For All The Manly Men Out There....

[terdancam]

Myself and my bro were having this conversation about Gladiator, after I put the film on the other night to cheer myself up..............

I forgot about that ruddy ending, and ended up with full blown chin wobble :D

That got me to thinking-----what films or tv moments make the menfolk out here upset enough to have to fake the "i`m having a yawn moment to cover the fact tears are escaping, and i don`t want the wife to know i`m not emotionless".

E.t. of course is the other one, but then having kids and seeing that Documentary the other night on the little girl without a face------well i`m glad the wife works nights, 'cos i had to turn it off!!

And before you ask i`m a 6ft,15st, rugby lovin,is200 drivin, chav thumper-----who eats bricks...............for pudding.

The end of Blade Runner, where Batty (Rutger Hauer) comes to terms with his imminent death and saves the life of Deckert (Harrison Ford), who was sent to kill him.

[chib1177]

with the drugs the doc has got me on at present just about anything remotely sad or unhappy

its embarrassing sometimes

the wife just laughs

Forrest Gump was always a good one to fall apart over

[Rodders_UK]

Man on Fire springs to mind for me - Dakota Fanning could be one of the most astonishing actresses I've ever seen.

thought of some more, and funnily enough they are all based on father/son relationships...................knights tale, contact (ok that was a daughter )

i`m now off to kill some innocent animals, build a fire and talk about tanks

[legendswraith]

virtually any film where someone makes thesupreme sacrifice for someone else has me in bits man on fire i agree with saving private ryan at the begining on the normandy beaches was anoyher but the big one that took me by surprise was randy quaid in independance dy when he can't fire the missile off and rqadios in " tell the kids i love them" then piles into the mother ship. Could have took me home in a bucket after seeing that

Hindi films normally leave me deep asleep

The first time I watched Castaway with mates, I thought it was the funniest film ever- i mean come on, a grown man talking to a ball?! Quality comedy.

But when I watched it alone it wasn't as funny

[Colin P]

can't recall a film making me cry but a few lump in throat ones, one that made me laugh was 'the green mile' with tom hanks, michael clarke duncan etc etc was funny when the girl in front was holding back the tears and then all of a sudden she let it go and blubbed till the end!

[jaylist]

Glory definatley.

When the wind blows.

Requiem for a dream left me too traumatised to feel anything but shock.

Final Fantasy at the end.

[javadude]

Oh and.... Meet Joe Black

[adz]

Band of Brothers, especially after each episode when the real characters talk about what happened. Although it's 10- 1 hour episodes so not strictly "a film"

Field of dreams as well, it's that old father/son thing again.
