Scenes in Films or TV that still break your heart

[strawberrisc]

Muriell walking past her Mum in “Muriel’s Wedding” and then the happy photo of her her they find afterwards. Just one of many.

'It's a wonderful life' when Mr Gower learns that he's lost his son, gets hammered and puts poison in the medicine bottle by mistake, George intervenes and gets clouted round his bad ear 😭😭😭

The Railway Children 'daddy, my daddy'

Red Road. The scene involving a teddy bear and a box of children's clothes. FFS tearing up now at the thought

Basically I can't watch anything without blubbing and I didn't even get through a quarter of this thread before I started.

😳

Most already mentioned, but I also cry When Wilson bobs away in Cast Away, and Tom Hanks is crying “Wilson!”.
When he goes to see his now married girlfriend and she tells him he’s the love of her life.

Pay it forward lost me a bet with dd. I said there were no good tearjerker movies made this century (this was a few years ago they seem to have had a resurgence) and she produced pay it forward! Little bugger!

This is us - William - his whole story is just so utterly heartbreaking. Fabulous actor too.

Loads of those already mentioned, but also:

The Straight Story, when Matthew (I know that's not his character's name in this) reaches his brother's house;

Goodbye Mr Chips - the original version with Robert Donat, total sob-fest;

Penny Serenade, omg, do not watch this film;

An Affair to Remember, "I was looking up - it was the nearest thing to heaven. You were there." (Am welling up now...)

Brief Encounter, the bit at the end with that stupid woman wittering on about her tea! Argh!!

I cry at anything tbh.

The end of the ladt 'Hobbit' film when Kili dies and Tauriel and Thruandil are talking about love and he says "Because it was real" (after dismissing it previously) when you realise he is capable of love and loved his wife) 😭😭😭
And when Bilbo is with Thorin as he dies😭😭

Oh god yes 'The Body' straight out of the blue and raw.

The Road is brutal but the end is heart breaking even though you know its coming.

"Captain my captain" when all the boys stand on their seats.

Alien Ressurection when.they find all the Ripleys and one is still alive and begs Ripley to.kill her.

Little women when Beth dies.

50%of Les Mis - Fantines downward spiral.
Eponines death (and her song All alone)
Empty tables
"Do you hear the people sing?" at the end.
Total blub fest.

End of Gladiator.

I'll just leave this here...

First Gump - all the way through.
Mama Mia 1,- all the way through.
Benjamin Button.

PS I love you, was one of my late partners & my favourite films, through watching it he told me things he wanted me to do if he died, he didn't know he was poorly then, but after he died I remembered the promises I had made to him. I cry my eyes out every time I see it now.

The Jazz Singer when Jess comes back & Molly is on the beach with their baby & Hello Again is playing.

Jawbone when Jimmy was fighting alcoholism & he was hiding his bottle of Vodka, having lost my partner to alcoholism it brings back a lot of memories.

The Brookside spin off Damien & Debbie when Damien gets stabbed at the side of the river in York & dies, I watched Brookside as well & cried myself to sleep for weeks after Damien died.

The Railway Children when Bobby goes to the station & meets her Father off the train "Daddy my Daddy"

In Pan’s Labyrinth, in a dream sequence, when the blind monster chases the little girl, and the fairies sacrifice themselves to warn her.

When Matthew buys Anne the dress with puff sleeves in Anne of green gables. And when he dies.

Doctor Who- Vincent and the Doctor. When Bill Nighy tells the Doctor how important Van Gogh is to the art world. Makes me sob.
Homeward bound- The ending.
Land before time - littlefoots mother dying and the ending.

The Fox and the Hound. When she leaves him in the forest, and again when they're fighting near the end. I actually can't watch it

I agree with all the ones up thread that I’ve seen! Especially Steel Magnolias, Royle Family, This is Us and This is England.

The scene that got me most in This is England was where Woody and his new girlfriend bumped into Milky and the gang and he lost it. “I fucking loved you Milk and I watched her have your baby”.

There is a scene in Remains of the Day where Emma Thompson wrestles the book out of Anthony Hopkins hands. He looks as her with such repressed love but just can’t say the words.

The Sainsbury’s Christmas advert where the English and Germans play football out of the trenches.

Most recently “They Shall Not Grow Old”. Amazing documentary.

In green mile when John Coffe watches the flicker show even after seeing the film a billion times it always gets me right in the feels 😢

First 10 minutes of up.

Another one for Emma Thompson in Love actually when she goes upstairs with the CD. That song was on the radio the other day and even that had me in tears.

YY to seven pounds. Heartbreaking film!

Satine's death in Moulin Rouge.

Oh and in a good way, the scene in Notting Hill where Bella’s husband won’t leave her behind and picks her up, puts her in the car and puts her wheelchair in the back. “Come on babe”.

When Emma Thompson opens her joni mitchell cds on christmas day and figures out that the necklace was for somebody else. And she goes up stairs and has a very quick cry so that she can come back downstairs and make Christmas day nice for her kids

I watched L A last night that scene is fantastic and gets me all emotional

So many scenes in the blind side, also million dollar baby and gran torino made me cry a lot.

Bruce Willis sacrificing himself to save the world in Armageddon gets me every time!

I sobbed watching war horse too.

Gosh so many films and tv shows have turned me into a blubbering mess!

I was a mess walking out of the cinema after seeing blindside a snotty sobbing mess

Oh goodness, any film with animals dying...Eight Below is an underrated Paul Walker film where he has to abandon his artic husky's in a storm and then tried to get back to rescue them. I'm crying from 30 mins in

Also Adrift-won't give away the ending but was in tears.

Found A Quiet Place a tearfest too. If you've watched it, you know the scene I mean 😭

The foodbank scene in “I, Daniel Blake”.

The very last few minutes of Six Feet Under with Sia's Breathe Me.

The end of Shawshank Redemption.

When little Lou dies in Love My Way.

Love Actually, when Emma Thomson realises Alan Rickman's affair.

Into the Wild, when the old dude offers to adopt him and be his family.

The Kite Runner, when the dad sticks up for refugee woman.

Waaaaaaaaaa

@Willow2017 I am see les mis next year I might need my mansize tissues!

Oh and Benjamin Button when he says the 'you're never too old' and it shows him
In Tibet etc and then when he's a newborn and Cate Blanchett is holding him at the end. OMG
