Saddest movie you have seen
What is the saddest movie you have seen ever in your life?
At first I thought it was Requim for a Dream, but recently I have realized the saddest movie ever is the one which completes a story started in 1977. Yes, thats right the saddest movie I think I have ever seen is Revenge of the Sith. |
Oops I forgot to also mention that Braveheart comes at a very close second place.
|
wtf people, bump.
|
i dunno wtf, Equi.
i'd say Birth recently brought me to tears, or would have if i'd been alone at home and not with some friend who doesn't appreciate emotional effusions..., Nicole wow, the end is... Donnie Darko did, three time at least, of 6 times seeing it, same thing, depending if i had company or not... that song makes me wanna die. The Myth of Fingerprints didn't, but leaves an aftertaste of void, and why the ****** life has to be like that? The Last Picture Show, and death IS a sad thing, and so is the memory of this particular movie with the woman of my life, lost in between somewhere, "a shame cuz i did like that dress", says Tori Amos... don't ask me. all of them in my fave list (that must contain some 12 movies or so??), and probably because they're sad, so it's important for me a movie is. The Man Who Wasn't There comes close and so does Levity, (both with Billy Bob Thornton) and Ghost World is, at the same time is not, sad, it's just, life. but well, life is, so... this last is among my faves, so i've been thinking of rewatching the two other ones, and may add them to my fave list then. (especially the first one mentioned) United States of Leland is no fun party either. highly recommended. |
Elephant man people, come on

me, it's the above mentioned movies more than that one... |
It used to be Watership Down but more recently it's:
Dolls (2002, Takeshi Kitano) It opened up old wounds and while I think it's a great film, it's not gonna be watched again in a hurry. :) http://www.dvdtimes.co.uk/images/noel/dolls4.jpg |
I'd have to say Mystic River. That whole movie was one big gut punch.
|
Crap, I forgot about some of these. Sometimes I never know whether or not to love a movie that opens up old wounds.
|
i wouldnt call it the saddest ever but Rain Man got to me the first time i saw it
|
A.I. or Dancer in the Dark...
|
There are alot of sad and tearjerkers for me...and a few threads already started on that topic...
....but I guess 'the' saddest movie for me was probaby Grave of the Fireflies (1988). The story of two kids who have no hope of survival really got to me. They were so sweet. :bawling: Saddest scene for me (which I know you didn't ask for, but I'm in a posting mood)...is toss up between... Sophies Choice...Her 'choice' haunted me and stayed with me for a few days. Rain Man...towards the end when the fire alarm goes off and Charlie falls apart...that hits way too close to home for me...Dustin was right on target. Pierces my heart every time. Tacitus ...I haven't seen Dolls...I'll have to look for it. |
Of Mice and Men (1992)
E.T. An American Tail Life is Beautiful All of those movies are sad to me. |
The Hours would definitley be up there
|
Woody Allen's Interiors - that thing depressed the hell outta me... yet, I still love it.

Irreversible, strange choice, the end (or beginning) is really happy, but then you remember the beginning (or end) and it all crashes and tore my heart :'(
(Dolls any good Tac? Looked a bit arty for me) |
The Yearling and Old Yeller are the saddest that come to mind right now...
|

It's evocative and beautifully shot but don't watch it with divorce papers in a nearby room... Dolls is pretty unique for Kitano, though if you've seen A Scene At The Sea, it's in a similar style. :) |
The Champ with John Voigt, gets me every time; Champ, champ don't die!
:bawling: |
SILENT RUNNING with Bruce Dern...............we are all doomed
|
City of Angels had me seriously crying
|
Magnolia makes me cry, along with Bambi
|
Lucky Fluke
American Beauty Braveheart |

Welcome to MoFo CorruptFrame...
American Beauty eh? For some reason I found the film to be quite uplifting. The concepts behind the film were very invigorating for me.... Some sad films: Requiem for a Dream Blade Runner (weep for Batty) Last of the Mohicans Bleu AI (more depressing than sad) |
I agree with Requiem for a Dream, but I think the saddest movie I've seen is Life is Beautiful (the one by Roberto Benigni).
|
In The Bedroom was quite sad, too.
|
Philadelphia with Tom Hanks
City of Angels also made me cry... |
1984 book and movie
|
Empire of the Sun. The young Christian Bale plays the gutsy lad Jim. Dunno if you've all seen it, so won't spoiler it - but the very end always has me in floods of tears. My eldest kid's called Jim too so I guess its an empathetic response more than the scene is sad (it still is tho)
I'm a terrible one for crying during films :blush: |
Requiem for a Dream, hands down. After having had experiences resembling those on camera, it struck a chord with me.
|
i agree with empire of the sun, very sad....i would ad galipoly, philadelphia was a terribly sad movie too...
|
Amistad
|
In Terms of Depressing War of the Worlds.
|
schindler's list
|
One of the movies that really hit my emotions was Remember the Titans, it was a very moving movie and was really sad at times.

I believe Requiem for a Dream is one of the saddest films I've seen, and there are parts of Magnolia that really get to me too. Schindler's List and the 1998 documentary The Last Days (also about the Holocaust) made me downright depressed for a while.

Am I the only one who though the end of Armageddon was sad?
|
Ive never seen Armageddon either:blush:, Another movie to add to my movies I haven't seen that everyone else on the planet has.
|
I've never seen fear and loathing in las vegas so we're even.
Yay! |
Fox and the Hound...gets me every time!!
|

Stop double posting and stop posting SPAM ... |
Id have to say Schindlers list was the saddest movie, forest gump is also really sad and one of my all-time favourites.
|
I saw Schindlers List in 2003 or 2004, and I've forgotten it...sad...I know.
Saddest movie ever? 2 Fast 2 Furious. NO MORE ATTEMPTS! Onto my true list....I think Memento is a sad film. A man who can't find the killer of his wife and can't remember anything anymore? One Flew over the Cuckoo's Nest the movie hyped me up for freedom, but I was let down (never read the book) Forrest Gump is quite sad. The ending just tears me into pieces. You wonder why sometimes. Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind Even though I disliked the movie, something so great that ends up ruined is bad. You should at least have the memories... |
In my mind, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless mind was a wonderful and happy film. At the end When shes saying that shell get bored with him he just says ok and accepts the bad things becasue all he wants is to be with her.

I don't understand why people like Moulin Rouge, definetly not my type of movie(therefore, I didnt think it was sad), I especially hate it when people sing the songs from that movie.

I thought The Notebook was sad:bawling:
|
Dumbo. Anyone who doesn't at least get a lump in their throat when Dumbo's visiting his mum when she's locked up, is an inhuman monster.
|
Dancer In The Dark
Salvador Breaking The Waves |

Well now the saddest and most depressing movie ive ever seen and, anyone whos seen it has to agree with me, is Requiem for a Dream. I would never watch that movie again for the pure fact that hte whole movie is about people going down the drain.
|
|
Magnolia
Requim For A Dream Moulin Rouge All three among my favourite movies. Schindlers' List i don't remember as quit sad, the ending isn't anyway. then I would rather say The Pianist, also a pretty damn good movie. |
The Notebook, A Love Song For Bobby Long
|
Don't Laugh but Oh God (having God respond to you and seeing him for the last time is sad in my book), Ghost, BackDraft, Somewhere in time and even Phenomenon were sad movies from the past. Recently, Snow Walker really surprised me as a good movie, Jersey Girl had its tear scene but I can't remember the movie but it has Denzel Washington and the girl from pitch black he's a bodyguard protecting a little girl. It has a sad ending as well.
|
Heavenly Creatures is damn sad, if you consider that Pauline and Juliet will never meet again, sad sad sad.
Dancer In The Dark and Breaking The Waves are sad, too. Every movie about abused women is sad, Dogville isn't that sad because Grace took her revenge in the end (btw i don't know what's going to happen to her in Manderlay\Wasington, but Von Trier is probably going to kill her.. that's the way). then requiem for a dream, full metal jacket, talk to her, one flew over the cuckoo's nest, chinatown, cries and whispers.. |
Saddest Film
Fluke (1995). That was a really sad one.
Saw just the last 40 minutes of it on July 23, 2000. |

|
Schindler's List
Jack the Bear (w/ Danny Devito) |

Requiem for a Dream. They should've never started drugs! Everybody don't do drugs! At least not heroin........or speed.
P.S. Antics better learn how to spell Tarantino or there is gonna be trouble. |
Message in a bottle. Every freaking time, I thought I was done crying, something new hit me. My wife and I won't watch it anymore.
|
Field of Dreams - gets me every time

La Strada Nights of Cabiria Paths of Glory To Kill A Mockingbird The Sand Pebbles Brian's Song The Killing Fields Goodbye Children My Life As A Dog Bastard Out of Carolina |
