Saddest Movie You've Seen

Marky · 29 Mar 2009 at 22:16

Hey all,

After seeing the "Secret Millionaire" thread in GD, it made me think about films that have brought me to tears.

So.. I ask you - What is the most upsetting movie you've ever seen?

Mine is "United 93", it's a movie about the plane that was mean't to be part of the 9/11 attack, but it was foiled by the passengers as they fought their way to the cockpit in an attempt to take over the plane.

The nearer it got to the ending, the more I cried - and I don't mind saying it, afterwards I was full-on-crying

I also saw Seven Pounds recently and I thought that was quite sad

Monster, Serenity, Grave of the Fireflies, lots of different anime series'. Anime is always the saddest.

Easy. Cool Runnings. Its the film that has come closest to having me in tears (and I'm pretty sure I don't even have tear glands). The scene with them carrying the bobsleigh on their shoulders gets me every single time.

As already said, The Champ. But then I'm a sensitive old sod and many films play high havoc with my emotions!

Forrest Gump, gets me everytime.

Also saw a film called Bicentenial Man when i was younger, had Robin Williams in it i believe, that was sad

.

Lots of sad anime movies, but that could branch off into its own category lol.
