Did You Cry?
 

I would just like to know how many people cried at the end of Field of Dreams.
Also was I the only one that cried during The War(1994, Kevin Costner, Elijah Wood)?

I already removed the other.

As you were . . .

Why didn't you just ask this in the Baseball Movies thread you started?

I wanted to and then forgot.:)

Thank You

Yeah, I was tempted to merge, but didn't.

Would you like to ask this question there, and I'll toss this one, too?

That is alright but thank you anyways.

I think most of the scenes I cry at during Field of Dreams involve Burt Lancaster, especially the one where he crosses the baseline. Otherwise, I find the ending of Field of Dreams a little too similar to that of The Natural, another movie I blubber like a baby at.

No tears here.

No, does that mean I have no soul? :confused:

I've never seen it all the way through. So, no.

It's not a movie I hold in high esteem.

Ditto, plus Kevin Costner kind of pisses me off. If I watch him, I'll end up ruining my TV screen with non-perishables.

I cried too T____T it was really sad that I just couldn't stop crying....:(

There's no crying in baseball!!!

What was so sad about a line of cars driving out to the farm? :)

Field Of Dreams does not make me cry.

I think the only Costner films that do are Dances With Wolves and A Perfect World.

Lots of folks like Dances with Wolves--probably most of the folks in this forum. But it generally makes me cuss when I see all of the distortion of historial fact and the physically impossible plot ploys in that film. Its one saving feature as far as I'm concerned is the actress who plays the captive white woman--looked a lot like a lady I used to know.

Well, obviously, that isn't the moment at the end that makes people cry. If you are someone that feels nostalgic toward your father or you are sensitive to Kinsella's (Costner) reaction to seeing him and asking him to "have a catch," that would be the moment that some people cry.

I'm sure you know that, though.

And as much as I cry at movies, and as much as I absolutely adore this movie, I don't cry at the end. I get a lump in my throat when Moonlight Graham (the great Burt Lancaster) steps across the threshold and back to his older self. I also get a lump in my throat when he describes what it is like to have your dreams "brush past you...." earlier in the film. I love Moonlight Graham. He's my favorite character.

He also has some of the best lines. :)

What looks like brown but gold comes out

The first post was about crying at the end of Field of Dreams.

And this isn't a riddle thread.
