I didn't think of this one as a movie till I read the comments. Charm of it is it can get other meanings. Love, daver

I am sure that a good movie deserves a tear or two! A good performance or a great song can produce a similar effect. :) // paul

Thank you, Andrea. Last time we watched a sentimental film at the cinema, this lady walked out at the end, red-eyed and wearing a sheepish smile; that's where the prompt came from. // paul

Thank you for reading and enjoying, Connie. These types of films are intentionally made for a female audience:) They usually generate interest, money, and tears! Regards ~ paul
