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.

I was going to say Marley and Me when I opened the thread. I properly sobbed my heart out at that.

Bambi
Cathy Come Home (I cried and cried with my DM)

Loads already mentioned on here: Boy in the striped pyjamas, Marley and Me etc.

I sobbed (whilst on a flight of all places) at On Chesil Beach. I'd already read the book so I knew what would happen, but it didn't move me as much as the film.

Funnily enough, I also sobbed at The Children Act far more than the book. Again, I knew the ending but the film knocked me sideways.

It must be Ian McEwan's dry writing style, genius as it is.

Out Of Africa
English Patient
The Horse Whisperer

Out of Africa
Lion
Boy in the Striped Pyjamas
Life is Beautiful

The Incredible Journey. Sometimes my DP describes the scene at the end when the animals return, just to see if he can make me cry. Always works.

I, Daniel Blake stayed with me for a very long time.

Before women had wings 😥

12 years a slave
A.I Artificial Intelligence, even the plot gets to me “ A highly advanced robotic boy longs to become "real" so that he can regain the love of his human mother.” 😭

Million Dollar Baby‎. It just set me off, and affected me for ages afterwards.

Oh and The Color Purple with Whoopi Goldberg 😢

Bridge to Terabithia. It is honesty the most heartbreaking and devastating film I have ever watched.

It'll be Wonder and then the other week I watched (The Hate U Give) WOW!

To kill a mockingbird/ War horse/ A dogs way home

Any film involving the death of a dog. A Dogs Purpose, can’t ever watch that again.

Marley and me

The Diving Bell and the Butterfly

Lilya forever and requim for a dream.

Documentaries: Dear Zachary a letter from a father to his son. I tear up just thinking about it.

The Notebook
CIty of Angel's
Time travellers wife
Oh my god all of these had me blubbering like a baby

The bridges of Maddison County!! I could not stop greeting!!

Dead Man Walking
Forrest Gump
Gone with the Wind
Haatchi
The Wind That Shakes The Barley

Stepmom broke my heart. There’s a brilliant film no one I know seems to have watched called 50/50 with Joseph Gordon Levitt that makes me bawl, it’s based on a true story and it’s gut wrenching to watch.

Not a film but a series but I’m still not over It’s A Sin.

I was going to say 50/50. Heartbreaking.

I forgot the one that makes me cry from the beginning to the end is Doctor Zhivago !!

I agree Never Let me go is gut wrenching also Broke back mountain, I don’t think I have ever been so heart broken and moved by a love story.

Titanic - the scene where the mother is cuddling her children in bed & the elderly couple 💔

Oh yes Brokeback - tragic 😢
