I remember my oldest son breaking his heart at this point in the film.
Nevertheless, Gone With the Wind made me cry more. I started greeting when Bonnie was killed and Rhett couldn't bear for her to be buried as she was scared of the dark. I wailed when Rhett went off at the end into the mist and I didn't stop for 18 hours!!!!
I would have a hundred Artaxes squashed into that swamp if I could have made Rhett turn back!!!! :lol:

I didn't watch the film Bobbie but I've read the book and I thought it was one of the most shocking moments. I did start watching the film at one point in my life but thought it was terribly slow at the beginning.

Had no idea what this was, so googled it..

I think i would have needed to watch the whole movie to find it sad and even then, i think i would have been hard pushed.. (its a horse.. :roll: )

For me the saddest moment was when Demi Moore stopped turning the pottery in Ghost, it made my eyes water, not greet, just water. :cry:

You'd also possibly have had to have been about 10 years old the first time you saw it and emotionally scarred for the rest of your life by it.

Or just had a heart :wink:

I canna hardly mind the never ending story at all, just Limahls sooperb theme song. And that a rubbish metalcore band are named Atreyu (Yes Bitter, I do have all their albums), but apart from that.

Now i cant remember exact details, but I remember being pretty sad for Hazel the rabbit in Watership Down.
EDIT: DUH, Hazel got shot = Bright Eyes, though now Im a bit upset cos ive just realised Hazel was a boy. How does that work?

The scene where Mr Bean's mini was flattened by a tank takes a bit of beating. :(
