Shadowlands with Anthony Hopkins and Debra Winger, about the life of C S Lewis, got me going when we saw it at the cinema on first release.
I got the hanky out to wipe away the tears and restore my manly composure as the titles rolled, but needn't have worried, because as the lights came up you could see virtually everyone in the audience in floods of tears, and two women in the row in front were sobbing out loud. There was none of the usual rush for the exits as everyone was taking a few moments to pull themselves together before facing the world outside.

The end of Gladiator has got me a few times. I think I cried at "A Millionaire's First Love" too, but can't remember.
Also cried to the end of Chobits, but that was more because of personal reason entwined with the series itself.

The end of Stand By Me, when the narrator reveals the fate of all the charaters and mourns the loss of his childhood.

Gladiator - the bit where he discovers his Wife & Son brutally murdered... & the "I will have my vengeance..." bit... gets me every time...
And Bladerunner (good to see that film mentioned a lot...)
Schindler's List... (Couldn't get some of those scenes out of my head... can't watch it again...)
And (believe it or not) I admit to filling up a bit when Cadel Evans took the TDF trophy- having been proper engrossed in the action this year for the first time... Missus' took the pee out of me for that I can tell ya...

+1 and with this beautiful but haunting song -

tears in abundance.
Can I sign up for the Rutger Hauer appreciation club as well?
His early Dutch films directed by Paul Verhooven (Total Recall) are quality arthouse. Funny how both their careers derailled once Hollywood got involved.
Back to the Thread: The Bridges of Madison County - I wailed tears of desolate anguish, as Clint's character indicates his car is going to turn right, and Meryl's husband indicates he's turning left, and Meryl just sits there, unable to do what she longs with her very soul to do, as she cannot bear to hurt her husband and son.

It may have been urban myth, but I do seem to remember hearing something about a film out there showing the surgery or similar.
Besides, even if there isn't a film, I think it would STILL leave most guys in tears anyway!
It geuinely took all of my strength not to cry at that scene. I would've cried except for the fact my girlfriend wasn't crying at the time, and I didn't want to be the first one to go...

Star Wars: Episode IV (the first one) where Obi Wan turns off his light sabre so Darth can kill him. I got to me deeply when I first saw it when I was 5 or 6 and that feeling has stayed with me ever since.
The end of Armageddon.
The end of The Crying Game.
