He cried at Coco on our third date and didn't try to hide it

Movie night at his place in Curitiba, he picked Coco because I said I'd never seen it (I know). During the Remember Me scene with Mamá Coco he just started crying, full tears, and then said "sorry, my avó used to sing to me" and kept watching. He didn't make a joke or leave the room.

Brazilian men I've dated before would rather die than cry in front of a woman. I didn't know what to say so I just held his hand. Is this as green as I think it is

right, he didn't just cry, he explained. that's emotional honesty on date three

if you can watch that scene without crying you're the red flag
