ND '94 ... not that old. Well, not that old to me, that is.
I suppose he still could have seen Old Yeller as a kid on some Saturday movie matinee on an independent channel.

Along those lines, "Cinema Paradiso" ranks high on evoking an emotional response...should be on
everyone's list...IMO.
re: The Champ...Schroder's performance is impressive for someone that young...definitely tugs the heart strings.

Definitely a sad ending, but the end of Saving Private Ryan ranks as #1 for me…
Especially when old Ryan falls to his knees over Capt Miller’s grave stone in Normandy. Chokes me up every time.

Oof. I just watched that. The movie starts & ends in that cemetary. This scene was rough as well...

Nope. Rick Schoder was a D bag and he got everything coming to him.
