Best if the old movie is made before 1990
It’s a Wonderful Life, every time
Grave of the Fireflies is a good one and has been mentioned a few times already.
Fox and the Hound has several tear jerker moments, though most memorable for me is when Todd is returned to the forest.
Land Before Time was my first parent death in a film that I can remember. And unlike Bambi, this movie shows more of the consequences of losing a mother at that young of an age.
Star Trek II: Wrath of Khan always makes me cry. The death of Spock, the exchange between him and Kirk, it always kills me.

Shawshank Redemption
- Don’t mind me turning to dust in my chair.
Lord of the Rings - The Return of the King. It’s been 22 years since release …
That is not an old movie. It’s not a recent movie, but it’s not an old movie.
22 years is old.
It’s relative.
Debatable. There are adults who weren’t even born back then.
Almost none of these are old movies

Oh, don’t be coy. We can already smell the soil on you.
Old Yeller
If that movie doesn’t get you to shed a tear, you’re not human.
I’m a pretty hard-boiled tough guy by most standards, and I’m getting a little misty just thinking about it.
Dead Poets Society (1989)
Powerful ending, just excellent.
No idea if it holds up in the current era.
Great film. I hate to call it old. Even though I realize it is now.
I think it holds up. But I’m biased because it’s on my top 5 movies of all time.
All Dogs Go To Heaven.
1989
2010 (Space Odyssey 2).
Don’t cry, it’s only thunder.
Grave of the fireflies.
Blade runner.
Schindler’s List
It is a cinematic triumph and a film that everyone should see. With that said, I am unable to ever view it again. The scene where Schindler is breaking down realizing that if he didn’t have expensive items he could have saved more people just absolutely killed me.
That plus the descendants of those he saved placing stones on his grave
Life Is Beautiful
Came here to add this.
Definitely better to watch with subtitles.
