I counted 9 films. To the one already present on my Top 5. I could add: Au hasard Bathalzar, Two English Girls, Mouchette and In the Mood for Love,

Nice. I really like that poll of yours. It's a shame the discussion thread has disappeared, would have been fun to read the comments. :)

Some movies like 'Schindler's List', 'Grave of the Fireflies', 'Up', or 'The Lion King', 'When the Wind Blows', but also movies like 'Desert Flower', 'Forrest Gump', 'The Green Mile', 'The Boy in the Striped Pajamas', 'A Star is Born', 'Hachiko', 'Requiem for a Dream', '12 Years A Slave', 'The Kings Speech', 'The Artist', ...

@Jessica ,

If you count having your eyes misting up as crying:

100+: Countless movies have made me cry.
The list of films are way to long to list.

I guess as long as you produce tears it counts as crying, even if they don't always fall down your cheek.

Interesting to see everyone's replies. I know it can be hard to determine the exact amount, especially if it's more than a few. 

I'm so intrigued by this that some years ago I started keeping a list of movies that make me cry, but there might still be a few I have missed. It's a long list. :)

As far as I remember:

Toy Story 3 (the goodbye)

Coco (Coco's farewell)

Inside Out (Bing Bong sacrifice)

Juno (I was experiencing an unrequited love at the time, so Michael Cera's getting the girl he loved was emotional)

Avengers: Endgame (Tony Stark sacrifice)

There may be more, but those are the ones I remember.

Thanks for sharing. Toy Story 3, Coco and Inside Out - definitely the same for me.

@Jessica​ That's right, that was Eponine song. Good to see that my list is pretty consistent.

Quite a few have brought tears to my eyes. One that never fails is the end of It's A Wonderful Life.

If one can have tears about sad or even happy endings, he/she/* is still living and somehow well.

I especially like the "happy" endings, which make me cry, like "The Kings Speech". It was nice to hear the king having a speech in which he was so focused to tell it in a way the people were united. That moment was somehow very positive, even though the background of the story was about historic necessarities. The moment the king held the speech, it was uplifting for England and its citizens.

Good one! And, of course, I love that one of the photos is Moonee from The Florida Project. : )    

Actually, I really wanted to vote for that option, even though at that moment I didn't think that was the most accurate for me, just because the accompanying image is that character and that scene, lol. And that movie, particularly that scene, wow, definitely made me cry every time I've seen it.

Thanks. Yeah I just wanted to pick images of crying faces and yes, that scene with Moonee made me cry a lot too. In fact, all the images in the list are from movies that made me cry. :)

It will be interesting to see how many (if any) votes the last option gets.
