I will admit, I cried the firs few times expecially when those first notes of Just Like Honey struck.Not histerically but there was a tear jearking its wa out there. I dont know why but after watching it last night I just don't feel the same way as I did watching it for the first through maybe 7th time.

I did too. It caused me severe damage. I could not get that scene out of my head, I mean, it's just so powerful- the song it's so high, mixed with the drama and their expressions and then you remember all they went through together. Cool stuff.

LIT has had a profound effect on me and yet I never cried any of the times I went to see it. Those 102 minutes in the theatre were like an opium dream, I felt like I was floating in a different conscious state. It was at other times: lying in bed unable to sleep, or at the music store listening to the soundtrack, that's when I would get emotional. And then there was that one night.
I had seen the movie a couple of times, this is during the period when it was inflicting the most intense emotional disruption. Sitting at my kitchen table having a late night snack, reliving the film, mind reeling, emotions roiling. Until finally that aching upset feeling overwhelmed me, the tears started flowing and I couldn't understand why. What was this movie doing to me?
Afterwards I felt a lot better, it was like a fever that broke that night. I continued to go see it but my reaction to it started to shift.
From a crazed obsession to a wonderful experience to what it's become now, what Sofia wanted it to feel like: a beautiful memory.

In all seriousness, I had a very similar experience; I wanted to cry for days after seeing the movie but couldn't; just a few weeks ago for some personal reasons I ended up reflecting on it again and finally the tears flowed. I really felt better after that.
Thanks for sharing your story.
