Also the end of Boyz 'n the Hood was excellent. The last twenty minutes had me really, really worked up.

I hadn't seen the movie until recently, and was completly blown away by it.

Spoiler:
It's been several years since I've seen it, but that was my understanding of the scene.
Spoiler:
Am I remembering correctly? Even if I'm not, I vividly remember losing control of my composure during that last shot.

In Iphigenia when
I hope this puppy makes it to DVD some day, gotta remember to pick up a box o kleenex at the same time :sniffle:

| Iphigenia finally accepts her fate of certain and immediate death and stops crying and you see in Agamemnon's expression as he looks at her, his first born daughter, the futility but necessity of it all, the knowledge that she will die and the fact that he led her to it |

"The Color of Paradise" -- I rarely cry while watching movies but the scene of Mohammad talking with the carpenter about his own blindness really got to me. Very touching! BTW, it's established from the beginning that Mohammad is blind so no spoiler there.

"Seven", when Brad Pitt gets the box (at the end).
"Sophie's Choice", when Sophie has to choose. You know....
"Edward Scissorhands": when Kim (Winona Ryder) tells Edward to hold her and he says "I can't".
"Anywhere But Here": the ending.
"Regarding Henry", the confrontation between Ford and Bening when he tells her "he knows".
"Marvin's Room", the conversation at the end between Keaton and Streep.
"Kramer vs. Kramer", when Streep tells Hoffman she changed her mind (at the end).
"One True Thing". The whole damn film. Gets me every time.
