I used to not like men who cried, thought it was kinda “weak,” you know. But once a friend of mine and I watched “Life is Beautiful” and he started crying pretty hard at the part when Roberto Begnini (sp?) talks to his wife over the pa system at the concentration camp. I fell in love with him right then, until the end of the movie, and I’ve always found crying to be a somewhat charming thing after then.
