Saddest film you've ever seen?

So I'm sitting here watching Seven Pounds (Will Smith)
I've seen this film loads of times, but it never fails to make me cry. Like proper ugly cry, tears streaming, everything.
This is the only film that does this to me. I think it's so underrated.

What movies do this to other people??

I cried buckets in a not too well known film ( adaption of a book too)
The End Of The Affair .. starring Ralph Fiennes
The wronged husband had me sobbing a lot .. amazing acting and Saving Mr Banks ...
Ghost had be sobbing in the cinema toilet .. and another lady had retreated there too and we both looked at each other and laughed / cried lol ....
Bambi is another and I have to say .. Dead Man Walking .. stays with me now

Any film that has the potential to have a dying dog in I avoid. Also any film with 7 foot blue cats I avoid but that's for different reasons that I'm reduced to tears.

Collateral beauty.
My eyelids turned inside out from crying so so much.

RoryGillmoresEvilTwin · 20/06/2019 21:16

Avengers endgame...I sobbed in the cinema!

I cry at everything but I first saw Brokeback Mountain on a Saturday night and was still crying on the tube on the Tuesday morning. Pretty good going even for me.

Me before you

@DuggeesWooOOooggle - I was going to say Philadelphia too.

It was yonks ago, (25 yrs?) and I haven't seen it since - but it must have been upsetting for me to remember it this long.

It's not the saddest film I've ever seen but the saddest scene in any film I've ever watched is the bit in Castaway where she chases him down the road in the pouring rain and they have to say goodbye. I weep every time. Buckets.

Magdalen Laundries. I only watched the start, I couldn't continue, it was so heartbreaking.

lunaspring · 20/06/2019 21:31

In a happy ending way, Lion. The tears streamed down my face.

If you don't mind foreign language films I can highly recommend a Japanese film called Departures. It won an Oscar for best foreign film. The ending made me cry so much

QuestionableMouse · 20/06/2019 21:34

The Art of Racing in the Rain is being made into a movie and I know I'm going to sob. Proper ugly crying probably.

Koizora.

Cried so hard.

Basically these too youngins get together and its all sweetness and love (well, and a miscarriage) he tells her he wants to break up, she eventually finds out he has cancer and didn't want to die and hurt her. He asks for a camera when he is in hospital. He dies. And she finds that every day he has been taking a photo of her. So in her sorrow she goes to jump off a bridge and end it but just as she tries these two doves fly up and stop her (which is a throwback to a convo they had so she thinks he's sent them to save her).

Balled my eyes out the whole second half of the film.

Precious is devastatingly sad, as is Angela’s Ashes

DulciUke · 20/06/2019 21:57

Amour (french film which chronicles a wife with Alzheimers) was a slow, drawn out, horror. Didn't cry but was fairly devastated by the ending.

Sobbed my eyes out at Love Story when I was a young-un.

The end of Billy Elliott when he performs swan lake and his family are there “I wouldn’t have missed it for the world” god I am in floods

Also the end of the scary film where Bruce Willis is a ghost and the boy says his dead granny wants to tell his mum the answer to her question is “every day” and the boy asks what the question is and the mum says “are you proud of me”

NannyRed · 20/06/2019 22:04

I’m nit prone to tears, but Green Mike can always reduce me to tears. Not just one scene, but many scenes make me blue like a baby. Still a great film though.

NannyRed · 20/06/2019 22:04

Green Mile. Damn you auto correct.
