**AI, Artificial Intelligence** , and **The Green Mile**. Those are the only two movies made this decade that have brought tears.

For the 90’s: **Shindlers List**.

Another vote for **Grave of the Fireflies**. Not only did it bring tears to my eyes on several occasions but at one point near the end (the montage with Home Sweet Home in the background) I nearly sobbed openly.

I suspect that there are very few people who could watch that film without coming at least close to tears.
