As I was watching The Today Show, it was mentioned that in a study, if people see a movie that causes crying, not only it will change brain chemistry, but people will feel better after.

So the question is: What are movies that have made you cry and still do?

{However, if you can't think of any, name some movies that have made you laugh very hard and still do.}

The First Pokémon movie makes me cry every time.
Grave of the Fireflies is probably the saddest movie I have ever seen.

There are probably a lot of others, but that is all I can think of right now.

Sometimes it's almost weird how emotional some flicks make me, sometimes I'm just an emotional wreck and I'll cry playing Battle Ship...B7, hit...ohh no I hope I didn't kill any crew members :( lol-

I am Legend - the scene where he has to kill his dog is fukking awful. I think the movies where animals die is even worse then people....I think because animals don't have an ounce of evil in them, they just wanna make you happy and live life so it hurts when I have to think about them suffering.

7 Pounds
Hunger Games

I know there's more but I can't think of any off the top of my head

The first movie that ever made me cry was The Fox and the Hound. I was young (7 or younger.)

Most movies that make me cry are due to sadness or sweetness.

But the one movie that made me cry out of anger was Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee. I was crying HOT, furious tears. This is the only movie that has ever caused this kind of reaction in me.
