I guess it's just how people react emotionally to different things. There were a few points in the movie, which I found particularly touching but I never came close to being a lttle teary eyed. I guess the movie just doesn't pack the same emotional punch as the novel does..... For me there were allot of parts in the novel, which had me getting a bit teary eyed, especially the note Eli left on the coffee table.Nightrider wrote:I think it's tough to find anyone who did not feel even a bit teary eyed after or during LTROI...

I always get a little misty-eyed every time I see the shot of Oskar picking up the Rubix cube (he looks so cute and happy! 
) the bedroom scene, Eli's departure, and at the very end.

Re: Who else cried?
I cry during scenes throughout the whole movie. I also cry whenever I hear Eli's theme. Its so bad I don't even want to watch the movie because I know its going to break my heart. I first saw Let Me In on netflix a couple of weeks ago and had a flood of emotion. I then found out about Ltroi and I watch it once a day at least. I ordered the book. I have not been affected like this by a movie ever in my life. Hell yes I cry.

I don't think I've outright cried but certainly gotten misty-eyed during some of the scenes mentioned. There's no lack of sadness in this film, which is probably why I choose to believe in a happy ending (and damn the consequences).

No crying here, but a broad, beatific smile, completely devoid of spite or sarcasm.
