schindler's list; it is very very sad and a great film to watch although its depressing.

most movies about the holocaust are sad cuz this stuff still happens and we haven't learned from it

requiem for a dream, sweet hereafter, one flew over the cuckoos nest, leaving las vegas, irreversible, elephant man, happiness, braveheart, blow, glory, paths of glory.

hey, they told me "A Walk To Remember" is a very sad movie, when u see it you will cry. I saw it but I didnt cry, it was sad but not sooo sad... Does anyone know a really sad movie that makes you cry, that really touches you...

Moving to Movie discussion
Moving--moved

I am Sam

The Passion of the Christ...sadest movie ever.

If you don't insist on live action movies, then you might like a truely depressing animated movie called Grave of the Fireflies

The Passion was great but I didn't even get the slightest amount of wetness to my eyes during it. Mystic River was also pretty sad and the end of Last Samurai got to a lot of people.

how did last samurai get to anyone ?
Powder is the only movie of all time that got to me ..

old yeller was sad

It didn't get to me but I know lots of people (male and female) that teared up during Tom Cruise's speach to the emperor at the end.

Yeh that speech brought me to tears...it was so lame I laughed my ass off!

No movie has ever brought out the waterworks for me but Donnie Darko was pretty sad.

i was crying during glory and i cried wen danny died in pearl harbor... nd i was hysterical during the passion i also cried really hard during the end of edward scissorhands... that was soo sadd... POOR EDWARD isolated in the castle forever!!!!!!!
crybaby

The Passion of The Christ

Braveheart

Fox & Hound

Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King

Land Before Time (the 1st 1)

Braveheart was sad at parts

Schinlers list.

The real reason why this movie was sadder than any others is that it actually did happen

cast away
forrest gump

ok i jus seen passion and omg i wasnt really crying ... more than i was angry ... see . i wasnt crying of sadness . i was crying of anger .. so um yeah

Just saw Cold Mountain today, and that was very sad. I also saw Passion, and that was sad in it's presentation of this well known story. The thing that touched me most about The Passion was the many people crying out loud in the audience.

thats what stopped my crying .. cause it made me laugh for some reason !

THe Lion King when Mufasa(sp) dies... I wouldn't watch that movie for a long time after i seen that!

I watched that film for the first time when it came out on video in the uk a few months ago, and it has been one of my fave movies ever since. i watched it almost every night for a week.

i thought castaway was kinda sad like when he says to his old girlfriend "i never should have gotten on that plane" cos he knew he lost her forever, the music in end really captures the feeling, titanic, (mainly cos jack seemed so loving) pearl harbor was kinda......forrest gump made me sniffle too

Anyone see the end of She's having a baby starring Kevin bacon? The bit where his wife was giving birth ( with Kate bush singing This womens work) was a very emotional moment.

simon birch was sad also

The sadest movie ever is Ned Kelly!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I havent cried so much at a film before the acting from Heath Ledger
and Orlando Bloom was exellent!!!!!!

Also when pippin sings in Return of The King i ball my eyes out.

LOTR FREAK rocks, best movies in the world!!!$$$%%%^&*****

Return of the king made me cry.
and ned kelly is a great movie and that is very sad

THe part in Gladiator when he arrives home to find his wife and kid hung and burned.

Exactly, that's the one Very sad

The Passion of The Christ
X2
Dragon Heart
E.T.
DragonFly
the haunted mansion,in a different way,(pee your pants way)

There are so many sad movies. If I had to pick one it would be Ponette (1996).

BRAVEHEART- Y'know it truly amazes me that so many people can find this contrived, Mel Gibson vehicle so good and engrossing! I mean, this three hour monument to Hollywood celebrity ego has been voted as one of the top 100 greatest films ever made on the Internet Movie Database (http://www.imdb.com/)! That's scary, when it's nothing more that a 'Lethal Weapon' film in a tartan kilt!

Now, Gibson being Gibson, isn't the sort of guy that ever lets anything like historical accuracy get in his way during a over hyped pet project. This film, that strongly implies that it's realistic because there was a real life William Wallace, scales the heights of lunacy in its attempt to pander to the modern political correctness of modern American audiences. Especially with the inclusion of an Irish freedom fighter on the side if the Scots to give it a nice contemporary feel to people who don't know anything about Northern Ireland.

Yet, Gibson single-handedly hijacks a 700 year old Anglo-Scottish conflict and gives us a ridiculously, inaccurate, distorted and downright fictional telling of the real life freedom fighter. Not only do we have barmy story plots, like Wallace's fictional affair with Princess Isobelle, but Gibson vainly puts himself into the role of Wallace. A role that, quite frankly, he was two decades too old to play. Not that his female co-star was played by an older actress. No, he pairs himself with a young, trim Scottish actress!

Add to this the over the top characterization and stereotypes, stuck in by director Gibson and writer Randall Wallace in a particularly hamfisted way. The English are just so ridiculously evil, they come across as cartoonish. Not only do they enact a fictional law called 'Prima Nocta' to give them the right to have it off with Scottish brides, but they're all either effeminate, weaklings or rabid psychopaths. I suspect the 'breeding the Scots out of the population' bit was stuck in to associate the English with NAZI racial policy during W.W.II.

How does Gibson portray 'his' side? Well, the Scots are all honest, innocent, good hearted and simple village folk. Y'know, like something out of the Munchkin Village in 'The Wizard of Oz'. They spend their days farming, visiting Ewok village style town festivals, having it off naked in frigid valleys and romancing each other on horseback. Completely oblivious and uninvolved in the affairs of their country.

Off course, once stoked up to full killing power by English atrocities, Gibson effortlessly slays every Englishman north of Carlisle. Inflicting a crushing defeat on the English at the Battle of Stirling Bridge in 1297. Which Mr. Ego totally re-writes to remove the river, the bridge, the tactics used and the half of the English army that retreated south.

Other liberties taken include Wallace's fictional taking of the English city of York and the implication that Wallaces's amazing leadership almost resulted the the complete and utter defeat of England, when the real life Wallace only raided on and around the Anglo-Scottish border. Oh well, I guess Gibson's self hero worshiping can't be blamed for not taking 'little' details like this into account. After all, we only want to be entertained.

Needless to say, the wicked English defeat Wallace by foul, underhand means. Accompanied by the strong implication that King Edward I was far too cowardly to face Wallace man to man. Even resorting to sending Princess Isobelle north to negotiate with our hunky hero and his monstrously over the top wig. Huh! Despite the fact that the real life Edward was a cunning and strong warrior king who fought campaigns in England, Wales, Scotland, France and the Middle East! Ah, the unnecessary English bashing just doesn't ever stop in this drivel...

Thankfully Wallace meets his miserable end eventually, putting us all out of ours too. The film then goes on to suggest that Scotland 'won their independence forever', nicely disregarding subsequent centuries of Anglo-Scottish history to boot in its highly simplistic 'happy, smiles' Hollywood ending.

Bottom line, this film is contrived, highly biased, emotionally manipulative, revisionist when it suits its own cause and poorly written when it comes to attitudes of the day. Would the real Wallace use a blatantly modern sounding phrase to berate the English commander at the Battle of Stirling Bridge? "put his head between his legs and kiss his own a**e", hmmm, yeah, right! Also, this film was released to coincide with some local Scottish elections, giving a nice boost to the Scottish National Party. Nice one their Mel, eh!

Blow of course. and Schindlers List. And Elephant man was pretty depressing.

The Passion
Princess Bride
The Lion King
City of Angels
Matrix Revolutions
DareDevil (cemetary scene....Evanescence My Imortal just did something to me in that scene)
and this Steve Martin Movie...the name of it is on the tip of my tongue but I can't write it right now...it's where this billboard gives him advice and stuff. Towards the end the scene with him in the rain kinda made me cry.
there are other movies but I can't think of them right now

Oops, almost forgot Say Anything

Untamed Heart starring Christian Slater...he dies at the end..and i always end up cryingcrybaby

One of the most saddest Western movie I can remenber is The Great Silence. Corbucci was a good director of Italiano-Westerns. This movie has to be one of his best. The ending was very unpredictable.

the Little Princess still remains the saddest movie i've ever seen. movies now are really not moving enough

ps there is no such term as "most saddest"

AI is the saddest movie I've ever seen
........god, I cried....

Watership Down. The one with the rabbits who have to move out of that field coz that small rabbit keeps having halucinations about the field filling with blood and the holes being covered and hundreds of rabbits squashed and sufficating. The bit where the main rabbit dies or when big wig gets caught in that rabbit trap.

Oh god yes..Watership Down always gets me crying all the time..esp when the song plays..Bright Eyes etc etc crybaby

the movies that i think are sad are-
walk to remember
pearl harbour
the god soon
titanic
o
and heaps more

the bits that make me cry are
walk to remeber=when landen finds out she has cancer
pearl harbour=whan danny dies
o=when they all die at the end except josh hartnett then he gets taken away
titanic=when jack dies

titanic=when jack dies

I was laughing my head off when Jack died.

there was more than enough room on that door for the both of, but no...she had to be fat and make him die of cold!


Return to paradise - i cried the first time, but learnt from my mistake the other times and now i try my hardest not to crybaby

I always thought that, yeh they could have both survived, or if she had the door thing then she could have at least given him her clothes. O now that wood have been awesome.

Don't know if it was mentioned, but "In America" had some real sad moments.

i have to say butterfly effect

Bubba Ho-Tep

Cast Away and Butterfly effect

The films How to Deal and Thirteen were depressing, but only because I was so upset I wasted my time watching them.

for me it was full of hope.

I'm gonna say,

Tom Hanks in "Road To Perdition".

Life As A House

watch it and you'll know why

Elephant Man

eastern condors

butterfly effect ends with everything workin out how is that depresing?

Awakenings

butterfly Effect wanst depressing, it was a happy ending

not really since he didnt get to be with his girl. that was kinda sad. and other parts of the movie were depressing

The only thing depressing in that movie was Asstone Kutchers acting.

But it wasnt, in the end he never existed so everything was well!

You cant miss what you never had.

in one ending that happened

Yeah his mother had her 4th miscarriage when her baby choked to death in her womb. Thats some giggle - inducing happy ending right there. Big grins all round.

I kinda agree: the film was finally friggin over - so i was happy.

hahahaha agreed!


Requiem for a Dream
Dancer in the dark
Moulin Rouge
The Virgin Suicides
American Splendor
Lost in Translation (depends how you take it)
Chinatown
My Girl (oh god --childhood memories)
Spun
Blow
Braveheart

I now realize that I have a movie about her.oine, cocaine and speed. Weird.

not wierd blow is sad. and i thought ashton was good

i like that ending when he is meeting the girl few years later on the street.
i think they could get together then

but it was weird how I had all three of the most addicting drugs in the world.. Ashton was good for him so I'll give him that, but he still wasn't good to me.

DUDE CAST AWAY WAS 1 SAD SAD MOVIE

some people would say ashtons acting job was horrible regardless how good he did.. its just them bieng biased against him.. knowing they will never accomplish half of what he has

Yeah, I wish I got paid millions of dollars to act like a dumbass on a shitty TV show.

One Flew Over the Cuckoos Nest
RainMan
Road To Perdition

cast away wasn't that sad because in the end he found hope.

You mean the bit where he loses Wilson?

"Wilson! Wilson! I'm sorry Wilson"

"My name is Voit dumbass"

So touching............

uh,.let see depressing...batman. he depresses me cuz he has no friends

You saw the Directors cut, the theatrical ending was very different, and much sadder. I can definately see how some people could consider the theatrical ending depressing.

The directors cut sounds better, there was no Ashton Kutcher! My dream come true! now, if we can just work Hilary Duff in there...

No one can touch Hilary Duff, her hotness is to overwhelming.

for me it wasn't depressing. in the end the actually met

Simon and About Schmit

oh man about schmit.. ohh god

it doesn't matter how pretty hilary duff is, she's an airhead.

isnt she like 12 or something? But I think the Oslen twins have her beat. There are two of them

But the Olsen twins are overly skinny, no curves. Hilary has a great body.

Also, I don't think she's twelve, she's about 16 I think.

hillary is hot.

I am intriqued as to why people thought RainMan and Blow were depressing? There have really only been 2 movies that have seriously bummed me out: Pay it Forward with Kevin Spacey
and The Champ with Jon Voight......I was crying a river by the time both of these movies ended. Not to say others have not touched me just that these two just tore me up.

I Am Sam made me cry...maybe that's just the chick in me......

That other teen actress is hot to. The one with red hair.

Mystic River was pretty depressing.

I know the pledge is a depressing movie with ol jack nicholson

Big bad love, was pretty damn depressing I mean i was sitting here watching this movie and asking myself why am i punishing myself to watch this?

Lost in oblivion is a depressing film to any hope up and comming film director.

Donnir Darko
Rainman

for some reason, the terminator 2 depresses me..dont know why

Maybe because he sacrifices himself?

i always seem to fall asleep in depressing movies.... sorry but its just a habit

Requiem for a dream
Philadelphia

irreversible depresses me very much so...my advice is not to see that move because it aint entertaining....if u wanna see the most realistic head bashing of all time or the longest rape scene of all time then go ahead and watch it...this film made me nauseus, u have been warned...backfire will tell u more about his film
