When someone is either unexpectedly nice or unnecessarily cruel to a kid. Different responses, but emotional for sure.

Oooh ... and that Budweiser commercial, with the Clydesdales coming across the bridge into NYC and looking at the skyline and bowing to the empty hole where the WTC used to be. Damn, I'm just thinking about it and I'm getting teary. Seriously.

Oh, hell. I watched it all the way through and I'm bawling.

regular.joe 11-24-2011 12:19 PM

I can't find it on YouTube, but there was an advert for some kind of British meat (beef possibly?) that featured an old couple. No speech. It showed them sharing very simple pleasures - at the seasdide in the rain under a shelter, dancing a little and then they went home into a small house and she cooked a joint of meat.
When she served it they looked at eachother and he touched her hand as if to say, "This is all I've ever wanted, thank you."

I blubbed every time.

Adverts make me aware of products on the market, but I'm not sure many of them make me want to buy.
The good ones can move me though.

I can also get over-emotional at sports montages.

Below is the BBC montage for the Los Angeles Olympics.
This was "my" Olympics. We had a video recorder and could watch events later at a reasonable time.
I'm so happy for the (older) children in my school who will have "their" Olympics in their own timezone.
'scuse the quality. It was '84

At the end of "Dances With Wolves", when Wind In His Hair is atop the ridge yelling at the top of his lungs for you to see that he is Dances With Wolves' friend...for some reason that scene gets me everytime.

Also, I have yet to make it through Johnny Cash's version of Nine Inch Nails' "Hurt", by the second chorus I'm all leaky.

Two for two Grav.
