Movies & TV That Make Us Cry

This page doesn’t cross-list all my various posts about movies and television (which you can find by using the “Categories” on the right side of the main page). Rather it’s intended to highlight the beautiful works that I’ve featured here, especially film or television that makes us cry, or that examines the experience of crying, or that at least makes us cringe. (I know, sometimes they are even funny.) If you have more suggestions, please send them my way, and I’ll add them to this list. What movies or TV shows have made you cry? Or evoked powerful emotions?
