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??

Terminator 2 where Arnie lowers himself into the molten lake in order to destroy the remaining chip.

Haatchi A dogs tale
Boy in the striped Pajamas
The Notebook - I watched this with a hangover and H came home and thought someone had died. I was blubbering so much I couldn't speak

Plus every Lassie ever made!!

Jean de Florette, I'll never get over it!

HotChocolateLover · 12/08/2019 21:04

The Boy in the striped pyjamas. 😭😭😭 I was sobbing at the end.

Schindlers list
Mississippis burning
Hatchi

I think because they are based on real events

Has anyone said Sophie’s Choice? That film still haunts me. I watched it before I was a mother and after. I could never watch it again

Sarahlou63 · 12/08/2019 21:14

The last ten minutes of Drop Dead Fred always makes me bawl.

WhoReallyCares · 12/08/2019 21:17

Dumbo. I can't watch. It splits me in half.

Joy, the Mongolia version. It is beautifully written and I had to pause few times to wipe the tears and allow me to read the subtitles.

Bubbletrouble43 · 14/08/2019 17:37

Also the railway children. I start blubbing at Bobbys birthday and reach a state of ugly hiccup style wailing by the " my daddy" bit at the end.

Lassie - the one that came out in 2005. Me and my son (about 10 at the time) just sobbed.

Me Before You
Sunshine (1973)
Kramer v Kramer
Beaches

In Empire of the Sun, the scene where young Jim realised he can't remember what mother and father look like.

Drivenmad80 · 09/10/2019 23:28

My Girl... where are his glasses? He can't see without his glasses! 😭😭😭🎂🎂

Hughbaird1 · 10/10/2019 18:25

I used to cry when I watched bambi and his mum got shot lol and titanic when Jack dies

Hughbaird1 · 10/10/2019 18:27

That's the saddest part when he gets killed by the bee stings :( and the funeral part omg so sad

Fallofrain · 20/10/2019 08:47

Still life.

It didnt make me sob, but stayed with me! Its a bit of a small film, but its about someone who arranges funerals for people with no next of kin.

Since watching dreams of a life, (the documentary about a woman who died in london who wasnt discovered for some time, exploring her relationships etc) the idea of peoppe falling of the edges of society facinates me in a morbid way

A cry for help

gigglesandshits · 29/10/2019 19:45

Definitely 'I am Sam.' My heart breaks for them every time!
