Probably weep. I'm thinking it's looking to be a three, four box of kleenex movie.
Oh shit. I'll wait for dvd. I HATE crying in public.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I have a four-day weekend coming up, and no money to go anywhere. What can I do that's free and doesn't involve sitting on my ass at home?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Staten Island ferry!!! (Sorry, that's my default free thing. But maybe there's a baseball game in SI? That's not free, but it is cheap. And would give you a reason to ride the ferry.)

I do, too, but I've gotten pretty stealthy about it in movies. Almost soundless, and my eyes don't get puffy and bloodshot when I cry, so no one can tell once I'm done.

The park! Take a book you haven't read, or visit a library and enjoy the end of summer.
OK, I have to admit something: I started crying at the opening credits of Titanic. Save the costumes and Winslet, I hated the movie. But at some point in my youth, I'd done the research and so... I was an utter mess by the end. It was embarassing. I had to wait until most people left.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
What's embarassing about crying in a dark room where no one is looking at you because they all paid good money to look at what's on the giant lighted screen? Sure, crying in a business meeting or at a restaurant, I'd be incredibly embarassed, but in a movie--that seems like the safest place to cry there is. No one cares, plus you can wipe your eyes while the credits are rolling and look pretty smooth by the time the lights come back up.

My only problem with crying in the movies was the time I saw the first LotR movie with a friend, and it was her first time seeing it, but my second, and I started sniffling WAY too early.

My movie "crying," sure. If I were actually crying, no way I'd look OK by the time the lights come back up. I look a MESS with real crying.

It's just a thing. There's no accounting, sometimes. Plus, I totally check out my movie-going companions to see who else caved.
