The Most Moving Film Is?

Rob F (06.06)

I would say Dancer in the Dark, Dir: Lars von Trier.
I watched it with a male friend and as the credits rolled we both had tears
in our eyes. I can't say that's happened before.
Paris, Texas is pretty moving too.

Stan D (08.05)

Surely "The Bicycle Thief" is among the most moving films in the history of
cinema. The Argentinean film from the 1980s "The Official Story"... is also quite
devastating. In the French film, "Manon of the Spring" the scene where Yves
Montand sits on a bench [and realises what he realises]... is among the greatest and most moving moments in
film.
 
All these examples share a characteristic which is usually foreign to
American films, that is, the emotional impact is more chosen by the viewer
than imposed by the film.

Ryan (10.04)

It's all a matter of opinion, but I'm inclined to suggest either 'Life Is Beatiful/ La Vita E Bella' or Jean Pierre Jeunet's 'Amelie' as the 2 films that have moved me most.

Roderick Leyland (7.04):

The first part of 'The Black Stallion' where the boy is alone on the island with his horse is memorable. The boy says little; there is just the relationship between the two and with nature.

Martin W (15.9.03) most moving film: Amateur, by Hal Hartley. Closely followed by Wim Wenders' Der Himmel Uber Berlin and Zelig by Woody Allen.

Henry R.S. (14.9.03) Well if you mean what movies make me cry: 'End Of The Affair', 'Truly Madly Deeply', 'What Dreams May Come' and 'Waking The Dead' oh and 'It's a Wonderful Life'.
But if you mean which films affected me most I'd have to list my Top Ten
Movies:
The Big Sleep, Don't Look Now, Star Wars IV: A New Hope, Top Gun, Kind
Hearts And Coronets, Once Upon A time In America, Robocop, Beyond The Valley Of The Dolls, Scream, and Chasing Amy.

Enric Cuéllar (4.9.03) I cannot decide between Takeshi Kitano's Dolls (a very very very painful film about broken love stories) and Spike Lee's The 25th Hour.

Charlotte (6.03) Festen. Starts off so dry and stuffy, ends up being this tender story of love, grief, loss, etc.

Philip (6.03) that would have to be Saturday Night Fever.....such a pleasant relief from thinking.....

Derek (6.03) 'The Pawnbroker' with Rod Steiger - cannot forget the moment where the Jewish pawnbroker, his family destroyed by wartime persecution, harrassed
now by smalltime gangsters, deliberately impales his hand on the spike on his counter

Zoe (4.03): 'Ordinary People' (1971) directed by Robert Redford.

Paola, Italy (4.03): IN THE MOOD FOR LOVE by Wong Kar-Wai. One of many movies about impossible love, but this is much more intense than others: nothing happens, nothing happens, nothing happens, and in the end you're open-mouthed with the beauty of these two hours of nothing happening. Also Takeshi Kitano's BROTHER's final scene, where he goes out of the bar to meet his killers.

Anon (3.03): Film: The dignity of Elizabeth at the end of Elizabeth is impressive. Thebattering scene in Cabaret jars every time.

M.J. (1.03): As for films - this is going to sound really head-up-arse but Truffaut's Jules & Jim. It just is, OK.

C.S. (1.03): The mexican movie Amores Perros (Love's a Bitch)
by Alejandro González Iñárritu.
