Anyone unexpectedly feel down after watching certain films?

I watched salmon fishing in the yemen last night and for some reason I've felt down about it all today and can't get it out of my mind. I think it's something do with with Emily Blunt lol.

Yes, The Road. Although it's perhaps not surprising.

Yeah I've watched that as well. It wasn't the same feeling though. After watching the film I've been left wanting more from life. I think it's partially down to having a slight (massive) crush on Emily Blunt and knowing that my chances of finding anyone even remotely like her are very slim rofl

I might if I was slightly unstable mentally. But no, it's just a film.

The Mist.

I just sat there for a few minutes after the credits finished thing what the ****. Had to find something else to watch before I went to bed.

Requiem For A Dream is a classic unsettling film for me.

Arlington Road makes me disappointed for obvious reasons.

500 Days Of Summer makes me feel down that I can't have Zooey Deschanel.

I challenge anyone to watched Savior and not feel down for a few hours at least.

First time had me crying like a little kid, subsequent watchings have all ended with something in my eye.

Rambo has a proper emotional punch as well. The end that is.

Compulsory mention of Grave of the Fireflies and Watership Down.

the impossible was a bit too emotional and that stayed with me for the rest of the night. Also recently watched maniac and that was a bit intense, couldn't get that out of my head.

UK BBC Movie "Threads" about the Nuclear strike in Sheffield ( I think)...god its awful and leaves me feeling very scared of surviving a Nuclear bomb.

That has a hilarious ending, one of those few films that do it properly! It just summed up why everyone cheered watching it half way through and why generally staying put is a bad idea in a disaster situation...

The 1998 film, The Horse Whisperer.

Last episode of Morse.....

The end of Se7en does it for me, still feel depressed now...

i'd rather get emotional watching something that isn't real than get a "slight boner" over ryan gosling. your words, not mine....
