Your saddest movie...

[Open-Peacemind]

What movie did you cry the most or thought it was sad??

I think mine is....

I don't really know...

I can't recall right now....

But please free to post!

I recently saw the movie Love Story on television.  That movie made me cry, and I don't usually cry when watching a movie.  It was a beautiful story.

 The saddest movie I ever saw was Beaches.  Great story of what it means to be a best friend.  LOVE IT!

I usually think its sad when there are animals in the movie and the family goes through hardships..

so sad.......

When it comes to sad movies there's Old Yeller and then there's everything else.

Grave of the Fireflies.

Penny Serenade.    Irene Dunne and Cary Grant.

My Boy Jack  I bawled through the entire second half of this film.  No lie.

Toy Story 3  This is what happens when you don't play with your toys because you're a grownup!!  Sad

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Part 1     I started crying at the beginning when Hermione says "Obliviate" and she disappears from all her family pictures, like she never existed.  So sad.

Definitely "Brian's Song"....The original with James Caan.

I just watched 50/50 for the 3rd or 4th time.  Right before the main character goes into surgery when he calls out for his mother, gets me every time.

Les Miserables, which came out at Christmas.

I was crying hopelessly when Fantine sang "I had a Dream", when Marius sings "Empty tables, Empty Chairs.

And of course, when Valjean sings "Let Him Live."

They should sell boxes of tissues at the popcorn stand.

I too cried when Anne Hathaway sang "I have a Dream". She gave such emotion in her performance, didn't she?

My top tear jerkers:  The Color Purple and The Green Mile. When men sob in a movie, you know it's powerful. I do remember seeing Little Women in the 90s and the man sitting behing me (one of two in the theatre) sobbing and gasping after Beth died when the housekeeper was dropping rose petals around the room.

Yes, an outstandingly sad movie is when men cry like babies. My father, who NEVER cries, nowhere, no way, no how... was sobbing at "I had a Dream"... I couldnt' believe it was him...

runny nose, blurry eyes.... not a pretty sight.

The sight of my 80-year-old father bawling, open-mouthed, shocked me so much, I stopped crying.  Just to stare at him.

I know there are more than this, but off the top of my head, here are a couple of movies that made me cry:

Old Yeller: 2 Movie Collection  

Marley & Me  

Evita  

Brokeback Mountain  

[MacMcK1957]

When it comes to sad movies, there are two categories:

1. Old Yeller
2. Everything else.
