Just remembered another one: "Dancer in the Dark", by Lars von Trier, but it didn't make me cry the second time I watched it; I think I had put up a defensive wall in the meantime, because of how incredibly painful it was the first time round.

Like Meadow said about "The Secret Life of Bees" I have never cried so much in a cinema as I did watching DitD. I started early on and almost didn't stop for the rest of the film. I think that the character played by Bjork is pretty aspie/autie.

I cried all the time when I was a child, but I haven't broken down in tears in the past ten years. I've shed a few tears watching:

Pinocchio
Blade Runner
Grave of the Fireflies

The first two was really just at the ending. The last one was at several points, even the beginning of the film.

I'm with Hector on this one. So much so that I even made a music video in honor of it:

Several of Emily Watson's films make me cry. But, I haven't seen Breaking the Waves yet. I really want to see it.

I always come close to crying during one particular scene in the Revolutionary Girl Utena Movie.

! !! !!SPOILER ALERT!! !! !

It's when Utena remembers that the boy who drowned in the river was Touga, and she realizes she has to let go. Utena's eyes fill with tears as the area surrounding Touga's ghost is filled with water, and they share a last kiss goodbye. The thing that makes it sad is that the Sunlit Garden song plays while it's happening, and it makes it much more poignant.

You've seen Breaking the Waves?! I'm an Emily Watson fan, but my mum won't let me see the movie until I'm 18. I've seen a few scenes, though, and I believe that Watson should of gotten the Oscar. Most of Emily Watson's films make you cry!

It's quite soul-destroying that film

You should make sure you aren't feeling sad or depressed beforehand when you do watch all of it. I remember I cried for days after I watched it.
