CMBA Presents: Cry Me a River: Tearjerkers Blogathon


CMBA Presents Cry Me a River: Tearjerkers Blogathon
 
May 12-16, 2025
 
Spring is here! That means it’s time for some…. tears? This year's theme for the CMBA Spring Blogathon is Cry Me a River: Tearjerkers. It will happen the week of May 12-16, 2025.

You might want to buy a box of tissues, or grab your favorite handkerchief, and use ink that won’t run when you cry over your notepad, because this theme will have us watching emotional, heartbreaking, tragic and moving films; melodramas, sob stories and weepies.

This event is for CMBA members only. Your main film topic should be from 1980 or earlier although you can reference, discuss and compare newer films to it. No duplicate topics please! There are tons of possibilities across eras, nations and genres. Your topic choices will be accepted in the order we receive them. You might even include a second choice when you send in your topic. Please send in your topic by May 11.

Use this form to submit your topic choice, blog name and preferred date for posting, if any. 

Please use one of the banners in this post, put it on your blog, and use it for promo wherever you have social media.

We’re really looking forward to another great blogathon!
