hello what is the sadest movie
The Pianist. I cry every time.
>>221200603Dead Man's Letters is a downer
When The Wind Blows
>>221200603Stroszek is pretty grim
>>221200603Dr.Horrible's sing-along blogNot kidding. Seriously can't help but cry at the end every time.
train dreams gave some existential dread
>>221200603brought me to tears desu
>>221200603Dancer In The Dark & Breaking The Waves are kinda sad if you don't like innocent females suffering. (Of course some people don't mind that. And LvT is so OTT and manipulative you might just end up laughing anyway.)The Age Of Innocence is extremely downbeat, in an understated way.
in recent memory, i watched sorry, baby and i was full of dread by the end
>>221200603Lilja 4-Ever
>>221200603probably the road, if you pay attention
>>221200659funny fiction. an emaciated rat playing the piano, funny shit
>>221200927Why?
For me it's Bobby Deerfield
>>221200603Gleason is a rough doc to sit through.NFL player gets ALS right around the time his first kid is born.
>>221200603Noi The Albinoiykyk
>>221201147if you haven't read the novel I highly recommend it, the last page alone makes it worth a read. The movie was surprisingly faithful from what I remember, but I watched it years before reading the book
I remember The Green Mile hit me like a ton of bricks. I liked that magical black rapist
>>221200603I think a film has to be really good to be really sad. Of course less-good films can be tearjerkers, but deep melancholy is hard to achieve. First you have to actually care about the characters. And second you have to end up believing that in some way life is really like this.Cries and Whispers (Bergman) is pretty depressing. Two nasty sisters, one nice one. Guess which one is dying of cancer?Tokyo Story is very sad, in an understated sort of way.In The Mood For Love: more understated melancholy. Like The Age Of Innocence, it's all about the regret for what might have been but wasn't.
>>221200603My Life[/spolier]
the elephant man. have never cried that hard at a movie. except maybe portrait of a lady on fire, close second
I have never cried so much in my life.
Sympathy for Lady Vengeance.The Father.Leviathan.Tyrannosaur.Depends what kind of flavour you want. Dead children, Alzeimer's destroying someone's sanity, someone being wrongfully imprisoned, or domestic abuse and alcoholism.

>>221200603Your life
>>221200603Not even memeing.Korea makes the majority of movies that make me tear up. I went through a stage of watching their biggest kinos and there were tons that choked me up.
Silent Running

>>221202718Good movie but it isn't sad
Aftersun is a sad movie
Grave of the Fireflies
>>221201832From laughter
>>221200869>I accidentally murdered the girl who was banging Chad Fillion instead of me like she was heckin supposed to because I was heckin nice to her! Woe is me!In hindsight we should’ve clocked Whedon for what he was a lot sooner. Are we stupid?

Infinity War.
>>221200603Manchester By the Sea is just a story about everything going wrong.
>>221200965DDancer in The Dark final scene literally left me with chills
A Million Dollar Baby is also pretty sad
>>221200603The Iron Claw>i used to be a brother
>>221206576i thought i'd be more sad watching that after hearing all the hype around it. more than anything i found myself mad at casey affleck's character largely because most of everything wrong in his life is his fault and he basically doesn't even pretend to want to change let alone actually tries
>>221206610He's just a weak guy. Like he said, he can't beat it. Not the drinking, not the depression, not his constant mistakes. He's just not the hero the people thought he could be and he doesn't have it in him to step up and change.
>>221200603when the wind blows
>>221200603When it happens,you will simply read the newspaper from yesterday. Maybe you will ask your wife for a cup of coffee and have your regular small talk with her. You will rant about politics while you wonder about the radio not working.
>>221205890Are you kidding? It's fucking crazy sad.
Almodovar won the Oscar with the wrong movie
My parents made me watch it when I was 6 or 7. I'm still scarred.
This is definitely a top contender for one of the saddest things I’ve ever seen, aided by the fact that it’s actually a mini series of stand-alone short stories that are roughly an hour long but holy crap is it complete depression fuel. Every single episode is soul crushing but it’s brilliantly done, the visual storytelling is unprecedented and the way everything vaguely connects really ties the whole show together in a compelling way.
>>221201098This.
>>221200603If you can look past the gratuitous violence and gore, picrel.Rex really was a good-er boy then he will ever know.
>>221207786visual reddit
>>221207918Do you even know what words mean
>>221206576>>221206610>>221206657literally me and my life except Casey Affleck got laid
>>221200603korean movie called 'unforgettable', but only because it tricks you with the sad violins and crying faces. you can't help but feel sad, unless you have the tism.
>>221201182The real answer.
>>221206509Yeah I saw this in the theater and was torn up at the end. Kid got that tank ride.
>>221207895You freaks think this meme is funny but my mind is literally fractured after viewing this filth. I will never be a whole person again.
>>221201161Trying too hard.
>>221200603Child’s Play. You’re seeing a child slowly having his innocence ripped away from him forever. That final shot of him looking back at the charred remains of Chucky as he closes the door represents him looking at his ruined innocence and closing and door on the part of himself that is gone forever. Shit’s deep. The original Toy Story is deeply depressing too when you really watch it.
>>221208034If it’s not even sad but the music tricked you into being sad, you might actually be the autistic one I hate to break it to you.
Is there any movie where the mc fucks his life up beyond repair, wasting all his potential and hope in the process, but neither dies nor kills himself in the end and has to live his own cursed timeline in which it's hinted that nothing good is ever going to happen to him again?
What dreams may come is pretty sad
>>221200603I cried during three movies this year most years its 0. Maybe its a bit of a chest because its animal movies, with Sheep Detectives and sort Remarkably Bright Creatures but also Project Hail Mary.I realize this thread is for super depressing and bleak though, I usually avoid that stuff.
>>221207895The scene where Connor visits Fido's grave and apologizes for killing him really breaks my heart every time. When he collapses and just repeats "It wasn't worth it," until the veterinarians come to take him away. All he ever wanted was to play catch in the park.
>>221204686filtered brownoid
House of Sand and Fog. No contest. Only movie where I saw the protagonist attempt suicide twice.
>>221206188for me it's the domble take at 0:05
>>221200603Relentlessly depressing.
>>221208387The Irishman.
>>221208809the Swedish book?
You can't imagine what dreams may come, no matter your religion, be it judaic or islamic.
>>221204686if you thought The Road had complicated writing, stick to cartoons because you're objectively retarded
>>221208809didn't make me sad as much as it just felt like misery porn
i guarantee nobody here has seen this
The Ballad of Buster Scruggs... You know which one
>>221206576I really wanna watch this but I hate Michelle william's face so damn much
>>221209527They are all very dramatic in their own ways but yeah. Slow west too.

Werckmeister Harmonies this scenehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HtiAtUg6S8QIf you haven't seen the film you can't understand. not "sad" exactly, but very much wet-eyed sort of scene
Some contenders for me:>Merry Christmas, Mr. Lawrence>Bridge to Terabithia>Voices of a Distant Star
Great expectations made me feel for everyone in it. The kid falling madly in love, the girl being used by her grandmother, the uncle who wanted the beat for his nephew and the escaped convict trying to repay a favor.
>>221210014*The uncle who wanted the best for his nephew.Can't forget the ethereal theme song by life in mono.
>>221201578>the regret for what might have been but wasn'tthis is why the end of chungking express makes me very sad. its supposed to seem happy but its not.
>>221200603Ghibli's Grave of the Fireflies is really sad
>>221201832Boomer goyslave catnip
>>221201832hahahahahahaha faggot
>>221207895Dogs can't join the military.
>>221208387La Strada, which incidentally is also a movie I could have posted
>>221209578I get what you mean
>>221210861Have you ever seen this film? I don't think you would joke about it if you had, what those poor dogs went through in Saigon is truly harrowing, especially the "raw dog-food" scene and what happened to Fido.
>>221201832obligatory https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BjM6X58Fg0o
>>221200603Good Time Grave of the Fireflies Manchester by the Sea The Rover Dumbo These are subjective, I think what makes you feel sadness is even more specific to you than what makes you feel happiness I instantly completely lose any ability to feel sadness when it feels forced or feels like miseryporn, I tend to get feels when I read into something a lot or if I realize too late that I relate to it personally. Looking up 'sad movies' or whatever is gonna turn up exactly zero movies that would make me feel things Man on Fire got me pretty good when I first watched it, there's just something about people who have stopped believing in themselves finding it easy to believe in others, especially innocent and bright people. And anyone going to their death with a smile is a big deal to me if it's written right
>>221206219>221206188you guys just found the new best meme ever
>>221214640this is not a movie
>>221201832
>>221214659you are right: it's 3 movies, it's a trilogy: 3x3, in one season.
Picrel ''Warrior'' might be a weird pick but every time I watch it, it brings me to tears. Maybe it is because I have brothers.>>221200896Second this, Train Dreams made me feel some extremely serious thoughts and I was in all sorts for a couple of days.
>>221200927Was gonna post this. Good taste anon
>>221214683no, its a tv show, not a movie. pick an actual movie faggot

>>221200603The one you can't remember the name of even though you remember a couple lines and google and AI can't help.Alternatively the one you can't identify because you only saw a few minutes of it but it looked interesting.
>>221207769Who taped a yarmulke on that poor dogs head?
>>221215370I see a lot of pretentious depressionslop Just admit you're french atp and admit you're incapable of genuine sadness
>>221215419which ones? I made the list years ago so I don't think Happiness really belongs there, Detachment is also very cheesy
>>221200965God I hope someday Criterion or someone releases an updated version of Dancer in the Dark. The dvd quality is pretty shitty for such a great movie.
>>221215298>söyboyFunny word coming from a grown faggot who cries about anime.
>>221215585I haven't cried since I was a teenager It's sad because a clueless kid gets his little sister killed you moron
>>221200603I don't know if the definitively saddest, but this whole film is a bad time.
>>221215688>It's sad because a clueless kid gets his little sister killed you moronIn a gay cartoon that isn't real life
>>221215193I saw the explosion clip where the dog bites onto the metal rail and its teeth melt. That shit turned me off ever watching that film. I'd also just spent a month studying the effects of nuclear bombs while writing a paper, so the whole thing felt way more visceral.
>>221215800oh sorry my bad you're ACTUALLY a teenager. sorry for engaging with you

>>221216036> bloon
>>221200603Haven't seen it in a long time, might give it another watch.
I felt literally so bad and cried like a bitch during this.>inba NOOOOO NOT THE HECKING GOOD BOY DOGGORIINOO
>>221207895I still don't understand how producers could have allowed the scene with the vietnamese kittens to be filmed.
https://www.youtube.com/shorts/cZJ54My3I0oChild actress Judith Barsi, who played Anne Marie, was killed in an apparent murder-suicide by her father over a year before All Dogs was released. Bluth recalled that the animation team was too upset to work on scenes involving Anne Marie for two weeks after Barsi's death, as animating required them to listen to cassette recordings they had of her voice. Burt Reynolds apparently needed over a dozen takes to say his goodbyes in the final scene because he kept breaking down crying.

>>221201832A+ post
>>221201578>And second you have to end up believing that in some way life is really like this.This is why I would select Dogville... not a tear-jerker, but really a heartbreaking film. Powerfully makes the case that we should not have been given forgiveness for the crucifixion; that for the rotten "society" in which we are complicit we all deserve to die
>>221215298Not him, but he's right. It's hard to feel sorry for the kids when the boy is so frequently ruining his sister's life that it almost feels deliberate on his part. Yeah, it's sad when the sister dies, but it's hard to emphasize with the boy when he fucking killed her.>Should I stay with this lady who wants to help us?>Or should I subject my sister and myself to a slow and painful death?>Hmmm... Choices, choices
>>221217754It's a metaphor for Imperial Japan being stubborn in its self destructive decision making, leading to the deaths of innocent people they were supposed to protect. He did to his sister what his nation did to him.
Why do soillennials like crying so much?
>>221217938idk it feels good
>>221200603Tv show but the day I became a god
>>221217938
>>221217907Wasn't it made by a guy who it actually happened to, in memory of his sister or somesuch?
>>221216206This movie is fucking insanely good and you can tell when people talk about it if they get it or not. Amazingly acted and produced
>>221218130This fucking movie. I know I know but I felt so much watching this the first time. I was a sadkunt at the time, kind of beat up and weirdly related to the main guy but it really does work on multiple levels Also animated to the point of perfection holy shit. Gonna get some whiskey and sit down with this one again soon
>>221217754That's what makes it so sharply tragic for me. What does a young man feel when he sees his younger sibling get hurt and suffer? Forget pain, forget fear of being told it was your fault- the main fear is that you will naturally put that guilt on yourself. Forever. There is no pivoting to 'It was war, it wasn't your fault, you were too young to know what to do' because he simply fucked up really badly and he has to live with that. THAT is what makes it so sharply painful. I haven't cried in years, I'm not a self pitying kind of person, but the idea of my sheltered little siblings getting hurt instantly undoes all the numbness I have and makes me think I need to tamp down my emotions. I love this movie because it's brutally human, and yeah it does piss you off but it's when you understand it fully that it only makes you feel pain and sadness
>>221208285>If it’s not even sadnever said that. but the music and way it's shot has been scientifically designed to make you cry. or make you sad at least.did my using the word tism offend you, ma'am?
>>221202718Kinda off topic but every single anon in this thread should watch Memories of Murder, it's fucking amazingly good and totally redpilled me on korean movies as a teen, even though I had already watched oldboy back then
>>221220267someone drop the clip where he dropkicks the new detecive in the ditch because he thinks he's harassing a woman I'm too drunk and my laptop has 4g of RAM
kiss of the spider woman 1985 has the saddest ending I've ever seen
>>221217938I'm kind of a shut in so it's nice to experience a range of emotions every now and then
>>221216206the scene in the street with Randi is so unbelievably brutal
>>221220267You can't really go wrong with a Song Kang-Ho movie, A Taxi Driver also made me tear up a bit.
The only thing that made me cry this year, was expressing to a friend how much I care for him and every advice I give to him is because I want him to get better. I started crying because no one has ever said something similar to me for my whole life, not even my parents.
>>221201883Leviathan wasn't sad, just depressing, unfair and boring. Also half of the time people are drunk and having drunk arguments.It's hard to feel sad when at some point you simply do not care anymore.
>>221210861He’s a bomb sniffing dog, ends up getting nearly suicide bombed at a school, comes back goes berserk attacking everything’s and crying and breaking down . It’s a Ruff movie
>>221220827>he says and posts the most ubiquitous miseryporn movie Ex gf made me watch that shit, absolutely should have made me realize back then she was broken
drag me to hell
>>221217456that hits kinda hard being just a couple posts after >>221217277
I didna cry when me own father was hung for stealin' a pig... But I’ll cry now
The part where he breaks down sobbing on his friends couch. Also, the movie ends with the kind of bleak admittance that he'll never truly be able to get over his grief and trauma.
>>221215769This film ruined grocery store produce displays for me.
>>221222248>bleak admittance that he'll never truly be able to get over his griefI mean, that's just true. You don't get over grief.Tennyson once wrote—and I won't claim it's among his best lines, but—:>Let Love clasp Grief lest both be drown'dThis line seemed to me at first a little awkward because clasping another person while drowning is a great way to drown both. There is some excuse for it however.Each, on its own, fades. Love and grief are equally forgotten in time. They persist only by an active supporting each of the other: we hold onto grief because it is the only way to preserve our love which has lost its object and will otherwise 'drown'. Drowning matters here because these are the uncreating waters, the waters at the beginning and the end. These are the "waste sad time, stretching before and after". This is the continuing, infinite, empty time, absent the beloved; a particularity, having existed for a moment only, dissolves back into the stream. Who can accept that? We struggle against this as long as we are here. Our love is in eternity, not in time.
