I cry in movies a lot, and over books.

I'm a guy, but I'm not afraid to cry. Not all of the time. But when I'm watching a movie, I'll sometimes shed a tear, especially 'Moulin Rouge'.

Everyone can teach themselves to cry... but sometimes you have just got to see that mental movie going on. You've got to be feeling it.

I cry very easily. It can be a movie, a phone conversation, a sunset - tears are words waiting to be written.

I love movies that make me cry, because they're tapping into a real emotion in me, and I always think afterwards: how did they do that?

I don't cry. Well, you know, I think coming from an acting background that's really helped me because I more than anyone know that an actor creates a character.

It is not whether you really cry. It's whether the audience thinks you are crying.

Sometimes when we weep in the movies we weep for ourselves or for a life unlived. Or we even go to the movies because we want to resist the emotion that's there in front of us. I think there is always a catharsis that I look for and that makes the movie experience worthwhile.

I think action movies bring more excitement than tears, but I always want to take it to another level. I mean, I think if one appreciates anything in life to a certain degree, it could possibly bring tears to your eyes.
