As to getting emotional while watching them, yes I can very much so.

True story films can hit the most.
There is however one actress who can have me really lifted and happy in her performances, or feeling sad, or getting angry at the character she's playing.
Many of her characters and performances have admittedly brought tears.
From many decades ago and way, way before I was even born.
Bette Davis, in The Old Maid, A Stolen Life, Now Voyager, Dark Victory.and All About Eve.

It does depend on the story though a lot of the time but those kind of films can hit me hardest.
Now Voyager and All about Eve are great films. Not seen the other three.

Another great Bette Davis film is "The Little Foxes' and obviously "Whatever happened to baby Jane" is a classic.
