Skinny Guy my dad loved me I miss him everyday, I still got my mom and I try to tell her how much I love her as much as I can, even tho she too has a mental disability and has tried to hurt me and my siblings before, I still love her with all my heart ❤️
Anselmo Sedillo In my opinion he always does. Cuba Gooding Jr. is the shit. I can name plenty of awesome movies with him, one is one of my favorites Men Of Honor, where he worked most of his life even losing part of his leg to become a Master diver in the Navy. The movie is a true story.
my momma passed in 2014... I was a couple months pregnant with my son. when I got that call on the phone I tore my apartment apart!!! I screamed I yelled I tried to destroy everything!!!! I almost lost my baby boy that day due to me being high risk. I refused to push in the hospital thinking that she was gonna show up and hold my hand... she never showed. I cried the whole time. hell I'm crying right now. If your mom is still alive I don't give a damn if y'all ain't speaking if she said she hate you if she disowned you... you call her and tell her you love her. I told my mom that every day evenhthough she let some bad things happened to me. goddess knows I loved/and still do love that woman. and would give anything to have her here.
My mother died 6 days ago I also lost my grandmother back in 2012 I was too heart broken because I was so close with my grandma and my mother was a drug addict and she see us every two to four months the last time I saw my mother was back in may the only one's I have left are my two sisters my aunt uncle five brothers and cousin my life could have been a lot worse but thanks to my mother having my aunt raise us I will forever thank my mother for that
Man Cuba Goodings Jr. played the hell out of that role. Got me crying missing my mother. Hands down, I think he's the only other male actor that can rival Denzel Washington
Black actor or just actor in general? Not being racist just wondering...cause if it is black than Morgan freeman is miles ahead,but denzel and Cuba or great too :)
If you didn't cry during this scene (...as well as other part of this movie), then you simply don't have a soul. R.I.P. to the original "Radio", James Kennedy.
@@melodybrown6876 this... the way he walked into the room to console Radio as the gentle soul, placed his hand on his chest reminding him that his mom will always be there, his daughter in the background being brought to tears, and the story coach told his daughter after in his pickup truck which brings home why he's this way towards Radio, just a tear jerker.
I always cry whenever I watch this movie because I think about my brother who is mentally challenged and everything he has gone through in just 23 years of life. Every scene hit home for me.
Same for me but my sister an we all watched this with our mother when it came out, I was about 9 an I cried my eyes out because I thought about her, sitting next to me, thinking if I wasn’t there and this happened how she would take it 😔
I felt so bad for my my friend and his brother when their mom passed away. His brother was disabled and couldn't understand death and that she was gone, it hurt me a lot to think of what he was going through at that time.
yeah me too. my mom's friend's son lost HIS mom. he had DS. and she said he wouldn't understand it either, but I bet he DID. His siter however could have cared less
Jordan Murray my mom passed away and I have a special needs brother and it’s been 2 years since she died but he stills asks were she is or at bedtime asks my dad if my mom could give him a goodnight kiss and sing to him but my dad tried to explain that she is dead but is still with us in our hearts but he doesn’t get it.
A mother's love never dies. I once wrote a letter to this young woman telling her that a mother's love never goes away, but it's a daughter's love that gives her mother the strength to keep on moving. 😪
I cried. My daughter is special in many ways, and I have thought many times about how she would be when im gone. This beautiful scene is something special.
I seriously cry EVERY time! The hurt ….great acting and story in general. It’s ALWAYS like the first time with extreme loss (even years later) - both in real life and watching this scene
Man particular scene had me crying real man tears. It’s just so sad man. Makes me appreciate my mother a lot more and hope that she’ll be here a long time. I love you Momma.
I can never understand how Cuba Gooding junior got a Razzie nomination for his performance in radio this scene alone should’ve gotten him an Oscar or a screen actors Guild. He was phenomenal in that movie. Absolutely phenomenal!!!!!!!!!
This scene gets me every time. My stepmother used to work with mentally challenged people, and every other day when i had jrotc practice that ran late, i would got to her job after school, man, talking about some good times. People with disabilities are here to teach us patience and unconditional love.
It's hard losing a momma. I lost my mom to lung cancer almost 2 years ago, being a special needs woman I depended everything on her. I was there at the hospital when she took her last breaths, me and my dad. They were divorced but I was glad it was him that was with me, no matter what we were still a family. A month after she passed, the five stages of mourning finally came out all at once when I couldn't find my cellphone one day, I threw and broke things, I cried and screamed, telling her I hate my life without her, hate living in our house, and hating her for leaving me. My boyfriend never saw me get upset like that and he held me in his arms and cried too. I miss my amazing mom everyday, my dad says the pain gets easier overtime since both is parents have gone, but there will always be part of that pain in my heart and it will never go away. But I'm lucky I have supportive people in my life, my dad, my boyfriend and his parents, my dog, and my mom's friends/representatives who have been like mothers to help me fill in the void. I like to remember the life my mom lived and not recall how she died, I mean I can talk about it, but in the end it's better not to, some things should be kept in a respected silence. A mother's love never dies, she'll still be there. I know that because I come from generations of strong, gentle, and brave women just like my mom and grandmother and that's what keeps me going.
Beautiful words just amazing I have special needs myself im.small woman I m 34 now but I saw that i was a early 20s my mommy and love movies 🎬 about people's with disabilities we need to shine show the big world 🌎 what's like being younger man's disability and a younger woman's with disabilities what's we goes we can date and get married and have babies I always believe in love and friends
@@skullzies785 Like I said the pain never really goes away, if you need to angry and need to cry, let them out. But you have to find a way to pick up the pieces and keep going. Sure you have bad days and good days, but your dad will always be there for you, the love of a parent never dies.
i cried like a baby in this scene. Phenomenal acting by the three of them. a brilliant movie that really makes you feel something and changes your life.
Radio is one of my personal heroes and this is my fav movie of all time. Nothing comes close. He had so much love for the people around him and enjoyed what he did, what a great person and blessing he was. I wish I could have met him
*I can't watch this w/out crying* always huh your mom, and tell her how much you love her and how much she means to you. My mom is the best and more beautiful part of my life 💞
This tears 😭 me up and I lost my mom back in 2013 when she had stage 4 lung cancer and it hit me so hard that day and it feels like it was yesterday everyday
I’m 29 years old and I’m very close with my mom. I love her very much she’s my hero. She also saved my life at very young age that could have ended my life I’m a survivor of TBI. Every day I thank God that he gave me such amazing mom that’s why I’m thankful for her and that’s why I love her so much.
I love my momma more than she knows, she raised me and my two sisters all on her own after being cheated on twice and divorced twice. She was sexually abused as a child by her own father. None of her family ever went to college, she was from a poor but amazing rural Mississippi family and they couldn’t afford to send her. She had never heard of college before she was 19. She worked hard and put herself through nursing school. She battled depression, and when I was born as her first child, she said I gave her a purpose and saved her life. She worked two jobs as a er nurse and hospice nurse to support me and my 2 little sisters. She was recently diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis, and while she’s fighting to hang on every day, her depression is stronger than ever. I’ve had to stop her from ending it all due to her constant battle with chronic pain. I love her so much, and she has done so much for me. I don’t know what I would do without her, but I’ll enjoy every day with her that I can, because no one is guaranteed tomorrow. God bless everyone, love your mother, because you only have one birth mother.
i never had my father my mother is everything to me she was always there even when i hurt her threw my time in jail and lost in the streets i cant imagine life without her
I remember seeing this in middle school and it broke my heart ... I'm not ashamed to say i cried during this part and I felt so bad for radio knowing hes no different than us. He was an amazing person, I'm sure and I wish I had a heart close to be as golden as his, the guy is now no longer needing to cry for his mom I'm not exactly religious but ... I'd like to think hes woth his mother now and is happier than ever knowing he'll be an inspiration to bring out the better in us all... I'm not particularly close with either one of my parents, being forced to grow up in a broken home with my father, and a pretty harsh but somewhat caring home with my mother ... though having said that I honestly feel I'd breakdown if I had learned that either one of them passed and I'd feel that i lost a great part of me when they did go ... i may not be close to either of them but I think ill always love them both ... no matter what we tell ourselves we will always on some level love our parents ... rest in peace Mr. James "Radio" Kennedy, I know that I'll never forget you and so will a good number of others whos hearts you have touched
This whole movie …. Never just this scene … Cuba Gooding Jr. deserved Oscars for this movie. I still watch years later and I cannot get over it! Fantastic movie
Wow. That scene really hits the feels. This moment alone shows that Coach John became more than a friend to Radio. He became the father Radio never had.
Makes a grown man cry every time I see this. It's 2021 now. Middle of a pandemic and people are divisive as ever. I hope people can see this and remember that we are human, we hurt, we need each other.
I think what makes this especially sad is how dependent Radio was on his mother because of his disability. I don’t just mean financially, emotionally too. Before he met Coach Jones, she was the only person who spent time with him. She was the only person who was a part of his life. Most importantly, she was the only person who truly loved him unconditionally.
I lost my mommy 3 years ago and still cry about it. It literally tore out half of my heart. I always thought Cuba Gooding Jr should’ve won an Oscar for his acting in this movie. It’s the closest thing to how a child feels when they just find out they’ve lost the person most precious to them.
Anyone losing their mother is a complete tragic loss in this case this one hits me more because unlike the world she loved him unconditionally and he was so comfortable with her and was never mistreated.. for someone like him to lose the closest thing to him I'm more than sure it literally tore him apart. The room is a manifestation of how he feels inside, maybe a lot worse
I remember breaking down sobbing the first time I saw this scene. I'm both a Daddy's girl and a Mommy's girl and just to have this scene come out of nowhere just hit me so hard.
