Sports films are important to the guy-cry genre, but sports action is not necessarily essential to qualify a film as a genuine guy-cry. This is mainly due to the financial and often critical successes of films that fall within this genre. that includes Saving Private Ryan, Schindler's List, and The Passion of the Christ, among many others.
