No, you're not the only one.
I thought that movie was awful!

My list would include and some aren't girly movies.
"The Green Mile"
"Million Dollar Baby"
"Monster"..I know, but I couldn't help myself!
"The Lion King"
"Legends Of The Fall"...in the end when Brad Pitt turns to Aiden Quinn and says...I'm sure this isn't word for word..."I'd like you to look after my Children" and Aiden Quinn says "Brother, it would be an honor"...that gets me every single time.
"Ghost" and not when he dies in the beginning, but when his ghost leaves.

You and me both. We ought to share a sofa and a box of tissues! I've watched that film times, know just about the entire script and still cry
. I was watching it the other night and can think of about 4 separate points (including the walking up the path at the end and Meg Ryan saying that she hoped it would be him) where I ended up in tears.

I rarely cry at sappy movies. I'm just not a crier. But one movie I did cry, and through almost the whole thing, was Eight Below. I was a bawling baby during that movie.

I didn't cry during Titanic either. Everyone who saw it before me said that you would definitely cry. And I definitely didn't.

I always cry
Movies and tv make me cry. The latest movie that made me cry was Definitely, Maybe. Josh was here and we watched it together and he was leaving the next morning...so I dissolved into an emotional wreck right at the end.

Well I dont really cry but the first time I watched
Jane Eyre (the Masterpiece Theatre version with Toby Stephens)
I sniffled a bit. (BTW, fantastic movie!)
And I really cried when I watched A Room With A View (again the MT version, tragic ending, dont watch it)

I completely agree with what has been said about the Green Mile. I cry at several parts in the movie, and several parts in the book. Awful. Mesmerizing.
Forrest Gump still gets me, especially when his momma is dying, and when he is talking to Jenny's grave
2 that I havn't seen mentioned here that are absolutely amazing movies
The Bridges of Madison County
and
The Spitfire Grill
I need a box of kleenex at hand EVERY time I watch one of those 4 movies (and I keep watching, theyre just so good)

Old Yeller is also on the list of movies I can't watch

Titanic is very sad, but I can't see why my sister had to watch it like 5 times. I knew what would happen before it started and still cried at the end...

Romeo and Juliet makes me cry, so does Hamlet
When I went to see Titanic I forgot to bring Kleenex and I cried so hard snot was running down my face. How humiliating.

First ones that come to mind...

When Harry Met Sally
Pretty Woman
Gone With The Wind
Bambi (at the end, not when mom dies)
Beauty and the Beast
Anything Disney (especially with animals)

The Last Unicorn
Titanic

Heck, I cry almost every episode of "Ghost Whisper" on TV. Crying is good for the soul.

I'm sure other people are going to post other movies that I have cried to!
Beauty and the Beast because the brown-haired, brown-eyed smart woman gets the love of her life and his castle! She knows that beauty is not everything, especially when she says,

"Gaston, you're primeval" to which he replies, "Why thank, you, Belle!"

Belle: Gaston, you are positively pr...ank you Belle.

(My original hair color is brown, but I prefer red).
I am a very intelligent woman and I have had to live this scene. When I met my DH who is smarter than me, a really tough thing to do, I knew we were going to be married because he wanted a smart wife.

We found each other and that is why I cry in this movie.

This is my favorite disney movie of all time! It was also my favorite fairy tale growing up. I just think the message is awesome.

The Hours (not necessarily romantic, but very girly and it always makes me cry)
Far From Heaven

I cried in Sex and The City: the movie

Maybe it's just because I loved the tv series so much, but when Big...well I'll let you watch it and find out.

I never used to cry during movies, except when i was younger & watching things like The Fox & the Hound, I cried when the old lady let the fox(i cant remember his name!) go.. that really made me cry.

But now that im older, i am SUCH a softie.. i cried during Titanic, but i think that was more bc i was a huge Leo fan at the time & when he died it upset me so much that i couldnt stop crying. P.S. I love you was a movie where i cried pretty much every time she got a letter or recording. there are lots more but i really cant think of any.

But heres one that ISNT a sad movie at all and youll probably all think im weird for saying it but Pirates of the Carribean: At Worlds End.. when Orlando Bloom(Will) was dying, before they cut his heart out, it was so sad bc his wife was there and all it just made me so sad!
