Hey fellow 41 year old dude, I also cry at this stuff. It seems especially pronounced when rewatching nostalgic productions with well written characters and conflict (I will not apologize for crying all the time during Avatar the last Airbender, as an adult man). No, I do not know what this means in regard to healthy emotional processing, it just is what it is. Mind you I also get unjustifiably angry or emotional in other contexts when I feel connected to the fate of a character and they experience injustice. So this might be a general marker for some level of empathy or maybe just emotional mimicry. Thanks for posting, I think this is something people should be okay talking about more.
Edit: I wanted to add this also occurs in other mediums, like video games. Cyberpunk 2077 was like a revolution in awareness for me, but largely because I experience DID to a degree in my life, and it really flipped the table of my understanding of myself seeing what I experience through the eyes of others.

Not one person on this entire site can tell me anyone should trust tRump in ANY situation, let alone one where he has leverage over you and interest in… your stuff. Expect more of this by the way; turns out when you’re a constant asshole to everyone, nobody wants to be around you or rely on you, let alone offer to extend help in your direction. I’m honestly baffled what people fucking expected, only brainrotted simps believe in the real adult world, on the global stage, you can twist everyone’s arms to get your way without consequence forever. And only tRump can’t see this cause that’s been his ENTIRE life: No consequences ever for being the absolute worst person regarding character and conduct.
