My father took me and my brother to see it at the movies, and I remember me and my brother crying and my Dad consoling us. We were 8 and 7 at the time. I haven't seen it since!
Yep. One of a few times we pinned my Dad to the wall with Big questions, and he had to get very philosophical about the meaning of life, loss, and the collective realization of our mortality.

I first saw it ~1980'ish, I was a bit older and it gave me a massive lump in my throat, and still does in my mid 50's.
Right there with you. At the time it was the saddest thing I'd ever seen. It's stuck with me all these years.
