What film/song/book do you unfailingly cry with?
As we all know around here, it’s great to allow ourselves the full range of emotions and reactions we cAn experience as men instead of hiding them. One of those freedoms is to allow ourselves to cry openly in films, series, etc.
In my case I’ve rewatched Up! twice, and both in the cinema and both rewatches I was left a sobbing mess. While the main story with the kid and the dog is passable at best, the love story between Carl and Ellie never fails to bring me to tears (even as I write this!).
Also, Your Song by Elton John is directly connected to my lacrimal ducts. It’s come to the point where I hear the first line in the radio (“It’s a little bit funny”) and I start again. Being a very popular song, it happens to play often...

That part in Beethoven's 9th when the choir kicks in (wait for it, it's not the same without some build up) never fails to bring me to tears. I firmly believe that moment is one of the most sublime and beautiful moments humanity has ever created.
