What's the most heartbreaking film you've watched?

[LudoBear]

I've just watched Mums List. Proper sobbing watching it and I don't even have children.

Eight Below, Haachi and Marley & Me are sad too.

Steel magnolias
Step mom (Julia Roberts and Susan Sarandon)
Moulin rouge
Beaches

@mrsbeeton999

Pete’s dragon 😂 honestly Also The fault in our stars and Impossible

If it helps, the song makes me cry.....

Schindler's List
Atonement
My Sister's Keeper

Stepmom is one of the saddest films I've watched.

Middleager your thinking of the changling .
Mine are star is born , the lake house , bridge to terabithia

Those films made by Farah Fawcett Majors re child abuse I found them too hard to watch.
Also The Champ with Ricky Schroeder and Jon Voight, I was in bits but I was very young.

Kramer vs Kramer, Beaches ,The Green Mile , Stella and I can't even watch it now at 47 ET

Toy Story 3 had DH sobbing in the cinema.

Another vote for Brokeback Mountain. Though, and I'm giving away my age now, Old Yeller broke my heart when I was a child. Unfortunately, when I was working in a cinema during college holidays, Old Yeller was the B movie (yes I'm that old). I had to go in with the ice cream just before the dog was shot and was still in tears when the queue for ices formed.

Another one Mrs Doubtfire as it shows the devastation Divorce has on young children . The ending when the magnificent Robin Williams reading out the letter from Katie breaks my heart everytime. Always kept this in mind when I split from my Ex.

Truly. Madly Deeply

So many

Pursuit of happiness
A league of their own
The boy in the striped pyjamas

Going back 73 years, it was Bambi and the loss of his mother. A close second is Dumbo's caged mother's lament.

Oh and I properly sobbed for hours after It’s a Sin.

@IReallyNeedMoreGin who will love my children!!! Oh my god, I had forgotten about that film. I watched it one Sunday afternoon at my parents house and I was traumatised.

Schindlers list, the boy in the striped pyjamas and I Daniel Blake.

We were in Mexico for their Mother’s Day and there was a triple bill on tv - Stepmom, Term of Endearment and Steel Magnolias. I actually have a list of films I no longer watch including Prince of Tides, The Way We Were and Bridges of Madison County.

I’m a big crier at films but these are ones I remember sobbing to...

Steel magnolias
Beaches
Watership down (listening to Bright Eyes still makes me emotional!)
Good Will Hunting - was emotional when the film started so it turned me into a sobbing mess - now just brings back memories

Had almost forgotten about Sleepers but it’s one of those films with a couple of scenes that will never leave me so I know I never want to watch it again.

"I've Loved You So Long" and (as many have said) "The Boy In the Striped Pyjamas." Can never, ever watch either again. Any film with loss of a child has to be the most distressing. Doesn't take away from the fact these are both incredible films, but the after-effects stay with you for weeks.

While other films have haunted me for a long time - for pure bawling its Marley and Me. I just remember the sad bit going on and on and on.

I forgot “The Way we Were” also Lady Sings the blues with DIana Ross and Love Story with Ryan O’Neal and Ali Magraw

Green Mile 😢

Ah I love Rabbit Proof Fence and I Am Sam!
No one I know seems to have heard of them!

Dancer in the Dark is utterly devastating. Grave of the Fireflies also broke me.

Maborosi- early film by Koreeda (director of Shoplifters) about a young woman remarrying after her first husband has died suddenly. Breathtakingly beautiful, saw it at the cinema and wept.
