"Less Than Zero" when Robert Downey, Jr. goes to see his father for the last time and tries to win his trust back. The dad finally caving in to his son's well being really got to me, ..bad.

Actually the X-Men scene of Erik being separated from his parents, and twisting Auschwitz's metal gates, was very affecting.

Don't really cry at films, the last scene i remember tearing up to was in Paisan though. It was in the second story, doubt there's a Youtube of it, this in spoilers is what i posted about it:

WARNING: "Paisan" spoilers below
The end to this one absolutely crippled me, i was on the verge of tears and i knew it was going to get heavier as there were still four episodes left. All it was was a straightforward troubled orphan tale, the music when he realized as well as him dropping the shoes and more than anything what got to me was how unphased by it the kid seemed. It was a completely different approach to the usual sad, crying orphan child, this kid had accepted what life had given him and he'd adjusted to it which is somehow even sadder especially the way it was depicted.


The last sad scene i watched was the end of Forbidden Games, didn't tear up tho.

The 'ankles' scene in Misery brings a tear to my eye each and every time though from some of the other responses I'm not entirely convinced I've got the spirit of the thread quite right

I haven't actually cried at a movie, but these films got me the closest:

Human Condition III - the last death
My Way - the D-Day death we see in vivid detail
No Country for Old Men - Ed Tom's final monologue (not sure why, though, but it chokes me up every time)
Ikiru - Kanji in his park, singing his song (this is the one that gets me the closest)
Ran - the ending

While I've never actually cried during a movie, here are some things I should mention:

The Fly (1986): My mother let me watch it when I was about 10, I didn't find it scary but damn is it sad! The slow mental and physical deterioration of Brundle gives me a lump in my throat.

Requiem for a Dream: Watching everything that happens to Sara in the last 30 minutes of the film is absolutely heartbreaking. I cannot describe the mental torment I felt when she started moaning while being forcefed.

Mommy (2014) - Ludovico Einaudi, Experience scene:

It summons tears in my eyes every single time I watch it.

I'm not the biggest Pixar fan, I find the vast majority of their work to be over-hyped for no good reason, but even I can't deny that the first 10 minutes of "Up" are superb !

Au Hasard Balthazar and The Fly are amazing answers.

The Fly for the reasons stated.

Au Hasard Balthazar was a mixture of sadness and happiness, never thought i'd empathize with an animal in a movie as much i did there and
WARNING: "au hasard balthazar" spoilers below
it's death brought both feelings of sadness that it was coming to an end and joy because despite all it went through it died peacefully in a field.
Dunno that film got to me way more than it probably should've considering how low-key it is, both journeys are devastating but the donkey definitely gets to me more. Great film.
