Did this movie make you cry?


I'm not one to really cry while watching a film but it happens every once and awhile. I wrote up this discussion of the handful of films that have done it to me in my life. I remember watching the made for tv version of this as a child and it hit me pretty hard. I wondering if the updated version could still get e today as an adult?

Yes. I somehow managed to be completely unspoiled for it (just saw it the other day, didn't know there was an older TV version 'til reading here), and I absolutely loved that little girl. The revelation shocked me nearly as much as it did the Jess character. I didn't just sniffle a little, I full-on cried.

And then again, when Jess cried in his father's arms. I was crying all over the place!

I always cry my eyes out whenever I watch this movie.
It hits harder for me because when I was just about to graduate Primary School (2002), my friend died when he was taken by strong currents in the river and drowned.
So I sobbed harder than I should while watching this movie. It's just relatable.

I just catch this movie on Tv one afternoon, without even seeing the trailer or anything, I knew the actors from others movies, and it really surprised me how good this movie is. The same thing happended to me a few years ago with the movie "Big Fish". And everytime I watch those 2 movies I cry. I'm a 31 years old male from Venezuela...... also cry with last year movie "About Time".

I had no idea what the movie was about when I put it on with the wife and kids.

The ending haunted my soul for weeks. I couldn't get it out of my head.

Not full-out cry, but watery-eyes for sure
