducing movies to help level the score then here are a few suggestions guaranteed to leave no eye dry for men and women alike (all of them are highly recommended by yours truly!)

So girls, grab your guy, a box of tissues (or two!) and a copy of one of these movies to have yourselves a good sob fest.

Schindler’s List

The Green Mile

Field Of Dreams

The Notebook

Marley and Me

Saving Private Ryan

The Pursuit of Happyness

Seven Pounds

The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas

Life Is Beautiful

Ghost

What Dreams May Come

Life as a House

Titanic (just for Dehan!)

If you have a favourite weepy movie that I have left off the list – feel free to leave a comment below.

OK, so now you are all cried out with sadness, perhaps you’d like to know what movies will make you cry with happiness – you can find a list of recommended movies here because laughter really is the best medicine!

    What about ‘life is beautiful’?

    Yep, it’s already on the list. A fantastic film and certainly deserving of all the awards it won.

    I cry at the end of The Green Mile EVERY time I watch it, literally. I watched it for the first time when I was about four years old and I just. I don’t know. It hits home.

    The only film that has ever made me cry was Into The Wild

    I’ve only seen the green mile and titanic and I didn’t cry. The green mile is kind of sad, but not sad enough. :)

    I <3 The Notebook!!!

  15. Posted November 5, 2011 at 10:40 pm

    There are a few I have not seen from the list. But I agree with the ones I have seen.

    Thanks Dazz for putting Titanic for me…

  17. Posted December 20, 2011 at 2:17 pm

    What Dreams May Come is my number one movie of all time!

  18. Posted January 16, 2012 at 7:28 am

    Wow! An incredible list! I also love The Bridges of Madison County, Somewhere In Time, Beaches, Message In A Bottle, Autumn In New York and numerous other movies to mention :)

    Have seen all but two of these, but not made me cry – maybe im strange?

    The Green Mile makes me cry. Haven’t watched most of these. Think I’ll watch these.
