I think that the reason war films at often times "get" to people is because they make them think. They make you think about life and the harsh transitions you sometimes have to make. War films are an excellent way of depicting the rivalries that, although are somewhat hidden, still exist along with prejudice and hatred. I don't see how anyone wouldn't be moved because of these causes...

That's quite true, Mena. People don't usually like to encounter changes that'll end up inevitably for the worse. Losing a loved one, living in fear all the time, the hatred involved...it's all just too much stress for one to handle, which is probably why war movies are and always will be a quite popular choice among filmmakers. They want to bring this possibility to people and show them and, like you said, make them think.

Oh, and... the Crucible movie was sad too. My eyes were all watery at the end...>.<;;

Omg, this movie...ugh don't talk to me about this movie. It's on my list of "Most Hated Movies Ever". It really pissed me off...I swear, after seeing this film I was in a terrible mood.

Wasn't the thing out in the theater longer than most movies? My mom bought the tape when it came out, I bet if she was able to she would've seen the movies many more times. I was dragged to see it with the rest of my family.

I believe so. But I feel sorry that you were dragged to go see it. Must've annoyed you, huh?

I just remembered a film that I tried to hold back my tears and did a semi-successful job...the movie is "Armageddon". Omg...this movie is so sad. When Liv Tyler was saying good-bye to Bruce Willis and all....man, all the girls in the theaters were sniffling, but I wanted to actually bawl.
