I confess, I finally watched "Rudy" last night and it made me cry when he led the Domer team onto the field in the last game of his senior year.
For the record, I also cried when I saw "Old Yeller," but I was six at the time.

I get a little teary eyed anytime I see a show where a child suffers any loss.
Since having children I have become a wuss.

No, that's a good one. I almost squirted a tear when he wasn't able to feed his kids. Please note, I said almost.

How about "Love Story?" Hmmm? The part where she's watching him skate and she tells him its time to go to the hospital.
"Steel Magnolias" after the graveside service, when the grieving mom played by Sally Field goes into her rant about it not being fair Shelby's body wore out?
"Places in the Heart" when Danny Glover's character has to leave the farm after the Klan arseholes beat him up and ordered him to beat it.
"Radio" when he sits out in the rain because he can't ride with the team on the bus to an away game? Or when his mama died?
all very cry-able scenes IMHO.

Sam Baldwin: Well I'm not looking for a mail-order bride! I just want somebody I can have a decent conversation with over dinner. Without it falling down into weepy tears over some movie!
Greg: She's, as you just saw, very emotional.
Sam Baldwin: Although I cried at the end of "the Dirty Dozen."
Greg: Who didn't?
Sam Baldwin: Jim Brown was throwing these hand grenades down these airshafts. And Richard Jaeckel and Lee Marvin
[Begins to cry]
Sam Baldwin: were sitting on top of this armored personnel carrier, dressed up like Nazis...
Greg: [Crying too] Stop, stop!
Sam Baldwin: And Trini Lopez...
Greg: Yes, Trini Lopez!
Sam Baldwin: He busted his neck while they were parachuting down behind the Nazi lines...
Greg: Stop.
Sam Baldwin: And Richard Jaeckel - at the beginning he had on this shiny helmet...
Greg: [Crying harder] Please no more. Oh God! I loved that movie.
on a serious note...Old Yeller is adequate and allowable...Rudy is not. If anything, you should have been crying over how pathetically lame it was :)

I would have to say Dot and the Koala was the last movie I cried during, when I was 5ish. It basically takes the death of family member for me to cry now, so my list is short.

"My Life" - watching a man waste away from cancer while he made videos for his unborn child - I nearly left the theatre because I couldn't handle it. I was seriously, seriously moved by that movie.
I think I was about 18 when that came out, maybe my first hint at mortality.
And of course, Ol' Yeller.
The Passion- it was pretty rough.
Braveheart, Forrest Gump get me choked up. My Life, definitely.
and Saving Private Ryan and Brian's Song damn near got me too

I just adored the little old lady who played the accompaniment whilst I attended the Saturday matinee at our local picture show. Dare I forget to mention the kindly usher who would go up front to make hand puppets if the film broke, until they got if fixed.
I used to hide in the balcony with my boyfriend who would slip yummy exotic substances into my soft drinks during the film once the house lights were dim. We would be careful not to be caught by the elderly matron who stalked the aisles waging a vain, one woman campaign to enforce correct behavior. ;)

When I was a kid, all of the animal movies made me cry: Old Yeller, Red Fern. I still don't understand why they always had to kill off the dog. Now that I'm a mom, any movie where kids lose a parent or vise versa makes me sob.

was 8 when it happened. just plain excited at the time. didn't hit home until later as an adult. they play it on espn classics every so often. getting the history behind the games leading up to the olympics makes it even better, so seeing the HBO special did you good.
