My all time favorite movie - Legends of the Fall (1994)

Dang.. i dont like any of those movies

Yeah those movies moved me too ...... Right out of the theater.

Annie Hall is the a good movie - next the way too unknown Radio Days it is his best in my eyes.


legends of the Legends of the Fall was big amongst my high school friends because you saw Brad Pitt's bum.

I don't really know any of these movies...

I prefer Dumb & Dumber

Do you have a good memory or do you write a diary?

I have a good memory. I really liked Dumb and Dumber.

How can people not have heard of Annie Hall?

yeah i though that was great too. i'll sound really sad here, but i though forest gump was quite moving too.

Forrest Gump & Shawshank Redemption are some of the most moving movies i've ever watched.

The Man from Snowy River.

Wow that was a great movie. :thumbsup

The Movies That Most Moved Me

* A Man For All Seasons (age 9) - A good man stands up for what he believes and sacrifices his life rather than violates his conscience. I found it stirring. I wanted to be good like Sir Thomas Moore.

* The Man From Snowy River (age 16) A wholesome young man conquers the Australian wild and the girl. What I want to be.

* An Officer and a Gentleman (age 16) A bad boy shapes up his life, finds love, success, and commitment. What I want to be.

* Crimes and Misdeameanors (age 25) God has eyes. Never forget that Luke.

* Annie Hall (27) The heartbreak of love lost. I see my good relationships that soured reflected in the film.

* Legends of the Fall (28) A troubled young man goes his own way. He's at times heroic, at times heartbreaking. Loses the woman he loves. Dies in an honorable fight with a bear.

* A Perfect World (37) An honorable criminal, a Christlike character (Kevin Costner) kidnaps a boy from his Jehovah Witness home (reminds me of my sheltered Adventist upbringing) and shows him the beauty of the wider world, and how to be a man, before dying a senseless death.

* Cinema Paradiso (37) A young man inspired by his local movie house, forsakes the love of his life for f success in the big city as a movie director. He has a series of fleeting relationships. Then his mom dies and he comes home and finds the love of his life has married and given birth to a beautiful daughter. See the director's cut.

My all time most moving movies - Legends of the Fall (1994) and Cinema Paradiso 1989, and 2002 director's cut).

My favorite TV shows - Mary Tyler Moore, MASH, Sex in the City, Cheers.

What are the common themes in the movies and TV that move me? That life is good and worth taking seriously. The drive to prove oneself and become a hero. To find and keep love.

thats a great flick.

great movie!
:thumbsup

movies that moved me... lessee-

paris is burning (it's a documentary, does that count?)

field of dreams

i realize that parts in a lot of movies move me, but not necessarily the entire movie - To Wong Foo, Thanks for Everything! Julie Newmar had parts that really got to me.

Deepundercover, i guess this proves how different people's tastes can be - i disliked every movie on your list.

agreed, one flew over the cuckoo's nest is up there also, and the green mile was very good but not quite on a par with those

Porky's

Boomerwang

it's funny how many people i know felt forrest gump was wonderful and how much it moved them... two of my best friends ganged up on me to see it, and i found it to be a calculated effort to work the emotions without the plot or logical followthrough to back it up. i despise it more than almost any movie because it seemed to me to be using people's emotions only to make money.

Dirty Dancing - yeah, that had some great moments

Everyone should see "Glengarry Glen Ross" if you work in this business. :thumbsup

Very Bad Things- kinda like a guide on what not to do in Vegas...


Since seeing it I haven't killed any hookers or security guards and buried them in the desert. I have not killed or maimed any of my friends in a twisted web of intrigue resulting from killing any hookers or security guards and burying them in the desert. In fact, since seeing that movie I haven't had any trouble in Vegas at all.

Well there was that one time where I broke some furniture in the Venetian through some energetic sex, but I never really got close to killing her.

Come to think of it, she was asian and I did bounce her off just about everything in the suite... As far as I know she's still alive....

:1orglaugh whats funny all but one of them i never heard of befor. what movies moved me back in the day was Stand by me, E.T I think I was 7 years old when that came out and and the out siders. Theirs more but i recall to think, havent had my first cup of coffee yet.

Bought the DVD a few weeks ago, maybe watch it tonight.

:1orglaugh :1orglaugh I just fell outta my chair!!:helpme

:1orglaugh :1orglaugh :1orglaugh

Hell, yeah.

When I used to live alone, when I got bored I would put in boiler room. Sometimes watch it 3-4 times a week. Always would get me pumped up.

Showed the movie to my employees on a company retreat a couple years ago. Most were too drunk to get it though. Maybe I will lock them in a room this week and force them to watch it at the office.

okay - 80's girlie child moment here:

I have seen Pretty In Pink maybe 100 times but I still cry at the end. Go with Ducky!

Pay it Forward.. not because of Helen Hunt, but because it was the inspiration of the thinking behind Fight The Patent Foundation.

kind of an odd choice but Carlito's Way with Al Pacino moves me everytime I see it - it's about a bad guy trying to go good & he almost makes it - but... (you have to see it)

ppl do u hear about Russian Movies?
what do u think about it?

*purple rain - ......dude.

*breakfast club - i got my very first boner watching this movie, it was Molly Ringwald that did it...I looked down and there it was...God bless her.

I was very disappointed with The Ring. I didnt find the movie scary at all.:(

never seen one of those.

Excellent fucking movie!! :thumbsup

The Ring?

oh shit

:throwup

Here are some of the movies that gave me a lump in my throat:
Rudy
A Beautiful Mind
Field of Dreams
E.T.
Schindler's List
and the all time Kleenex movie for me was Brian's Song.

One of the best movies of all time in my opinion.:thumbsup

These are excellent movies as well

The movie that freaked me out the most was Candyman. Don't know why.

how could i forget breakfast club?

i just bought the dvd of pretty in pink to replace my video. i didn't find it all that moving, but it's a good flick. recently i watched st elmo's fire and although it's not as good as the hughes flicks, i did actually find myself crying once.

monsters inc. was moving. i wasn't expecting to like it at all, but it is moving and funny and i love the animation and the extras on the dvd.

boy, you have taste.
