Can't believe no one has mentioned Steel Magnolias. Always and ugly cry. Always.
Other than that, way too many to list. I cry at commercials for goodness sake.

Watching any performance or presentation my kid is in, or any of the year end slide shows the elementary teachers always make. It always blows me away how much older my kid looks at the end of a school year compared to the first day of the school year.
Interestingly enough, I never cried over anything before my kid was born. Not wedding, funerals, graduations, sad movies, tear jerker commercials, nothing.

I have a very hard time when women lose their husbands. Real life, fictional. Movie, tv, books. It's all the same.

This is me too -- waaay too many to list. I cry or at least tear up at the drop of a hat, LOL. When we were on vacation years ago and touring lots of beautiful churches and cathedrals, my kids would look at my eyes the minute we walked inside of them so they'd be the first to see when I started the tears...was especially strong if there was music, or someone even playing live organ music. (That's just one example. )

Definitely Steel Magnolias and also the episode of ER when Mark Greene dies as the song "Somewhere Over the Rainbow" plays.

Watching Avengers End Game. Infinity War and Spider-Man 😭 Anyone who doesn’t cry during the scene between Spider-Man/Peter Parker and Tony Stark/Ironman after Thanos snaps his fingers doesn’t have a heart. 😭 😝

I was on insulin when I was pregnant and had a bad episode of hypoglycemia (actually, many) but the first time I remember I refused to drink any juice and basically acted just like her. Fortunately, he had had plenty of good teaching from the nurses! And he got me to drink the juice. Yes, that one is a tear jerker for sure.

I’m a human marshmallow so pretty much anything having to do with any person being lost, taken advantage of, hurt, abused or killed. We don’t watch many dramatic movies - they take emotional preparation on my part!

Old soldiers wearing their medals and standing to attention. I watch the Remembrance Day ceremony at the Cenotaph every year and bawl my eyes out. There are also two songs that always make me cry: Romeo and Juliet by Dire Straits, and Evermore by Neil Diamond. I play them both when I’m feeling sorry for myself. GREAT SONG.

Mine is so silly and it really caught me off guard when I saw it in the theater - the ending of A Dolphin Tale. When they go to real footage of amputees visiting Winter and swimming with her I cried so hard because she is so amazing. I have seen it a few times since and the same thing happens. Right now my eyes are welling up thinking about it.

Military homecoming videos Listening to Lee Greenwood's "God Bless the USA". ETA: I'm not a cryer but tears may well and my heart swells with pride.
I also love when Andy Garcia turns up at Meg Ryan's AA speech at the end of When a Man Loves a Woman. That touched me and actually was crying. I was pretty young and it surprised me. I guess I was so glad that there was hope after all that work she put in for a second chance. Also the dynamics between Jennifer Aniston and Vince Vaughn in The Break-Up choked me up the first time I watched. It really had a lot of parallels with my xdh and I. Well men and women in general, I think.

Watching "Paul O'Grady for the Love of Dogs", even the reruns. Mostly happy tears to see the dogs find their forever home. Last week I was watching "Pit Bulls and Parolees" and didn't even notice I was crying until a tear ran down my face. I'm a big sap when it comes to dogs.

I watched three episodes of Ricky Gervais' After Life last night, and was teary for the whole 1.5 hours. It got to 11:30pm and had to watch an episode of Schitt's Creek to cheer myself up before going to bed. The song 'I Was Only 19', especially on Anzac Day and followed by The Ode of Remembrance and The Last Post. (These ones came to mind because it was Anzac Day on Sunday.) Steve Irwin's funeral, especially when John Williamson sings 'Hey True Blue'. This Beautiful Life movie. OMG. I remember watching it with DD and when she realised what was happening at the end she gasped and sobbed. Nappy (diaper) commercials for goodness sake!! It took a couple days for me to stop over Princess Diana and her motherless boys, though in my defense I was pregnant and emotional... My BFF and I were both pregnant when Princess Di died, too. I distinctly remember ringing her to talk about it when we heard the news. I didn't cry then, but certainly got teary when I saw the boys walking behind the casket at the funeral. Military homecoming videos with pets. 100000% full tears, especially with the cheesiest music overlayed. Yeah same, but not the animal ones. It's the ones with kids that get me. And the music has to be cheesy!

I cry at everything. For example. when * I see an ambulance with sirens on or funeral procession on the road * Cedric Diggory's father cries "that's my boy" in Harry Potter * Michael proposes to Holly on The Office * When the woman would give birth on "A Baby Story" back when that was on. * Also at the end of It's a Wonderful Life" * I hear the song "Wagon Wheel". It was a favorite of my mom in her later years and my nephew would play it on his acoustic guitar at family gatherings for her.
DD is just like me in this respect. We're quite a site when we watch something together. She is graduating with her nursing BSN this month and saw her first delivery on her OB/peds clinical rotation last semester. She told me she was trying so hard not to cry when the baby was actually born but was so moved by the whole thing,

It didn’t help that my response was “It’s so beautiful!!!” said with hiccuping sobs. I realize I have a problem.

I am a crier, songs, movies, television shows, books, commercials and thinking about loved ones. Fried Green Tomatoes and Terms Of Endearment really bring on the full sobbing, crying can't talk etc. The Nightingale and The One Hundred Years Of Lenni and Margot books. While my mom was going through chemo and radiation I had a CD that of songs I loved on it I played in my car and ELO Hold On Tight (to your dreams) came on and when it was over she made me replay it and I can't listen to that song without crying then or now.

I can’t even talk about Hachi-A Dog’s Tale. I cannot discuss it out loud! I cried for three days after watching it and I could still kick myself in the butt for watching. I’ll never get over it!
Taps. Every single time.

Taps
I'm another that cries every.single.time I see footage of Princess Diana's funeral procession. Any part of her funeral too, or footage of the car accident will get my teary, but I lose it every time I see the boys walking behind her casket. Breaks my heart.
Ever since I lost my dad 2 years ago, any mentions in books, movie or tv about people losing dads, or parents in general (I think I notice it more when it's Dad's) make me lose it. I have cried during several episodes of Real Housewives of NJ this season. Never thought I'd say that!

There is this Youtube video of an African man who participated in the Olympics in the 60's. I believe he was the first, og one of the first, to ever represent his country. He ran the marathon. During the race he dislocated his knee but was adamant to finish. He limped and got helped to finish. 3-4 hours after the other runners had finished, he is finally approaching the stadium. The audience are the to watch the medal ceremony, and starts cheering like crazy for him when he enters the stadium.
I swear, I have no interest in sports, but these achievements in sports get me. Not being the fastest man alive or whatever, but the willpower, the trainging behind it, the glory for one's country... There is just something about that human spirit.
Go to Youtube and search for 'Akhwari Olympic miracle'
