The ending of CODA where the father smiles at his daughter, says "Go" (his only word spoken in the film) and smiles

It wasn't at the end and I've written about it before but while I've never found The Exorcist scary, only lurid and interesting, as a teenager i did once suddenly start crying at the altruism of the old sick priest, going in to help some girl he didn't even know, at great personal cost. (Plus back then I think I had a brief stage as a crier.) I still find something extremely poignant about that, that in the midst of this campy '70s flick there is this moment of brave kindness.

The ending of Inception made me feel like crying....with relief. Is it really finally over? Can I leave at last?

Thanks, I started the day with a chuckle.

But no, you can't leave. It's a Nolan movie, you need to stay a few more hours while we discuss how amazingly deep the script is. And we have to come up with at least 20 interpretations, even when the director probably never intended to make much sense in the first place.

Top Gun Maverick: I cried because of the emotion I felt seeing the first movie I had seen in a theater for two years, I felt sad when you feel like you know that Ice is going to die, I cried with relief when Mav and Rooster are rescued by Hangman, I cried when Mav and Rooster reconciled and when Mav and Penny's plane flies off into the sunset
