For the second time this week I've watched something that was really good BUT at the same time was sooo hard to watch! I cried, alot, again. More specifically I held my breath, grabbed my chest, and then cried uncontrollably!
If you ladies haven't seen the movie "The Impossible" I HIGHLY recommend it! As a mom it was terrifying but SO incredibly moving! It's definitely made me appreciate my tranquil life & family, that's for sure!
Have any other bee's seen it? They have it at Redbox!

DH and I watched it and we both teared up multiple times!! It really was so moving, especially to know that it was based on true events. As new parents I couldn't imagine something like that happening!

I've never watched it, but sometimes I like to watch stuff like that. It feels cleansing.

I watched just the trailer for that really early in my pregnancy (ie crazy hormones)... I was like, losing it in the theater. I'm not sure I can watch it yet but it looked really good and really well done.
@Boogs: I know what you mean-- sometimes a good cry over something ultimately silly (a movie or TV show) feels really good.

I've been meaning to see this; perhaps I'll rent it this week!
I had a similar reaction to "Dear Zachary". Holy hell, I have *never* had a more intense response to a film, in my life. I was literally shaking. I am so thankful I didn't watch it while pregnant; it's an absolute killer.

@petunia354: They're story really is amazing & since the mother helped in the production I think it stayed really true to it! The deleted scenes were just as moving!
@Boogs: It definitely made me take a real look as how our lives our & be more appreciative! Very sobering, and yes a good cry ALWAYS feels refreshing! What stinks is I think I could easily cry another day before all of it was "out". *emotional mess* lol
@Foodnerd81: It really is an amazing movie, they did a FANTASTIC job on it so when you feel ready you should definitely see it!
@birdofafeather: I've cried 3 times today just thinking about it! I was telling another friend though I'm the one that can't watch the news (mom couldn't watch it when I was little) b/c I cry for the hurting people! That's part of the reason we don't have cable & I follow tragic things that happen through places like here! I would be a mess if I tried watching that stuff in my house! I'm really surprised it didn't win any awards though, I think it's probably one of the best films I've ever seen!
@deerylou: Never heard of Dear Zachary... I may have to look into it! I don't know if I'm up for more crying right now though! Lol

@runsyellowlites: Oh, I definitely recommend it - might still be on Netflix Instant, actually. But be prepared to be messed up.

@runsyellowlites: And then you come here and do it to us! 
I tried to watch Bully today and was only able to watch 10 minutes before I started crying and had to turn it off. Perhaps I'll watch it in 10-minute increments a day until I finish it.
@deerylou: Dear Zachary: so many tears.

@mrsjazz: Yep! I had to share my tears! I can't be a blubbering mess all by myself! Lol. The movie is really good though! It's worth the tears.

@deerylou: I will not watch that movie. A friend summarized it for me, that's enough for me.
