Movies with sad endings. (SPOILERS maybe)
 

I don't like them, and they've been intruding in my life recently. (Go away!)








Things like Pan's Labyrinth, which we already mentioned. Million Dollar Baby. Braveheart. Brokeback Mountain, for God's sake, was awful because the ending was so heartrendingly sad.

Waaah! I always feel cheated at such an ending.

Grave of the Fireflies is the saddest movie ever made.

Ouch. Concur.

My stepdaughter was so busy being pissed off and sad at the "sad" ending to "The Iron Giant" that she completely missed the part where it turned out it wasn't a sad ending after all. We had to back up the DVD to prove it to her... and then we laughed at her.

Charlotte's Web *sniff* Julia Roberts dies!

The Hitcher - hated it - ticked me off.

City of Angels(?) the one with Nicholas Cage & Meg Ryan - stupid!

Oh yes on that last one. It was a very interesting, very good film for the first 3/4ths.

Well Braveheart had the disadvantage of having to be historically accurate. From Wikipedia

I heard Disney was working on a version where Wallace, realizing that Edward is misunderstood, manages to find the stuffed rabbit that Edward had lost as a child. A grateful Edward frees Scotland, knights Wallace, and invites him for tea. The last scene is of the two of them laughing together as the screen fades to black to the strains of "Scotland the Brave" sung by Elton John.:rolleyes:

Would the ending of Hedwig and the Angry Inch be a sad one or a happy one? I'm not entirely sure.

happy, as such things go.

The Matrix. Sad cause it made me hate the Wochowski brothers.

Happy? Why?
SPOILERS:
She ruined the life of the boy (man?) she loved, and, after she had a nervous breakdown, he sang her a pretty song and left, assumedly forever.
Her husband started crossdressing again, taking over as diva of the band.
She (well, with the wig off, I guess 'he' now) left, naked and penniless, alone, to the street.
Sounds pretty rough to me.

Hopeful and kind of a, like, good sort of melancholy ending, maybe... but not happy.

optimistic, I would call it, but with the hero/ine alive; a positive note in contrast to most of the ones I'm thinking of. Alive counts for a lot.

Yes, very well made and a heart-breaker. I made of my friends watch it and she never forgave me for it. I just told her it was really good..........

Beaches

The Bridge to Taribithia. Saw that on a plane recently and bawled my eyes out.

Message in a Bottle
The Green Mile
Saving Private Ryan
Helen the Baby Fox
Ghost
Lady Sings the Blues

This is the saddest movie of all time i remember seeing this when i was a very young kid and the whole cinema was bawling their eyes out very stange experience http://www.movierevie.ws/movies/1040...e-to-Give.html
Based on the book "The day they gave the babies away"

I like em'.

I'm afraid I had a bad reaction to March of the Penguins.

Not that the ending was that sad, particularly, just that the whole thing--the whole miserable existence, affected me. The miserable winter, the months without food, the endless trekking . . . and most especially the dead baby penguins. :(

Worthwhile watching once, but won't be on my play list.
