I remember Click (2006) being very sad, but I haven't watched it in a long time.
Man that scene when he is screaming at himself while in auto pilot was brutal and gut wrenching
The dad scene killed me
I have become this dad. I think about these scenes often. It helps me remember and realign my priorities. I guess it's corny, but the message is valid and important.
Not a movie, but has anybody here seen the anime Anohana. If you can watch that and not cry in every episode, you're a bonafide sociopath.
Magnolia by Paul Thomas Anderson. The whole movie is pretty emotional but the scene where Tom Cruise's character confronts his absentee father on his death bed absolutely destroys me.
One of my all time favorite movies, but I gotta be ready to full on cry if I want to watch it.
When Rudy's dad tears up seeing his son on the field
Marley dying at the end of Marley and Me
"It's not your fault" - Good Will Hunting
The ending to that depressing as fuck Speilberg film A.I. Don't ever watch it unless you want to ruin your day.
Man I had forgotten about A.i.
Poor dude waited until the end of time to have his wish granted
THIS scence from "Platoon" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QEv3zzKyiFQ
The music is adagio for strings which has to be the saddest most emotional score ever
"A dog's purpose" movie's main purpose was to be tear jerker.
Ernest Goes to Camp, when the kids pick on him and reject him. He sings the song “All I Needed Was a Friend”. No joke, shit hits hard
"Despite knowing the journey and where it leads, I embrace it. And I welcome every moment of it."
“You could never just do the expected, I was just an idea in a bog, But you sewed up your dream and we made quite a team, Jim and Kermit, a boy and his frog.”
- Tom Smith - A Boy and His Frog
It's not a movie, it's an old avertisement, and I guarantee you if it doesn't stir something in you, you're not human:
That crash was so cartoonish, I couldn't help but laugh at that.
the street performance scene in bocchi the rock, no matter what ill always start crying when i watch it
My Life with Michael Keaton and Nicole what’s her name
This is the top of the list. Nothing else comes close when you need a really good and sincere cry.
The fault in our stars was so sad I wish I hadn't ever watched it. I hate that movie.
Silver Linings Playbook. A real tear jurker. The scene at the end.
The Christmas Dinner at the end of "Seven Fishes" Season 2 of The Bear. Cuts a little too much on the dotted line for me.
"I love you Daddy" -Clannad
Every time and even when I just think about it
The Wild Robot if you're a parent.
When Pepper tells Tony he can rest.
The end of Onward
Tossing some anime in here:
Anohana Violet Evergarden Fullmetal Alchemist (watch Brotherhood, but the scenes I'm thinking of but even harder in the original)
You want some ugly crying anime time? Grave of the fireflies. The saddest movie studio Ghibli ever produced. If you don't cry you might want to see a therapist. It's what I show everyone who has ever told me "I don't cry at movies."
