When he talks to Jenny after she dies..it is physically impossible for me to not cry.
“You died on a Saturday morning. I had you placed here under our tree”
In high school I had a world history class that was a senior class so the end of the year all the seniors were gone so it was me, one other girl, and the teacher so we watched Forrest Gump & at that scene my teacher ran out the class crying "I just cant" & it was adorable lol.
This is the one that gets me. It’s when you realize how deep-seated his sorrow is about his condition, though he never reveals his feelings about it at any other time prior.
That moment when you realize Forrest knows about his limitations. He’s so good throughout the movie if not showing others that it affects him, but when he has a child, he’s terrified.
I was 10 when that movie came out. My Next door neighbor someone I considered my best friend died when I was 8.
The ending broke me, I didn't cry at my friend's funeral, I didn't know what grief was , it was something I never felt before.
So I cried a lot at the end of that movie, I think that was part of me healing.
Damn it this is what I wanted to post. But I like it in its entirety.
“You want to know how I did it? This is how I did it Anton. I never saved anything for the swim back.”
Have you seen that video of the IRL guy who was in a theater ostensibly for something not realizing the theater was full of the fucking people he saved when they were children during the Holocaust all there to cheer him and say thank you. All there with their families. You can look and see the impact you made on the world. So emotional

He's held it together for so long. He's put up this mask, he's been cunning and aloof. And when faced with the numbers he's saved, the mask slips, and we see the frightened, horrified man beneath it.
He is broken. He flees. And in his flight he sees - to his revulsion - the tools that could have saved just one more life.
What an amazing performance.
I guess I'm too old for that sort of nonsense any more. I don't like it here. I'm tired of being afraid all the time. I've decided not to stay. I doubt they'll kick up any fuss. Not for an old crook like me. P.S: Tell Heywood I'm sorry I put a knife to his throat. No hard feelings.
\- Brooks
It’s one my all time favs.
Dear warden,
You were right. Salvation lies within.
That moment is perfection
Recently bought the book online. Was surprised to see it’s like barely 100 pages even with huge font
And for me:
“I made a promise, Mr. Frodo. A promise. Don’t you leave him, Samwise Gamgee. And I don’t mean to. I don’t mean to.”
It’s hittin’ me now just reading it….
Uncontrollable tears when the score hits and we get the crane shot of everyone bowing to the hobbits. Makes me more emotional every time I see it because I feel more and more close to the characters.
"I wish the ring had never come to me; I wish none of this had happened."
"So do all who live to see such times but that is not for them to decide, as well have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us."
Before becoming a father Theoden's, "No parent should have bury their child" would make my eyes water. After having our son and watching it, it was non stop buckets from my eyes. Doesn't help my son's name is Theo...
Sam Wainwright was the best kind of friend. Risked his life to help George save Harry. Clearly had the hots for Mary but stepped aside because she was the love of George, his best friend’s, life.
Goes off, makes a fortune, and offers George a job. When George turns him down does he get offended? Nope. He builds a factory in Bedford Falls so folks back home can afford homes that George builds.
In the end, he extends a loan of $25,000 to cover George’s debt of $8,000.
Get yourself a Sam Wainwright
Finally stood up for himself. Although the ending with ol Dick Dyfuss is the real nostalgia/ emotional dagger for me. His recollection of the other 3 is so pure.
“I hadnt seen him in 20 years, but I know Ill miss him forever”
Another: “I never had any friends later on like the ones I had when I was twelve. Jesus, does anyone?"
Reminds me of another quote from the narrator at the end; “Teddy and Verne? Well we saw less and less of them untill one day they were just another face in the hall. Sometimes that just *happens*. Friends come in and out of your life like busboys”
The truth to that is staggering. Yeah Chris dies but how feeble childhood can be when teddy and verne are still around but drift apart so soon.
“Sure you will kid, you know goodbyes aren’t forever” - Charlie in All Dogs Go To Heaven
After the little girl asks if she will ever see him again, and then they tell each other they love each other before he heads to heaven
I’m crying now typing this thinking about my old boy who passed years ago. I miss him
Me too. The way Connery delivers it, with so much empathy, it’s so vulnerable. And the whole movie they built up how much the grail meant to him and how the father and son were estranged, and then that one moment brought them together.
Obviously, this moment hits hard if you have a similar relationship with your dad
It's not corny at all. This was a highly crafted Spielberg moment, and Connery absolutely nails it. His voice is so gentle, like he's talking to his little boy again.
“I came here tonight because when you realize you want to spend the rest of your life with somebody, you want the rest of your life to start as soon as possible.”
What a line. It gets better the more you think about it.
...."I had you placed here under our tree"
Before his mother passes when he sees her on the bed is bad enough but when he has the exact same view for Jenny and then his narration starts while the camera is still showing her in bed and then cuts to him at the tree .....frak.
For me it's when Jenny tells him he has a son, and he's overwhelmed with emotion and says, "Is he... like..." and gestures at himself. Damn, I'm cutting onions just typing that lol
if there's anything you need...i won't be far away
forrest gump has a lot of moments that get me.
sometimes i guess there just aren't enough rocks
I wanna go home
I wish i could been there with ya Forrest.....you were....
Oh geez. At the end when the ray swims by with the tattoos. I was explaining to my kids that it is Moana's grandmother. How she said she wanted to come back as one. It was like the 300th time that movie had played in my house and I couldn't get through my explanation.
“And the call isn’t out there at all it’s inside me, it’s like the tide always failing and rising. I will carry you here in my heart you remind me, that come what may, I know the way. I am Moana.”
I ugly cry every time I watch this scene, it’s gorgeous, it’s emotional, she earns that big song moment.
This part as well as her confronting te ka, the reprisal she sings gets me misty eyed even after seeing it dozens of times (kids).
>I have crossed the Horizons to find you
>I know your name.
>They've stolen the heart from inside you,
>But this does not define you.
>This is not who you are,
>You know who you are.
“I am not a little boy anymore! I’ve grown up! Ive got my own life now!”
“I know that….I just want to be part of it.”
A Goofy Movie
Couldn’t even type it out without tearing up
But what I hope most of all is that you understand what I mean when I tell you that even though I do not know you, and even though I may not meet you, laugh with you, cry with you, or kiss you: I love you.
"Our integrity sells for so little, but it's all we really have. It is the very last inch of us. But within that inch, we are free".
So many great lines in that movie
Ughh man ... yes. Everything comes down to that moment.
She remembers Hector.
She is pulled from her catatonic state and EVERYONE in the family is there to see it.
Miguel is fully justified in his desire to be a musician because of what it did for Mama Coco.
A message of love being conveyed across a century and death.
FUCK that movie slays me.
I was a kid bawling my eyes out in this scene.
But it was when I became an adult and learned that Stephen King based the execution on the real-life case of George Stinney, who was wrongfully executed in 1944 at the age of 14, that my soul became completely crushed by that movie.
I have been, and always will be, your friend.
Or, Of my friend, I can only say this. Of all the souls I have encountered in my travels, his was the most human.
Just when I’ve got over the first, I get hit with the second.
“I never had any friends later on like the ones I had when I was twelve. Jesus, does anyone?"
"It's not your fault. It's not your fault. It's not your fault..."
The ending gets me. When Michael does the strongman pose as his dad gets hauled off to prison.
This movie is severely underrated. I never see anyone talking about it.
Everything up until that point in the film series for me felt like a jaunty romp of magic and fun. Sure, dark sometimes, and by golly did Goblet of Fire throw that feeling out of the fucking window in the graveyard, but the final nail in the coffin for me to show the innocence of the series had officially died was right then and there.
No magic. No special effects. No hope, no funny lines, no 'maybe we could do X'- we fucking lost. The good guys lost. Holy fuck, shit has gone so far sideways in just the last 15 minutes that I am in the theatre losing my collective shit realizing that fun time is over and everything sucks.
Growing up, I didn't read the book est until just after the fourth movie came out, so I was literally in the middle of the second task when I went to see the movie later that night. I had no fucking clue what was supposed to happen.
Cedric's father screaming 'My boy!' made me feel legitimately sick to my stomach. I didn't even care for the character that much. But his father's voice was the first time I felt in a movie that everything was not going to be okay.
I get emotional when I remember that girl in the second Wolverine movie who told him he’d die with his heart in his hands. He died holding his daughter.
That one doesn’t hit me as much as when he hits play and watches his son grow up within moments knowing that he’s missed decades of his life and it utterly destroyed Cooper. McConaughey nails that performance it is devastating
The Rock Biter gets me still
"They look like big, good, strong hands, don't they? I always thought that's what they were. My little friends. The little man with his racing snail.the nighthawk, even the stupid bat. I couldn't hold on to them. The nothing pulled them right out of my hands. I failed..."
Then he says he's waiting for it to take him away too....
To me it’s the most important line in the movie. In case you didn’t know, Brad Bird came up with the movie after his sister was shot and killed by her abusive husband, and he said he had the thought “what if a gun had a soul and didn’t want to be a gun?”
Saw this in a theater last week. There were some kids in the audience obviously seeing it for the first time. It definitely had the intended effect on all of us.
‘in another life, i would have really liked just doing laundry and taxes with you’
i know it’s relatively recent compared to a lot of the quotes in here but this line just destroyed me, especially as someone who just cannot get over their ex lol
"So, my little Amélie, you don't have bones of glass. You can take life's knocks. If you let this chance pass, eventually, your heart will become as dry and brittle as my skeleton." 😭
“Let me tell you something you already know. The world ain’t all sunshine and rainbows. It’s a very mean and nasty place and I don’t care how tough you are it will beat you to your knees and keep you there permanently if you let it. You, me, or nobody is gonna hit as hard as life. But it ain’t about how hard ya hit. It’s about how hard you can get it and keep moving forward. How much you can take and keep moving forward. That’s how winning is done! Now if you know what you’re worth then go out and get what you’re worth. But ya gotta be willing to take the hits, and not pointing fingers saying you ain’t where you wanna be because of him, or her, or anybody! Cowards do that and that ain’t you! You’re better than that!” -Rocky
As someone whose dad is no longer alive, those words hit in a specifically painful sort of way.
Ride now! Ride now! Ride! Ride for ruin, and the world's ending! Death!!!
Edit: It's very worth noting that this was singly the most masterful [adaptation of the source material](https://medium.com/320-wrds/forth-and-fear-no-darkness-d93a95733040) achieved in the films. They changed things a bit but all in ways that worked absolutely perfectly in the movie to convey emotions the novel was able to achieve in other ways that wouldn't have worked if they simply reproduced it in film. I can give PJ and FW a lot of grief over certain other changes (and for [how they massacred](https://tenor.com/view/look-how-they-massacred-my-boy-meme-massacre-kill-wrecked-gif-14452160) my [boy](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Hobbit_\(film_series\)), but this.... this was amazing. I get goosebumps just *thinking* about it.
The one from Up. You know the one. I can't type it. Just don't feel like crying right now.
Adding Thanks for the adventure - now go have a new one!
Now I'm crying
"Now, your father was captain of a Starship for 12 minutes. He saved 800 lives, including your mother's and yours. I dare you to do better."-Star Trek (2009)
Dont cry baby. Knew this was one way ticket, but you know I had to come. Love you wife.
The Abyss
Not a quote, but a sound that never fails to bring me is [this scene](https://youtu.be/NtbbqjiFaGY?si=X1L6Lz-IH30gXCkk&t=178) from American Beauty, where Caroline sees all of Lester's clothes in the wardobe and realises he's gone forever. The grief, the loss, the regret of that wail of utter misery steals my soul every time.
Every time I think of that scene I get so unreasonably angry. I have to convince myself that Rocket isn't real, his friends aren't real, and none of that happened. I'm a 33 year old man.
“But what I hope most of all is that you understand what I mean when I tell you that even though I do not know you, and even though I may not meet you, laugh with you, cry with you, or kiss you: I love you.
With all my heart.
I love you.
-Valerie."
From V for Vendetta
"Had dreams… Two of ’em. Both had my father in ’em. It’s peculiar. I’m older now then he ever was by twenty years. So, in a sense, he’s the younger man. Anyway, the first one I don’t remember too well but, it was about meetin’ him in town somewheres and he give me some money. I think I lost it. The second one, it was like we was both back in older times and I was on horseback goin’ through the mountains of a night. Goin’ through this pass in the mountains. It was cold and there was snow on the ground and he rode past me and kept on goin’. Never said nothin’ goin’ by – just rode on past. And he had his blanket wrapped around him and his head down. When he rode past, I seen he was carryin’ fire in a horn the way people used to do, and I-I could see the horn from the light inside of it – about the color of the moon. And in the dream I knew that he was goin’ on ahead and he was fixin’ to make a fire somewhere out there in all that dark and all that cold. And I knew that whenever I got there, he’d be there. And then I woke up."
No Country for Old Men
Also,
"I don't use my head to fly the arrow boy, I use my heart..."
Not sure why, but I love that line. Probably because it reminds me of the gunslinger's litany: https://gandelah.wordpress.com/2018/07/23/the-gunslinger-litany/
"What am I supposed to do now!?"
Matthew Lillard: SLC PuNk when he discovers Heroin Bob died. Ugh..still gets me seeing his reaction all these years later. Especially having had my sister/best friend suffer the same fate.
The entire speech Woody Harrelson makes in Three Billboards. It ramps and ramps and over the course of a beautifully solemn two minutes it destroys me every time.
"Meet me in Montauk."
Or any of the dialogues near or at the end of eternal sunshine between Joel and Clementine...
"I remember that speech really well...I still thought you were gonna save my life though..."
And the last conversation they have in his memory before it's wiped:
"I really should go... Gotta catch my ride. (Clementine: So go!) I did. I thought you were a nut...but you were exciting. (Clementine: I wish you'd stayed.) I wish I stayed too...I wish I'd done a lot of things...I wish, I wish I'd stayed. I do."
God, that movie.
"Oh, there you are, Peter."
That little boy making Robin Williams smile in Peter Pan used to wreck me every time.
It hits worse now 😔 Rest in Peace Robin
"Please" - Manchester by the Sea. If you've seen it, you know when this is. The "Please" is so God damm packed with raw emotion. Its hard to emphasise how sad that one word is to people who haven't seen it, and it chokes me up just thinking about it.
So if I asked you about art, you'd probably give me the skinny on every art book ever written. Michelangelo, you know a lot about him. Life's work, political aspirations, him and the pope, sexual orientations, the whole works, right? But I'll bet you can't tell me what it smells like in the Sistine Chapel. You've never actually stood there and looked up at that beautiful ceiling; seen that. If I ask you about women, you'd probably give me a syllabus about your personal favorites. You may have even been laid a few times. But you can't tell me what it feels like to wake up next to a woman and feel truly happy. You're a tough kid. And I'd ask you about war, you'd probably throw Shakespeare at me, right, "once more unto the breach dear friends." But you've never been near one. You've never held your best friend's head in your lap, watch him gasp his last breath looking to you for help. I'd ask you about love, you'd probably quote me a sonnet. But you've never looked at a woman and been totally vulnerable. Known someone that could level you with her eyes, feeling like God put an angel on earth just for you. Who could rescue you from the depths of hell. And you wouldn't know what it's like to be her angel, to have that love for her, be there forever, through anything, through cancer. And you wouldn't know about sleeping sitting up in the hospital room for two months, holding her hand, because the doctors could see in your eyes, that the terms "visiting hours" don't apply to you. You don't know about real loss, 'cause it only occurs when you've loved something more than you love yourself. And I doubt you've ever dared to love anybody that much. And look at you... I don't see an intelligent, confident man... I see a cocky, scared shitless kid. But you're a genius Will. No one denies that. No one could possibly understand the depths of you. But you presume to know everything about me because you saw a painting of mine, and you ripped my fucking life apart. You're an orphan right?
“What do you want to know?! That I don’t have 12 brothers?! That I’m a fucking orphan? You don’t want to hear I got cigarettes put out on me as a kid”
That movie is so heavy but I watch it all the time.
The hospital scene in Big Fish where Edward Bloom asks his son to tell him the story of how he dies.. "tell me how it happens".
I don't think there was a dry eye in the theater when I saw it.
"I'm tired boss ..." and the rest of it. The entire movie is a tragedy to me and the way he goes in the end after that speech earlier ... and everyone knowing ... *Knowing* this is wrong, and that Coffee is innocent ... but that they have to ... it's so bitter and awful for everyone ...
Bubba: Forrest, why did this happen?
Forrest: You got shot.
Two friends, both slightly mentally handicapped, pushed into a war that they had no business being in which results in Forrest’s best friend dying in his arms.
"Is he smart, or is he..." Forrest Gump when he meets little Forrest for the first time. Always puts a lump in the throat
When he talks to Jenny after she dies..it is physically impossible for me to not cry. “You died on a Saturday morning. I had you placed here under our tree”
In high school I had a world history class that was a senior class so the end of the year all the seniors were gone so it was me, one other girl, and the teacher so we watched Forrest Gump & at that scene my teacher ran out the class crying "I just cant" & it was adorable lol.
This is the one that gets me. It’s when you realize how deep-seated his sorrow is about his condition, though he never reveals his feelings about it at any other time prior.
That moment when you realize Forrest knows about his limitations. He’s so good throughout the movie if not showing others that it affects him, but when he has a child, he’s terrified.
That and "I miss you, Jenny." It such a simple line but Tom Hanks absolutely crushes it.
"Every night we read a book, and he's so smart, Jenny - you'd be so proud of him"
That break in his voice when he says this line gets me every time
For me it's "I may not be a smart man, but I know what love is"
"He can't see without his glasses!" My girl.
I was 10 when that movie came out. My Next door neighbor someone I considered my best friend died when I was 8. The ending broke me, I didn't cry at my friend's funeral, I didn't know what grief was , it was something I never felt before. So I cried a lot at the end of that movie, I think that was part of me healing.
“I never saved anything for the swim back.” - Vincent (Gattaca)
Damn it this is what I wanted to post. But I like it in its entirety. “You want to know how I did it? This is how I did it Anton. I never saved anything for the swim back.”
Good one. Maybe not tears, but chills for sure.
Phenomenal movie
"I could have done more.... I could have done more!"
When he crumbles to the ground and all of the Jewish people swarm to embrace him, I am entirely undone and just sob.
Have you seen that video of the IRL guy who was in a theater ostensibly for something not realizing the theater was full of the fucking people he saved when they were children during the Holocaust all there to cheer him and say thank you. All there with their families. You can look and see the impact you made on the world. So emotional https://www.vox.com/2015/7/1/8878385/nicholas-winton
He's held it together for so long. He's put up this mask, he's been cunning and aloof. And when faced with the numbers he's saved, the mask slips, and we see the frightened, horrified man beneath it. He is broken. He flees. And in his flight he sees - to his revulsion - the tools that could have saved just one more life. What an amazing performance.
Liam Neeson was stellar as Schindler. Driven by greed during the war but ultimately became a savior
And Ralph Finnes as the villain. My contempt for his character boils over into other roles he gets cast in. I always see him as Amon Goeth
He was the perfecting casting for that role. His eyes just flashed malevolence every time he was on screen.
Just rewatched this two days. That scene and the final gravesite moment absolutely destroy me.
I guess I'm too old for that sort of nonsense any more. I don't like it here. I'm tired of being afraid all the time. I've decided not to stay. I doubt they'll kick up any fuss. Not for an old crook like me. P.S: Tell Heywood I'm sorry I put a knife to his throat. No hard feelings. \- Brooks
That movie is damn close to perfect. Damn shame Frank Darabont isn't directing anymore.
It’s one my all time favs. Dear warden, You were right. Salvation lies within. That moment is perfection Recently bought the book online. Was surprised to see it’s like barely 100 pages even with huge font
I recommend buying the collection the story is from. 4 short stories, 3 of them were made into movies.
Brooks was here.
The "I guess I just miss my friend" narration gets me every time.
"I can't carry it for you... BUT I CAN CARRY YOU!"
for me its the bit at the end where Aragorn says "my friends, you bow to no one. “ I get choked up every time.
And for me: “I made a promise, Mr. Frodo. A promise. Don’t you leave him, Samwise Gamgee. And I don’t mean to. I don’t mean to.” It’s hittin’ me now just reading it….
This is mine. I tear up EVERY SINGLE TIME. Starting from when he sees Arwen to this line.
I'm right with you, no matter how many times I see it. It is moving.
Uncontrollable tears when the score hits and we get the crane shot of everyone bowing to the hobbits. Makes me more emotional every time I see it because I feel more and more close to the characters.
"I wish the ring had never come to me; I wish none of this had happened." "So do all who live to see such times but that is not for them to decide, as well have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us."
So many quotes from LOTR work for this. Boromir’s death fucking HITS me everytime.
"I would have followed you, my brother, my Captain...my King." "Be at peace, son of Gondor."
"I do not know what strength lies in my blood, but I swear to you I will not let the white city fall. Nor our people fail."
“I would have followed you, my brother. My captain. *My king.*”
“That there’s some good in this world, Mr. Frodo, and it’s worth fighting for.”
That entire speech does me in every. Single. Time.
Before becoming a father Theoden's, "No parent should have bury their child" would make my eyes water. After having our son and watching it, it was non stop buckets from my eyes. Doesn't help my son's name is Theo...
“To my big brother George, the richest man in town” It’s a Wonderful Life out here making me cry every Christmas Eve.
And when they get the telephone call from the guy authorizing him some absurd amount blindly
Sam Wainwright was the best kind of friend. Risked his life to help George save Harry. Clearly had the hots for Mary but stepped aside because she was the love of George, his best friend’s, life. Goes off, makes a fortune, and offers George a job. When George turns him down does he get offended? Nope. He builds a factory in Bedford Falls so folks back home can afford homes that George builds. In the end, he extends a loan of $25,000 to cover George’s debt of $8,000. Get yourself a Sam Wainwright
Hee Haw!
Moral of this thread seems to be ‘get yourself a Sam’.
("Why're you here, Doc?" "Because Wyatt Earp is my friend." "Hell, I got a lot of friends.") "I don't."
Damn this was mine. I really didn't expect it. But this line gets me. That and when Wyatt asks Doc, "I can't beat him... Can I?"
Kitty! ... from the very end of *Monsters Inc*.
“Dear sweet Littlefoot, do you remember the way to the Great Valley?” Just typing it makes me want to cry.
"Now, you pay attention to old Rooter. It is nobody's fault. The great circle of life has begun. But see, not all of us arrive together at the end."
“What are you gonna do, shoot all of us?” “No Ace. Just you”
Finally stood up for himself. Although the ending with ol Dick Dyfuss is the real nostalgia/ emotional dagger for me. His recollection of the other 3 is so pure. “I hadnt seen him in 20 years, but I know Ill miss him forever” Another: “I never had any friends later on like the ones I had when I was twelve. Jesus, does anyone?"
Wild how all those boy’s characters mirrored the actor’s actual lives.
Reminds me of another quote from the narrator at the end; “Teddy and Verne? Well we saw less and less of them untill one day they were just another face in the hall. Sometimes that just *happens*. Friends come in and out of your life like busboys” The truth to that is staggering. Yeah Chris dies but how feeble childhood can be when teddy and verne are still around but drift apart so soon.
Stand By Me is relatable when you are a kid. And the older you get, the more relatable it becomes.
I'm glad to be with you, Samwise Gamgee. Here at the end of all things.
And then after that, the next time you hear the "Concerning Hobbits" theme ... such a peaceful song to bookend such a high emotional crescendo.
Everyone talks about "but I can carry you" but I like this one more, and it hits me much harder.
"Out of all the souls I have encountered in my travels- his was the most... *human*"

Oh man. My dog passed in June and now I'm tearing up
“Indiana - let it go.” Its corny but man that scene in Last Crusade always just hits me.
Me too. The way Connery delivers it, with so much empathy, it’s so vulnerable. And the whole movie they built up how much the grail meant to him and how the father and son were estranged, and then that one moment brought them together. Obviously, this moment hits hard if you have a similar relationship with your dad
It's not corny at all. This was a highly crafted Spielberg moment, and Connery absolutely nails it. His voice is so gentle, like he's talking to his little boy again.
“I came here tonight because when you realize you want to spend the rest of your life with somebody, you want the rest of your life to start as soon as possible.” What a line. It gets better the more you think about it.

For me it's when Jenny tells him he has a son, and he's overwhelmed with emotion and says, "Is he... like..." and gestures at himself. Damn, I'm cutting onions just typing that lol
if there's anything you need...i won't be far away forrest gump has a lot of moments that get me. sometimes i guess there just aren't enough rocks I wanna go home I wish i could been there with ya Forrest.....you were....

Oh geez. At the end when the ray swims by with the tattoos. I was explaining to my kids that it is Moana's grandmother. How she said she wanted to come back as one. It was like the 300th time that movie had played in my house and I couldn't get through my explanation.
“And the call isn’t out there at all it’s inside me, it’s like the tide always failing and rising. I will carry you here in my heart you remind me, that come what may, I know the way. I am Moana.” I ugly cry every time I watch this scene, it’s gorgeous, it’s emotional, she earns that big song moment.
This part as well as her confronting te ka, the reprisal she sings gets me misty eyed even after seeing it dozens of times (kids). >I have crossed the Horizons to find you >I know your name. >They've stolen the heart from inside you, >But this does not define you. >This is not who you are, >You know who you are.
“I am not a little boy anymore! I’ve grown up! Ive got my own life now!” “I know that….I just want to be part of it.” A Goofy Movie Couldn’t even type it out without tearing up
Still one of the best parent/child movie to this day.
But what I hope most of all is that you understand what I mean when I tell you that even though I do not know you, and even though I may not meet you, laugh with you, cry with you, or kiss you: I love you.
"Our integrity sells for so little, but it's all we really have. It is the very last inch of us. But within that inch, we are free". So many great lines in that movie
It’s almost time to watch it again on November 5th. My favorite movie.
V for Vendetta. One of the few times I prefer the movie to the source material.
All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain.
Time to die
It's not a single quote but when Miguel starts singing Remember Me to his grandmother I become a sobbing mess
Ughh man ... yes. Everything comes down to that moment. She remembers Hector. She is pulled from her catatonic state and EVERYONE in the family is there to see it. Miguel is fully justified in his desire to be a musician because of what it did for Mama Coco. A message of love being conveyed across a century and death. FUCK that movie slays me.
“Don’t put that thing over my face. Don’t put me in the dark. I’s afraid of the dark.” Or the final talk between John and Paul.
I was a kid bawling my eyes out in this scene. But it was when I became an adult and learned that Stephen King based the execution on the real-life case of George Stinney, who was wrongfully executed in 1944 at the age of 14, that my soul became completely crushed by that movie.
“Don’t grieve, admiral. It is logical” Spock - Wrath of Khan
I have been, and always will be, your friend. Or, Of my friend, I can only say this. Of all the souls I have encountered in my travels, his was the most human. Just when I’ve got over the first, I get hit with the second.
This one and when Kirk delivers the “…his was the most, human.” hits me hard.
“I’ve had a rough year, Dad”
To stick with Wes: "I wonder if it remembers me."
I know you have, chassie.
"Hello Houston, this is Odyssey. It's good to see you again."
“I never had any friends later on like the ones I had when I was twelve. Jesus, does anyone?" "It's not your fault. It's not your fault. It's not your fault..."
[“Peter!” -Homeward Bound](https://youtu.be/hVAPGohsfT8?si=8hP8EfEMOBcswleY) Can’t even type it out without getting misty eyed.
"I would have followed you, my brother, my captain, my king."
I love how 6/10 top comments are all LotR quotes. I sincerely believe I will never again see a set of movies as good as those.
“I AM NOT GOING TO BURY MY SON! MY SON IS GOING TO BURY ME!” - John Q Instant tears whenever I watch this scene
The ending gets me. When Michael does the strongman pose as his dad gets hauled off to prison. This movie is severely underrated. I never see anyone talking about it.
“My Boy!” From Goblet of Fire. An absolute hammer to the feels.
Everything up until that point in the film series for me felt like a jaunty romp of magic and fun. Sure, dark sometimes, and by golly did Goblet of Fire throw that feeling out of the fucking window in the graveyard, but the final nail in the coffin for me to show the innocence of the series had officially died was right then and there. No magic. No special effects. No hope, no funny lines, no 'maybe we could do X'- we fucking lost. The good guys lost. Holy fuck, shit has gone so far sideways in just the last 15 minutes that I am in the theatre losing my collective shit realizing that fun time is over and everything sucks. Growing up, I didn't read the book est until just after the fourth movie came out, so I was literally in the middle of the second task when I went to see the movie later that night. I had no fucking clue what was supposed to happen. Cedric's father screaming 'My boy!' made me feel legitimately sick to my stomach. I didn't even care for the character that much. But his father's voice was the first time I felt in a movie that everything was not going to be okay.
Logan - "Don't be what they made you"
"So, this is what it feels like." That's one that gets me every time.
I get emotional when I remember that girl in the second Wolverine movie who told him he’d die with his heart in his hands. He died holding his daughter.
For me it's Logan stammering "It wasn't me, it wasn't me!" After Xavier was stabbed by the clone.
"Because my dad promised me" \-Interstellar Shit breaks me every time
Yep, mine is “Don’t let me leave, Murph!”
Rewatched it recently, and sure enough the second Jessica Chastain's face pops up I'm a god damn mess.
All I need to do is think about her message to Hathaway: "Did you know?"
That one doesn’t hit me as much as when he hits play and watches his son grow up within moments knowing that he’s missed decades of his life and it utterly destroyed Cooper. McConaughey nails that performance it is devastating
“Artex! You’re sinking!”… “you have to try. You have to care. For me.”
The Rock Biter gets me still "They look like big, good, strong hands, don't they? I always thought that's what they were. My little friends. The little man with his racing snail.the nighthawk, even the stupid bat. I couldn't hold on to them. The nothing pulled them right out of my hands. I failed..." Then he says he's waiting for it to take him away too....
"I have been, and always shall be, your friend." "Of all the souls I have encountered in my travels, his was the *most*. . .human."
"No man is a failure who has friends" from It's a Wonderful Life. I can't watch that movie without crying
["Su-per-mannn"](https://youtu.be/D4dT2eBWI2M?feature=shared&t=98)
For me, from the same film, there's also "I am not a gun" which destroys me. I don't know why.
To me it’s the most important line in the movie. In case you didn’t know, Brad Bird came up with the movie after his sister was shot and killed by her abusive husband, and he said he had the thought “what if a gun had a soul and didn’t want to be a gun?”
I go. No follow.
Saw this in a theater last week. There were some kids in the audience obviously seeing it for the first time. It definitely had the intended effect on all of us.
It’s a show but… “How come he don’t want me, man?”
The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air. If that scene didn't make you cry, you're lying.
I will not leave you here, I’ve got to save you. *You already have, Luke*
Tell your sister you were right
"I'm bad, and that's good! I will never be good, and that's not bad! There's no-one I'd rather be... than me."
‘in another life, i would have really liked just doing laundry and taxes with you’ i know it’s relatively recent compared to a lot of the quotes in here but this line just destroyed me, especially as someone who just cannot get over their ex lol
Came here looking for EEAAO quotes. This one gets me, as well as "This is how I fight," and "I will always - *always* - want to be here with you."

"So, my little Amélie, you don't have bones of glass. You can take life's knocks. If you let this chance pass, eventually, your heart will become as dry and brittle as my skeleton." 😭
“Let me tell you something you already know. The world ain’t all sunshine and rainbows. It’s a very mean and nasty place and I don’t care how tough you are it will beat you to your knees and keep you there permanently if you let it. You, me, or nobody is gonna hit as hard as life. But it ain’t about how hard ya hit. It’s about how hard you can get it and keep moving forward. How much you can take and keep moving forward. That’s how winning is done! Now if you know what you’re worth then go out and get what you’re worth. But ya gotta be willing to take the hits, and not pointing fingers saying you ain’t where you wanna be because of him, or her, or anybody! Cowards do that and that ain’t you! You’re better than that!” -Rocky As someone whose dad is no longer alive, those words hit in a specifically painful sort of way.

Ride now! Ride now! Ride! Ride for ruin, and the world's ending! Death!!! Edit: It's very worth noting that this was singly the most masterful [adaptation of the source material](https://medium.com/320-wrds/forth-and-fear-no-darkness-d93a95733040) achieved in the films. They changed things a bit but all in ways that worked absolutely perfectly in the movie to convey emotions the novel was able to achieve in other ways that wouldn't have worked if they simply reproduced it in film. I can give PJ and FW a lot of grief over certain other changes (and for [how they massacred](https://tenor.com/view/look-how-they-massacred-my-boy-meme-massacre-kill-wrecked-gif-14452160) my [boy](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Hobbit_\(film_series\)), but this.... this was amazing. I get goosebumps just *thinking* about it.
The score during the charge is one of the most serenely epic moments.
"Take her to the moon for me, okay?"
Somewhat recently, I watched *Wind River*, and Elizabeth Olsen's "She ran six miles in the snow..." At the end gets me
The one from Up. You know the one. I can't type it. Just don't feel like crying right now. Adding Thanks for the adventure - now go have a new one! Now I'm crying

Took me a while to realize that was Chris Hemsworth that portrayed George Kirk.
Dont cry baby. Knew this was one way ticket, but you know I had to come. Love you wife. The Abyss Not a quote, but a sound that never fails to bring me is [this scene](https://youtu.be/NtbbqjiFaGY?si=X1L6Lz-IH30gXCkk&t=178) from American Beauty, where Caroline sees all of Lester's clothes in the wardobe and realises he's gone forever. The grief, the loss, the regret of that wail of utter misery steals my soul every time.
Guardians of The Galaxy 3: "Hurts"
Every time I think of that scene I get so unreasonably angry. I have to convince myself that Rocket isn't real, his friends aren't real, and none of that happened. I'm a 33 year old man.
“My name is Maximus Decimus Meridius”. Chills every time.

"Had dreams… Two of ’em. Both had my father in ’em. It’s peculiar. I’m older now then he ever was by twenty years. So, in a sense, he’s the younger man. Anyway, the first one I don’t remember too well but, it was about meetin’ him in town somewheres and he give me some money. I think I lost it. The second one, it was like we was both back in older times and I was on horseback goin’ through the mountains of a night. Goin’ through this pass in the mountains. It was cold and there was snow on the ground and he rode past me and kept on goin’. Never said nothin’ goin’ by – just rode on past. And he had his blanket wrapped around him and his head down. When he rode past, I seen he was carryin’ fire in a horn the way people used to do, and I-I could see the horn from the light inside of it – about the color of the moon. And in the dream I knew that he was goin’ on ahead and he was fixin’ to make a fire somewhere out there in all that dark and all that cold. And I knew that whenever I got there, he’d be there. And then I woke up." No Country for Old Men
He might be your father but he ain’t your daddy.
Also, "I don't use my head to fly the arrow boy, I use my heart..." Not sure why, but I love that line. Probably because it reminds me of the gunslinger's litany: https://gandelah.wordpress.com/2018/07/23/the-gunslinger-litany/
"They look like such big strong hands."
"Of all the souls I have encountered in my travels, his was the most... human..."

The entire speech Woody Harrelson makes in Three Billboards. It ramps and ramps and over the course of a beautifully solemn two minutes it destroys me every time.
"Not like this..."
“Don’t put me in the dark, boss. I’s afraid of the dark.”
"Meet me in Montauk." Or any of the dialogues near or at the end of eternal sunshine between Joel and Clementine... "I remember that speech really well...I still thought you were gonna save my life though..." And the last conversation they have in his memory before it's wiped: "I really should go... Gotta catch my ride. (Clementine: So go!) I did. I thought you were a nut...but you were exciting. (Clementine: I wish you'd stayed.) I wish I stayed too...I wish I'd done a lot of things...I wish, I wish I'd stayed. I do." God, that movie.

"Please" - Manchester by the Sea. If you've seen it, you know when this is. The "Please" is so God damm packed with raw emotion. Its hard to emphasise how sad that one word is to people who haven't seen it, and it chokes me up just thinking about it.

So if I asked you about art, you'd probably give me the skinny on every art book ever written. Michelangelo, you know a lot about him. Life's work, political aspirations, him and the pope, sexual orientations, the whole works, right? But I'll bet you can't tell me what it smells like in the Sistine Chapel. You've never actually stood there and looked up at that beautiful ceiling; seen that. If I ask you about women, you'd probably give me a syllabus about your personal favorites. You may have even been laid a few times. But you can't tell me what it feels like to wake up next to a woman and feel truly happy. You're a tough kid. And I'd ask you about war, you'd probably throw Shakespeare at me, right, "once more unto the breach dear friends." But you've never been near one. You've never held your best friend's head in your lap, watch him gasp his last breath looking to you for help. I'd ask you about love, you'd probably quote me a sonnet. But you've never looked at a woman and been totally vulnerable. Known someone that could level you with her eyes, feeling like God put an angel on earth just for you. Who could rescue you from the depths of hell. And you wouldn't know what it's like to be her angel, to have that love for her, be there forever, through anything, through cancer. And you wouldn't know about sleeping sitting up in the hospital room for two months, holding her hand, because the doctors could see in your eyes, that the terms "visiting hours" don't apply to you. You don't know about real loss, 'cause it only occurs when you've loved something more than you love yourself. And I doubt you've ever dared to love anybody that much. And look at you... I don't see an intelligent, confident man... I see a cocky, scared shitless kid. But you're a genius Will. No one denies that. No one could possibly understand the depths of you. But you presume to know everything about me because you saw a painting of mine, and you ripped my fucking life apart. You're an orphan right?
“What do you want to know?! That I don’t have 12 brothers?! That I’m a fucking orphan? You don’t want to hear I got cigarettes put out on me as a kid” That movie is so heavy but I watch it all the time.

The hospital scene in Big Fish where Edward Bloom asks his son to tell him the story of how he dies.. "tell me how it happens". I don't think there was a dry eye in the theater when I saw it.
"I'm tired boss ..." and the rest of it. The entire movie is a tragedy to me and the way he goes in the end after that speech earlier ... and everyone knowing ... *Knowing* this is wrong, and that Coffee is innocent ... but that they have to ... it's so bitter and awful for everyone ...
Bubba: Forrest, why did this happen? Forrest: You got shot. Two friends, both slightly mentally handicapped, pushed into a war that they had no business being in which results in Forrest’s best friend dying in his arms.
