Of those listed that I’ve seen, I’d have to say Steel Magnolias is the top tear-jerker. I don’t know how many times I’ve seen that movie, and I always cry at the same places. You’ve got to see that movie. – there are some great quotable lines by an ensemble cast. (And it’s filmed in Louisiana, my home state!)

You really are a recovering Baptist, aren’t you?
