Other than that, old school movies: Imitation of Life, An Affair to Remember and It's A Wonderful Life.
Newer movies, The Queen, Dances With Wolves and The Notebook.
Any movie that involves a dog crossing the rainbow bridge, which no doubts stems from the childhood trauma of watching Old Yeller. 😳 My Dog Skip, Marley and Me and the like bring on the worst ugly crying ever seen. 😭
I thought about Driving Miss Daisy the other day and yes, there's definitely the Tandy factor, but there's also the whole Morgan Freeman thing.
I was thinking about his films and a few of them are tearjerkers for me.
Driving Miss Daisy
Glory (just watched it again this week)
The Shawshank Redemption
And here's the weird one: Se7en.
The Hemingway quote at the end always gets me.
Agreed! I ❤️ Morgan Freeman. Shawshank Redemption and Glory are both fantastic movies. Will have to check out Se7en.

Ooh, I forgot about 'Fried Green Tomatoes'. That was one great movie. I got to eat lunch at the Whistle Stop Cafe and we walked around many of the other areas used in the movie. It was very cool!
As to the movie itself - one of my all-time favs. Bates, Tandy, Parker, and Tyson...great actors. It was a story like nothing else.
Sounds like you had a great experience at the Whistle Stop Cafe. It was a great movie on so many levels.

Just be aware that Se7en is a tad dark. But clever.

So glad to see someone else besides me tears up at the end of the Magificent Seven. That is my all-time favorite movie. It's so much more than just a western.
Best Years of Our Lives is another one that is possibly the best movie ever made. I have to have kleenex on hand for both of them even though I have seen those movies dozens of times.

A lot of people dislike Anne Hathaway, but I have to say I found this film quite charming.
If you haven't seen it, check it out.
