I think any person can be emotionally moved by this film whether you are pretty, homely, handsome or ugly. It doesn't matter, because anyone can feel ostracized or mistreated at times in some way.
There are about 10 scenes that are veritable tear-jerkers in this movie.
The most poignant to me were:
The 23rd Psalm scene
He meets Treves' wife for the first time
When the fellow side show performers gather to help him escape ("Luck my friend.. Luck")
The Train Station scene ( being harassed by the kids)
The theater scene when he's being honored and receives the standing ovation
and of course..The ending -

Oh yes. When he meets the good doctor's wife..that brings me to tears. Also, when the wife starts crying, I find that incredibly touching. It's almost as if she was so overwhelmed with the sadness and empathy she felt towards him. Beautiful film. Shockingly, I've only seen this movie once because it's soewhat emotionally draining to watch.
