Ten Movies It's Okay For Guys To Cry At

E.T.: The Extraterrestrial
Shadowlands
Saving Private Ryan
Moulin Rouge
Titanic
Batman Begins
The Iron Giant
Babe
The Lord of the Rings
Good Night, and Good Luck

Blogger's Note: Most of these I get, but, Batman Begins? I really dig the film but I didn't exactly find it to be a tear-jerker. My personal pick is Big Fish. When he's carrying his dad to the river where everyone has come to see him off, I lose it everytime.

Big Fish was my pick too! It gets me everytime.

As for Batman Begins, I don't tear up at the end because my adrenaline is pumping. However, when young Bruce turns to Alfred and says with tears in his eyes, "Alfred, it's my fault. It's my fault they are dead." I do find myself misty eyed...

Moulin Rouge? A guy would watch that to begin with....

And what about Braveheart?
Field of Dreams?
