Saddest / Most Depressing Movies of All Time
« on: December 04, 2009, 04:15:57 PM »
Ha! I'm feeling kinda weepy today, so I was just thinking about the saddest films I have ever seen, and was wondering what the rest of you thought were the saddest or most depressing films you have ever seen. Here are a few of mine:

Schindler's List
Monster
Imitation of Life
Stella
All the Mornings of the World

Beaches
Steel Magnolias

I remember we were sent to watch Schindler's List when it was in theatres (I was in 9th grade) as part of our history class. I couldn't (and still can't) make it through that movie.


One of the penguin movies really depressed me when it came out because the ending was really sad, but I can't remember which one it was.

 That Mariah Carey movie "Glitter" keeps coming on tv, but it's sad and depressing in another way entirely.

Most movies make me cry, even when they are not supposed to :(  I cried watching the BSG miniseries for goodness sake :-[

Some of mine:
Life is Beautiful
Sophie's Choice
Dead Poets Society
The Pianist
In America
Love Story
E.T.
Million Dollar Baby
Beaches
Shindler's List

Anything to do with the Holocaust is hard for me.

Like Stacey, I'll cry at anything. I even did this as a kid, crying at King Kong and Snoopy Come Home!  :P

The Pianist
I always cry when Christopher Plummer sings Eidelweis in Sound of Music
My Life As A Dog
Mask
Boys Don't Cry

I could go on...

Have you seen Stella? It's also a Bette Midler movie, and I love it. It always makes me cry.

The Reader
E.T.
The Notebook
The Pianist
Life is Beautiful
King Kong

and lots more... I guess I will cry at anything, too!

That Mariah Carey movie "Glitter" keeps coming on tv, but it's sad and depressing in another way entirely.

LOL!
