Movie/TV scenes that hurt your heart...

[ReallyReallyReallyAm]

No matter how many times you watch them!

Casper, when the mum comes back.

Friends, when Monica is going to the sperm bank & Joey chats to her about how he sees her future & gives her a big hug. (I was desperately broody & single first time I watched that & it always still gives me the feels!)

The start of Titanic where they show that old footage & play that music.

Billy Elliot. The scene where the older brother sees that his father crosses the picket line.

Strangely a scene from Eastenders when Peter Beale finds out Lucy his twin sister has died. He drops to the ground with with the most gutteral howl. It was haunting.

All of "it's a sin"
But especially when Colin tells his mum "I'm not dirty"

Debra Winger and Shirley Mclaine in Terms of Endearment. It affects me a lot that film. I can't even bare to watch it at times. She had such a complex relationship with her mum and was married to a complete womanising tosser and she was such a wonderful mum to her kids. She tried so hard working on her marriage and then she endured all those issues with her health. Such a great cast, Shirley Mclaine, Danny de vito, Jack Nicholson

@DeepSeededUrbanDecay
Ahhhh yes! This scene too!!! I said the one at the end with the dad but the picket line scenes are so moving too. I'm from the north east so I think I find them even more poignant.

The bit on Dumbo, seeing his mum in the cage.
That episode of EastEnders when Nigel has to tell Claire her mum has died. You don't hear the dialogue, just extended piano outro. While Grant Mitchell looks on sympatheticly from his car.
Some of the older episodes of the Simpsons. The one where Homer thinks he's dying and says goodbye to his sleeping kids. When Maggie's first word is Daddy. And when 'Michael Jackson' helps Bart write a song for Lisa.
The bit on the Elephant Man when he knows he's dying and sleeps normally (great movie but inaccurate)

bear not bare

This is Me scene. Especially when The 'freaks' feel used and discarded

Oh god yes! The Twelve Days of Christine! 😭

@TeamSpike I'm exactly the same, that whole scene with Van Gogh and when Eleven tells Amy life is made up of good bits and bad bits but the bad bits don't make the good bits any less good.

I cry every time. And when he kisses her forehead and cuddles her 😭😭😭😭

In Harry and The Hendersons (Bigfoot) when George has to punch Harry to get him to run away from the hunters. Also when Harry is looking at the deer's head trophy at George's and he looks behind the wall to see where the rest of the deer is.

My sister's keeper. Pretty much all of it.

The bit on the Elephant Man when he knows he's dying and sleeps normally

Ohhh yes. But also practically all of Bridges of Madison County when Meryl Streep has the chance of happiness but doesn’t take it ( she’d be dragged over the coals on the relationship board just for thinking about it)

ET. Every single time. I didn’t want him to “go home” 😆

i am legend

when the dog dies

Since becoming a Mum I can no longer watch Titanic purely because of these scenes, and the little frozen baby in the water.

I'm a big baby and cry at lots of stuff but most memorable would be

*Supernatural when Dean tells Sam what he did whilst in hell.

• Maze runner, death cure, when Newt's letter is being read out at the end.

• When Iron Man dies.

Yes to the end of Coco and Doctor Who and Vincent.

Lance in Cucumber. Oh, so sad. So sad.

Veronica Guerin when her husband has to tell their son what happened.

At least 75% of This Is Us

I can't read Time After Time without sobbing so don't see me lasting through the TV series.

I've seen it so many times and I'm still in bits every time! When eleven regenerates and says "ill always remember when the doctor was me" I'm silently sobbing, then Amy appears and I go into full blown ugly crying

The Simpsons episode "Mother Simpson" where Homer finds out is mother is alive after believing she had been dead since he was a boy. The whole episode is bittersweet but when she has to leave him again at the end and he sits on his car bonnet, into the dark, watching the stars. So sad.

Deep impact. I know it's a cheesy film but the bit on the beech where she holds her dad & says 'Daddy' & the bit where the mum gives her baby away & cries & the daughter says 'Ill see you soon', & then the mum & dad stand looking into each others eyes as the water heads for them, not caring, just loving each other

Yes, this makes me bawl! And when the main character is about to get in the helicopter and at the last minute discovers her friend with the young child and puts them on instead.

In Encanto when Mirabel touches the door handle to get her gift and the door disappears. It's the way she straightens her dress just before and then her little face when she realises something is wrong.😥

Yes to the two shirts in Brokeback Mountain.

In Up where he picks up Ellies 'Stuff I'm Going to Do' book and he thinks it's empty because they never got to go on their travelling adventures, but he realises she has actually filled it with photos of their normal life together as husband and wife - god, I welled up just typing that!

place marking to read later. Currently sitting waiting for ds at football training so not the place for bubbling which I will do if I keep reading 😪

Out of Africa where meryl Streep and Robert Redford are flying over the plains in a bi plane. Knowing that he dies makes it unbearable.

Another vote for Pride. The closing credits with Billy Bragg's " There is power in a union" ( which makes me cry anyway). Such a great film.

I love that Madison County ending too, so sad. His lovely smile.

Highlyquestionable Yes! & the bit where she is on the phone being told her mum is dead & her voice breaks when she says how old she is... (Too old to be 'allowed' to live)

Thisisit The Simpsons is sometimes really sad isn't it! The mother one that you said, & also there's one episode where Bart keeps trying really hard to do a test, & he still fails, & he cries & it just seems so genuine... That part always reminds me of myself at school when I'd try so hard but I still wasn't good enough.

I don't think I want to watch Cucumber after reading these!

About Time. His dad. The Nick Cage song "into my arms". 😭

But I do generally weep at everything.

The prostate cancer ad that's on just now on the lead up to Father's Day gets me every time. I miss my old Dad and my lovely father in law.
