Emotional Movie Scenes

I don't cry at many movies. Certainly not most love stories, and pure tragedies are too predictable o dramatic to invoke that kind of emotion. There are a handful of movie scenes, though, that absolutely get to me every time I watch them. Here are my top 5 emotional movie scenes, with links to videos if I can find them:

WARNING! THESE ARE PROBABLY SPOILERS!

5. Pay it Forward - Funeral Scene

4. Dead Man Walking - Execution Scene

3. Shawshank Redemption - Brooks Was Here

2. American History X - Danny's Death

1. Schindler's List - End

Honorable Mention:

• Saving Private Ryan - Gravesite Scene
• Requiem for a Dream - Ending Montage

Most of these are about death, as you can tell. There are plenty of emotional scenes out there that don't revolve around death, like the breakthrough scene in Good Will Hunting, but admittedly they don't get to me the same way.
