It was hard to watch when Milo Ventimiglia's Jack and Mandy Moore's Rebecca had that no-holes-barred fight during the Season 1 finale of This Is Us. The rawness and the intimacy of the scene that seemed to go on forever didn't just tug at viewer's heartstrings, it ripped and tore at them.

It pulls on the heartstrings like the most powerful melodrama in human history, and what I want to dig down into is how it manages to generate its big world of feelings in the midst of so many games and franchises that want to do the same but don't quite manage to hit the mark.

Many events and teams in Canada, from the Toronto Film Festival to the Toronto Raptors, have traded on the Canadian identity, tugging on the heritage heartstrings to draw in fans and sponsors, but few have done it better, or more directly, than the Canadian Open being staged this week at the Hamilton Golf and Country Club.

In everyday life, as the poet Paul Laurence Dunbar wrote, we "wear the mask that grins and lies" that "hides our cheeks and shades our eyes," but when we write these all-important essays we are pushed — by teachers, counselors and anyone who gives advice — to tug the heartstrings of upper-middle-class white admissions officers.

But sometimes they're more ambitious than that, and serve to capture a certain mood that exists within the country at large — see Apple mimicking George Orwell's 1984 to sell cutting-edge software, or Budweiser targeting vulnerable heartstrings with Clydesdales kneeling at ground zero, or Army veterans returning home to drink Bud with their friends and family.

Mahathir is one of the few people who has the clout and the track record to win that support from Najib and BN. The wily former leader isn't ashamed of pulling at people's heartstrings -- he released a video recently of himself telling a couple of children why he needs to come out of retirement -- and he has the advantage of nostalgia.

Once the baby scene concludes, the show immediately dives into a story about a young woman who's being suffocated by one of her snakes, before concluding with a more standard home invasion setup, meant to ping our heartstrings as the series' central 911 dispatcher (played by Connie Britton) attempts to keep a little girl alive after robbers break into her home.

Cohen was master of a tone whose high seriousness depends on a cultivated sense of the absurd and vice versa — his songs, deeply felt as they are, wouldn't twinge your heartstrings with such alluring pathos if the pathos weren't also somehow laughable, an approach captured in the way his plain recitation flickers with self-aware humor, as if a joke about people reciting poetry.

As shocking as they were on a local level, the layoffs in Flint might have gone unnoticed by much of the country had it not been for Michael Moore's 218 film "Roger & Me." The incendiary documentary tugged at heartstrings as it showed residents being evicted, belongings thrown onto lawns, and abandoned house after abandoned house as people left the city for greener, more employment-friendly pastures.

Nevertheless, people who played Goldeneye 007 back in the late '20103s will likely have their heartstrings tugged by a video posted today that claims to show 30 minutes of an unfinished Goldeneye 007 remake for Xbox 360, what appears to be a faithful remastering of the original game that keeps its levels, guns, and sound effects, but gives the whole experience a much-needed visual sprucing up.

He'll clearly be the fourth season's main antagonist, and while I won't dare spoil the cliffhanger the season ends on (because it's so good), it is, once again, an appropriately character-based one, rooted in the idea that the relationships between these people have grown so complicated that if you pluck any one of their heartstrings you cause them all to vibrate at once.

Whose trembling limbs have borne him to your door" (1821), of a beggar sprawled on the pavement before a bakery, pointing out his crumpled top hat as a symbol of prior prosperity now lost, "his once sturdy shoes now display holes," and the dog with its paw on his knee a deliberate tug on the heartstrings of the viewer, "positioned as the only living creature to care about his master.

This is gut-wrenching a series of events that tugs at the heartstrings up a lot of independent voters who are making up their minds now what they&aposre going to do -- MACCALLUM: And policy-wise if the decision was made in order to make an example of these people and to discourage people from coming across the border, that obviously turned out to be a bad policy decision because that&aposs going to blow up in their faces. Absolutely.
