The Champ

[magser]

Ok this is totally random,but i got to thinking today about the movies that really get you bawling....

For me its The Champ.... from all the way back in 1979 .... I swear to god,its about the only film that can actually get me bawling freely no matter who is in the room...Lol the tears form in my eyes when the opening credits start and just get worse as the film goes on.... with an adorable Ricky Schrooder ,and Jon Voight.... this is the trailer from 1979 :

And the final scenes from said movie,watch at your own peril :

So what movie does it for you????

I am terrible! I am a sap, got teased so much growing up by my brothers for crying. My hubby and kids now are just used to me...LOL!

So too many to mention!

But god I remember this one..even my dad had tears in his eyes!

I am usually well able to fight back tears,and have done for many many movies ... like say 'Seabiscuit' and such... but god this film just KILLS me! And lord seven year old Ricky Schrooder is so brilliant in that movie.That scene where he comes back to his dad after he had sent him away,and the dad goes 'do you know what you are?' and he replies'yeah, a pain in the ass' thats where they start flowing....
