People Are Sharing The Movies That Make Them Cry Without Fail, And I Didn't See All Of These Coming

"Literally from the beginning credits [of My Girl], she starts crying because she remembers the ending."

It doesn't shock me that Reddit user u/Spirited_Lemon420 received a lot of responses when they asked, "What film makes you cry every time?" Movies can be very tearworthy, but some of the responses surprised me.
