Dusty movies

Is there a movie that creates a lot of dust in the room leading to a little watery eyes??

 

For me - The Rookie (Dennis Quaid) where he plays Jim Morris - High school teacher who tries out as MLB pitcher and makes TB Rays. The scene where he talks to his son on the phone to tell him he’s been called up to big leagues is amazing. 

 

Honorable mention: Old Yeller (because we’ve had 3 yellow labs over the last 20 + years).

I always figured you for a "Beaches" or "Ghost" kinda guy.  Not that there is anything wrong with that.

The end of the Curious George movie when this song came on:

 

 

 

Somehow it reminds me of childhood innocence/curiosity.  

 

Honorable Mention: A League of Their Own:  There's No Crying In Baseball!  But at the end when that Madonna song This Used To Be My Playground plays I used to feel a little misty eyed

The Natural after he breaks Wonderboy and the kid gives him the Savoy Special. All the dust.

The Up scene was one of my favorite scenes ever.  Not even one word and they managed to evoke every human emotion in what, 2 minutes?  Genius.

The Last of the Mohicans

 

Alice's Suicide

 

 

But... Then Natty opens up a can of dual muzzleloading whoop-ass!  And Chingachgook unloads on Magua which quickly dries the misty eye:

 

 

 

Then there is the final duel in Rob Roy...

 

 

These are man card foggy eyes!  ^^^^^
