What Dreams May Come

What Dreams May Come

This movie is breathtakingly beautiful both visually and story-wise. I can’t count how many times I’ve seen it but every time I do I cry nearly the whole time. It crushes my heart to pieces, builds it back up, then makes it feel like it’s going to swell and burst out of my chest by the end of the movie. It’s a bit of an emotional roller coaster but just incredibly beautiful.

Up

Up

My husband and I had just suffered a pregnancy loss after years of infertility. We decided to take a mental break and went to see Up, thinking it would help us forget about the pain for a bit. Well, I think we can all imagine how well that went. We’re happy to say, though, that our dream of being parents came true not too long ago. Here’s to new adventures!

Armageddon

Armageddon

Armageddon is so underrated. It’s so captivating and easy to imagine yourself in their situation and feel their emotions when Bruce Willis and the crew are leaving and don’t know if they’ll see their loved ones, or even Earth, ever again.

I can’t get past the beginning when the family is leaving their animals at the farm, and the little boy is saying goodbye to his golden retriever and the dog doesn’t understand what’s happening. It kills me.

Moulin Rouge!

Moulin Rouge!

The first sentence of the movie tells you Satine is going to die but I always hope for a different outcome every time. The film shows life is short and you should always follow your heart.

The Green Mile

The Green Mile

The Green Mile. The tears start when John Coffey gets to watch the “flicker show” but I lose my damn mind when they start to put the hood on him and he says he’s scared of the dark. I sob uncontrollably like my mother just died, every single time

Inside Out

Inside Out

Inside Out gets me ugly crying every. Single. Time. I had a very similar move like Riley when I was younger, and that wonderful cartoon displays the emotions so accurately. Also, Bing Bong. ‘Nuff said.

I cry from start to FINISH. Well, all of it except “You’re Welcome” and “Shiny.” Moana’s journey and inner conflict about her destiny is painfully relatable. Also, her grandma’s ghost manta ray fucks. me. UP.
