I'll go first

Maudie.

True story about a Canadian artist.

There's a heartbreaking scene in that film that cracked me. Although most of it is very sad anyway.

I was at a low point myself when I watched James Bond No Time to Die. They killed off Felix and then Bond sacrificed himself at the end.

Avengers End game when Captain America went back and stayed in the past to spend his life with Peggy Carter.

Boy in the striped pyjamas - read the book and saw the film, both once as it’s too upsetting to go through that again.

Cinema Paradiso - to lose someone who’s guided you through life and then leaves you a beautiful gift, bloody wet eyes every time I watch that film.

My cat had died a few days before I saw the film for the first time.

I blubbed because it was still very raw. Perhaps not the best film to see at the time but it was on TV so watched it.

I avoid it now as I know what it will do to me even years later.

The only one I've ever cried at years ago was weirdly Casper the Friendly Ghost.

His mum was dead and living with other family he hated. I could relate to that as a child. He then gave up having her in his life again (post resurrection) for a friend so she could get her dad back.
