Although I've never cried during a movie, there are two specific scenes, out of all the movies that I've ever seen, that made me come pretty damn close and choked me up for a long while afterwards....
Firstly, the ending of Flags of our Fathers.
(Note - you've just watched right through a violent and bloody war movie, and years later, everyone has been killed or has died. The scene before this, the old guy dies in hospital in the 1990's/2000's or whatever, and they could have ended the story right there.)
(And unexpectedly, you hear a voiceover from the old guy, saying 'Remember them all for what they did. Remember them how they were.' And back to the 1940's we go for the very last scene.)

Secondly, the scene in Up where the guy returns to his house and is about to give up on the voyage.
And then he looks through an old photo book....

And now for a complete change of mood - two action scenes I never forgot....
The ending to Silver Streak (bear in mind that this is 1976 - long before CGI)

And because I'm a die hard Star Trek fan, I can't not put this in....
Kirk: "My god Bones, what have I done."
Bones: "What you do. What you always do. Turn death into a fighting chance to live."
