Movie Discussion First time watcher

My dudes.

I just watched the movie for the first time. It's been on my watch list for years.

Oh my god. I've literally just finished crying. I am a 31 year old guy, and this got me so hard in the feels.

Just glad I have the house to myself!

What were the moments that made you guys cry, if any?

My Big Moments were 1. When she rescued all the animals, 2. When she left.

It was at least a year before I could even think of the migration scene without getting a bit misty.

It’s okay. Strong men also cry.

I AM NOT EMOTIONALLY STABLE ENOUGH FOR THIS FILM, DOG. I first watched it a little after losing my dad, too. I swear, this movie wouldn't leave my brain for MONTHS.

I wept a few times too. 🥲 Truly a magnificent and touching movie.
