Years ago they aired movies at night and I loved being in bed watching them. One Night they had on the Movie "Sentimental Journey" with John Payne and Maureen O'hara. It was the most heart touching movie I had ever seen. I cried most of the time it was on. So of course I couldn't go to sleep after seeing it,so I watched the next movie that came on after it. The movies was called "The Gift of Love." with Robert Stack and Lauren Bacall. Little did I know until I started watching it that it was a remake of Sentimental Journey,so I cried all over again. What was the most touching movie you have ever watched ?

I remember the movie "The Gift of Love"; my mom watched it when I was a little kid but I was able to understand most of it. It was quite moving. When you mentioned Robert Stack and Lauren Bacall it jogged my memory.
 
The Heart Is A Lonely Hunter.

I saw it at a theater, when it first came out, in '68. I was so saddened by it, that I asked the gal whom I took to see it, if there was any way she could stay the night, to keep me from going off the deep end. She called her mom, and told her she was staying at a girlfriend's house. My mom was out of town, so things worked out very well. Ah, to be sixteen, again! (The same thing happened when I took this other gal to see Voyage of the Damned ('76), with the same results. Ah, to be twenty-four, again!)

You really were a romantic little devil !💞💞
 
McCuller examines the spiritual dilemma of men, as does O’conner, and

Faulkner. They use the grotesque to exhibit our pettiness, our inability to grapple with
our personal lives; yet, we feel endowed to resolve the problems of those with locked mines. (I wrote mines rather than minds as it gives you a touchstone to the subterranean
aspect of our lives).

We are a mess…
 
Maybe 5 or so years ago, my grandkids watched “Old Yeller.” That may have been a tear jerker. My granddaughter did cry a bit.

I sat there and watched it, well, sort of, I kind of dozed in and out, but I got the gist of it.

I cried through What Dreams May Come. Robin Williams was the star in that one. My daughter took me to the theater to see M Night Shamalan's Lady In the Water and I bawled all the way through that one too. The movie got lousy reviews but the innocence depicted in it got to me.
 
"Remains of the Day" with Anthony Hopkins and Emma Thompson.
Hopkins' character was so dedicated to his job he couldn't see what was right in front of him.......he missed his chance with Thompson's character twice. Didn't notice what a swine his employer was either.......

I think the thrust is:, The butler (Hopkins) has a locked heart, not allowed to love, only as an much older man Hopkins allow himself to
unlock some of his emotion regarding Emma, then the quest for long-lost love, who remembers his character armor, but there is still a
felling there. Her current husband makes any involvement impossible.
Indeed, the author wrote a haunt...

I am not allowed to mention that movie in our house because Janet cannot even think about it without going into a deep, deep funk.
