Hard Soap, Hard Soap is a soap opera parody, so I suppose there are melodramatic scenes, just played for comedy. That's all I got. On this note, For Richer, For Poorer (1979) is more drama than melodrama, but it has a great Georgina Spelvin performance and an extended dream sequence in the middle. On a completely different note, a lot of Bollywood hits melodramatic notes, but for most I've seen that would be out and out melodramas, it's been way too long since I've seen them and my memories are too hazy to give clear recommendations. One I do remember well enough is Anand (1971), which was kinda, sorta remade into the Shahrukh Khan extravaganza Kal Ho Naa Ho (2004). The former is probably more worth your time but I remember 13 year old Rock crying during the latter. |
Hard to believe this is devolving into Minio just telling mofos how basic their tastes are. :D He’s back baby!

I'm wondering why he even started this thread...he's shot down very single recommendation. |
Re: Melodrama Recommendations
I actually liked the recs from cricket and PumaMan. Not my fault I've seen so many films.

I do wonder why you’ve made this thread, as you have the means of looking for melodramatic films via the internet, and are capable of finding recommendations of films you haven’t seen, or allegedly seen, on your own without the typical running commentary that comes from these types of threads you make. |

It's good to get out of your comfort zone from time to time.

I find it hard to believe that, with the amount of films you have claimed to have seen, you haven’t already. Especially since you’ve already seen most of the recommendations that’s already been mentioned.
