Guys, want some cathartic tears?

In addition to the EW list of tearjerking little kid movies, there's a list of "guy cry" movies as well. And I gotta agree with most of them. Some are sports movies, some are chick flicks, and they're all pretty accurate.

  1. The Shawshank Redemption
  2. Armageddon
  3. (3-way tie -- "Chick Flicks") Terms of Endearment, Love Story, Steel Magnolias
  4. Field of Dreams
  5. (5-way tie -- "Movies with Dogs") My Dog Skip, Snoopy Come Home, Old Yeller, Where the Red Fern Grows, Marley & Me (film)
  6. Good Will Hunting
  7. Brian's Song
  8. Big Fish
  9. Backdraft
  10. Hoosiers
  11. Saving Private Ryan
  12. Hotel Rwanda
I will say this. I've only seen Big Fish, Hotel Rwanda, and Marley and Me. But those three were cryers, and I totally get why they're on the list.
