I have always been one to cry on planes when watching films. I don’t know if it’s the anonymity of the plane seat combined with the sleep-deprived emotion of travel, but I’m useless when the music swells and the camera cranes up for the hero shot.

This film particularly left me speechless.
Amazing, amazing, amazing.

   Will add that to the list….have a look at “Slumdog Millionaire” it’s brilliant!

   Also,some research has been done that shows men often cry and become more emotional in general when in the air….no-one’s sure why though.
