Life is Beautiful is in the verge-of-tears category for me, as is Finding Neverland and Billy Elliot (which also started my unhealthy fixation with T.Rex). Both Edward Scissorhands and Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind were profoundly sad, I thought.

Land Before Time and E.T. probably should not be shown to children because of their highly traumatizing nature.

I'm glad that we're all getting Dr. Phil on each other here. C'mon. Show me the tears...
