This supercut of emotional and touching moments from movies will probably get your tear ducts going. Most of these fall into the category of movies that I remember from when I was a kid, like E.T. and Iron Giant, but there are some movies from the aughts in there too, like the final choice of Lord of the Rings: Return of the King. It’s a good thing that last choice is a bit of a happy-cry, because the rest of these moments are just emotional wreckage.
There are 27 movie scenes included here in total, which seems like a lot, and yet I could easily think of many other movie moments that have made me cry–either in a happy way or a sad way. The end of The Little Mermaid makes me happy-cry every time, for reasons that I’ve written about before. Toy Story 3‘s climactic moment appears in the super-cut here, but of course Toy Story 2 has its own heart-wrenching scene. There’s only one scene from Up in here (the one from the beginning) but the end of that movie is a glurge-fest too. And Brave? I can’t be the only person who cried watching Brave.
What scenes from movies get your waterworks flowing? Any favorites to share?
