I just watched Kramer vs Kramer again after many years and I cried when the wee boy was in his bed sobbing for his mama after she left him and his Dad.

I'm sure there are some, but can't think of any commercial movies that made me cry. Although just the other day a simple photo brought a tear to my eye.

...San Bernardino resident had been arrested after failing to appear in court for two traffic violations, and his best friend, Buzz Lightyear, was impounded. Thomas was told he needed 0 to get the dog back — half of it by the following Wednesday — or the adoption process would begin. It was Friday, and he had in his pocket..

And this little movie (below) too - likely an heavily edited propaganda piece from the save the whale folks, heh - but I found it very moving and somewhat hypnotic, as I'm not a big peta/save-the-whale type. Even the old dude in the speedo didn't distract my usually stoic emotions from what must have been tears of joy...relief?

Terms of Endearment.

I so admired the mother - she was strong and there until the end - everyone was just what she said they were and when those nurses did not sense the intensity necessary relative to her only child - all hell broke loose and she got it done.

Yes, and perhaps others' generosity will leave him enough $ left over to pay those delinquent fines, pay his bondsman or whoever got him out of the people pound'.. and get himself a little medicinal to smooth out these traumatic events.

Watching Daytona 500 and the Budweiser commercial comes on where the young man and his horse are reunited for a moment. That commercial is so emotional for me - the love is so apparent.

Me too - but it was the superbowl that brought me to the ad.

There was a recent instance I couldn't recall in my prior post - this was it. If ads are supposed to make you feel, this one wins.

edited to add the video for those that have missed it:

That commercial reminds me of crying a lot during the movie "War Horse".

Yes from the Super Bowl and made me cry then and every time since. Also the vid above so sweet - makes you want to lie down with them and go night night.

You know I purposely have not seen that movie because I knew what it would do to me.

I know it is a wonderful movie.
