Best if the old movie is made before 1990
Bicentennial Man
After the Promise 1987
Escape from Sobibor 1987
Dang '87 was a tear jerker fest in my timeline.
Just saw Elephant Man at the Music Box Theatre. Incredibly moving film if you haven’t seen it. They’re currently running a film series on David Lynch and that was the first of his films I had ever seen. Planning to see more this week if I can!
Nice! Welcome to the world of Lynch! Hope you enjoy them. Have you seen Twin Peaks?
It’s a Wonderful Life, every time
Several plot points in that film are absolutely horrifying like the shopkeeper deafening him as a child
He was deafened by an ear infection after diving into a frozen pond to save his brother from drowning. Later he prevented Mr. Gower from accidentally poisoning a child when Gower was distracted by grief. I do believe Gower hit him during that sequence though, if that’s what you’re referring to. And yeah that last part is rough but sometimes life and history are unpleasant.
Ah yeah that was it. Has been a while!
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.
Two decades is old. An 80s movie in the year 2000 was old.
I don’t agree. I watched tons of movies from the '80s in the 2000s and I didn’t really think of them as old. Certainly not recent, but not old old.
A 22 year old movie in the year 2000 would be from 1978, it’s a 70s movie!
Roughly the same gap between Star Wars: A New Hope coming out and Y2K happening.
Even talking about Y2K and AOL floppy disks sounds old and once again is roughly the same time span to today.
Debatable. There are adults who weren’t even born back then.
Almost none of these are old movies
The Lion King (1994)
Oh, that’s been a bad one on REwatch after the most recent passing of one of its stars. It’s so much more sad, now.

An Affair to Remember (1957) Yes I did watch it because it is referenced in Sleepless in Seattle and yes I did blubber cry just like the SiS characters suggested.
The Wizard of Oz. Such a good movie!
Here Comes Mr. Jordan (1941)
E. T.
Honorable mention: The Neverending Story. Cried during one scene in the movie, not the end.
Artax :_(
Wuthering Heights (1939)
Is 16 years old? If so Summer Wars for some reason
Batteries Not Included
Almost every Charlie Chaplin’s movie.
This mashup is great. i cri evrytim
Yes, and that speech is even now important. Chaplin was a great man.
It’s really incredible how timely it is 100 fucking years later.
