I am a bloke but have no trouble blubbing and admitting it. I don't need to prove manliness. I have bollox and a cock. I cry for differing reasons usually when its sentimental, violent, or because the filmaking is just so fucking good I think I failed in life not being able to do that (ie. feeling sorry for myself) Examples? I Cry At Field of Dreams ending, The Ending of Shawshank for example . Thats Sentimental. I Cry ar the killing of Sunshine in Little Bigman or at the Patricia Arquette being beaten up in the Unrated version of True Romance. Thats at violence. More recently I Cried at the end of Ratatouille, because I thought I had just seen movie making masterpiece. Thats envy. Nothing wrong with blubbing. It just means you have let yourself be taken by a film and lost yourself in it. Id rather do this than give a shit that james Cameron wrote Rambo II. For me experiencing the emotion of the film is better than any amount of geek masturbation over factoids a la Tarantino.
