What's your favorite tear-jerker


Posted: Sep 4, 2012

I was watching Imitation of Life today and that has to be my favorite tear-jerker of all time (the one with Lana Turner).  I told myself I am a big girl now and I can handle it. Yeah right! Cried like a baby.

Somersby is a tear-jerker too, but I can't watch it again.

Terms of Endearment/Blackhawk Down - CALIMTDV

YUP...I see Tearms of Endearment on TV and I can't change the channel fast enough. Once was all I can stand.

One other movie that just tore me up was Blackhawk Down. It was so upsetting I had to watch parts of it on fast forward. Even the ending when the names of the dead soldiers scrolled by was heartbreaking. I was so upset with myself just wondering where was I when this happened and what was so important in my life that I didn't know about this! It was disturbingly heartbreaking and it stuck with me for weeks.

Where The Red Fern Grows - Wilson Rawls

[ In Reply To ..]
My dad gave me the book for my 8th birthday. It was the first book that touched my heart and made me cry from reading.

When it was made into a movie - I was 10 by then - he took me to see it and we both cried.

It was a special thing between him and me .. red ferns.

Not necessarily my favorite movie, but made me cry harder than I have ever cried from a movie.

Ronald Reagan Wanted To Tear Down A WallNov 11, 2016
For me that says it all.  Trump is a petty little man not worthy to be called a Republican. For people who say the Republican party ignored them or let them down, you let it happen. What I hated most about this political season was that it demonstrated the real coarsening of America--and nowhere was that more front and center than the vulgar arrogance of Donald Trump. ...

Berlin Wall. Begun after Lenin's Bolshevik Revolution in 1917, the Soviet Union existed from 1922 to 1991. With its motto "Workers of the World, Unite!" the Soviet tactic was to train agitators, community organizers, labor organizers, and agent provocateurs-provoking agents. These would organize people with grievances and stir up riots to subvert and "tear down" the existing government. When social chaos caused major domestic disruptions, the public would then willingly accept a new o ...

Least Favorite Christmas Music?Dec 02, 2011
I have to admit I can't stand the "Christmas Shoes" song.  I have a high tolerance for schmalz, but that's over the top for me.  I change the radio station when that comes on.    I'm sorta on the fence about "I Want a Hippopotamus for Christmas".  It's kind of cute, but it has the disadvantage of sticking in my head and I end up singing it the rest of the day! Anyone else? ...
