I admit it: I’m addicted to movie lists. Everything from the AFI’s list to "The 50 Best Date Movies Ever" gets my attention, and the more random, the better ("Greatest Pizza Moments on Film", anyone?). I can’t get enough of ‘em.

This is exactly why visiting Entertainment Weekly’s online division never fails to make me ridiculously happy: there’s always some new list to peruse and debate over. Their latest, "The 50 Best Movie Tearjerkers Ever" (see the top 25 HERE), is pure genius. Filled with loads of great movies, the list provides the reasoning behind each film’s inclusion and even pinpoints each film’s "Kleenex Moment"; the scene guaranteed to reduce the viewer to a sobbing, blubbery mess. Best of all, the list includes several notable gay titles.

Philadelphia (at a respectable 35th place) is the first to make the cut. Says EW.com:

It's rare that a movie with all-male headliners is a weeper. But when there's a fatal illness involved, the crying's anyone's game. Tom Hanks plays Andrew Beckett, an attorney wrongfully canned by his firm for having AIDS, and Denzel Washington is the attorney who fights for his rights. Hanks' Oscar-winning portrayal of a dying man is second to none; overacting would have killed the otherwise thin role, but his quiet, heroic demeanor is perfect.
