thanks asshole, i haven't seen the movie. learn to spoiler tag.


saddest movie ive seen? good question.....i am not a bitch so I don't watch sad movies. lost in translation was probably the closest thing to a sad ending I can honestly remember.

Cowboy Bebop had a sad ending, only because it was only 24 episodes long =[

I tried to hide it when replying Sorry. It's still an incredible film you'll still love it.

I thought A.I. was pretty screwed up. The fact that they made an artificial version of their lost son and it was begging to be loved and accepted by it's parents. Not sure why, it just tore me up

The end of Saving Private Ryan - talk about a knife to the heart....

TV show rather than a movie, but what immediately came to mind was the last meeting between Prez and Dukey in The Wire. It really captured what substance abuse can do to someone

If were including TV Show I might have to say the last episode of Babylon 5.

Just finished watching it with the g/f (my 4th time watching it, her first), we had to stop like 3-4 times through the 40 minute episode because she was sobbing.

That episode of Silver Spoons when they went out to shoot a deer or dog or something.

Marley & Me - I cried buckets. I didn't even try to hold it back. It all started with that scene where Wilson starts off with that weird explanation to the vet, "I bet that figure (survival rate) applies to regular dogs."

Million Dollar Baby - The evolution of Eastwood and Swank's characters relationship through the course of the movie, Morgan Freeman, and the ending...excellent picture.

Up - A lot has been said about the first few minutes of the movie. Equally moving is that scene towards the third act where Carl starts leafing through Elie's Stuff I'm Going to Do scrapbook.

Titanic - People love making jokes about it but fact is, Kate Winslet completely owned that movie. Call me a hopeless/idiot romantic but that movie told the story of a woman who fondly remembered this guy she met 85 years ago, knew for probably about 72 hours, yet he completely changed the course of her life. 85 years later, she still loves him and his memory - and I believed it. And so did millions of people.

Plus, the scene where Jack tells her she's going to die an old woman, warm in her bed after living a full life - and then you see the final scene with all the pictures of her having done exactly that, resting in her bed, and then passing on from this life to one where she reunites with Jack (with all the dead people cheering on) - it was beautifully done.

But the saddest movie to me is probably 21 Grams. Not necessarily the type that makes you cry but one heck of a downer.

Edit: And I agree with Saving Private Ryan (gets me every time) and Schindler's List, but those kinda go without saying.

Marley and Me was pretty fucking sad and depressing.

I also thought Passion of the Christ was really sad. i remember when i saw it in the theatre and at the end of the movie, it was like dead silent in that theatre ... very odd when everyone is walking out of a sold out movie theatre and it is dead slient.

I also thought We Were Soldiers was pretty sad.

:thumbsup: The Green Mile (cried so hard i had a headache for 3 days)

:thumbsup: Saving Private Ryan (sad sad, but! oddly enough, watched in the theater with some buds and ended up laughing our asses off and getting yelled @ by some old lady "I guess you just weren't worth saving!"

:thumbsup: Life is Beautiful

:thumbsup: Million Dollar Baby

And finally, one that no one has mentioned "The Outsiders". I remember watching this as a kid (probably about 7 years old) and just bawling my eyes out but trying to maintain because i had my older brothers and parents behind me in the room.
