The Outlaw Josey Wales

Really? I thought the only thing sad about that movie was the fact that Clint cast that one horrible actress as the love interest. She couldn't act her way out of a paper sack. Didn't he marry her and give her some semblance of a career before she stabbed him in the back and took half his shit?

 

[PimpJuice]

thanks asshole, i haven't seen the movie. learn to spoiler tag.

saddest movie ive seen? good question.....i am not a bitch so I don't watch sad movies.

As opposed to bitching about a sad movie....

 

[Mr. Pedantic]

The first part of Up was pretty sad too. IMO the rest of the movie was just filler to justify charging people to watch it.

The scene where redlegs and his guards burn down Josey's home and murder Joseys family is somewhat sad. Also, the double cross where they shoot all the reb pow's is a bit sad.... That said, I don't consider it one of the saddest films I'd seen. It's one of my favorites, though, I really don't like Sandra Locke, she did OK for that part, as the character was supposed to be kinda retarded IMO.



Saddest movie for me ... tough one ...
Perhaps one of these three...
Au Revoir Les Enfants
Ikiru
Cries and Whispers

 

[TridenT]

The English Patient.
Everyone dies!!!! Nearly everyone.

Atonement.
Worst twist ending ever. You are thinking how nice it is that they get to be together and then they pull the rug out from under you! I was like "Damn!!! How can you do that!!!!"

LOL, I watched that in theaters with two friends. One guy, one gal. The girl and pretty much everyone else in the theater started crying at the end. Me and my guy friend looked at each other like, "why is everyone crying...?" I remember thinking, "What? What a crock of shit! You can't just make shit up like that."

 

[gimmewhitecastles]

Depatures.

That one tore me up real nice in some spots.

 

[TheNinja]

I tried to hide it when replying Sorry. It's still an incredible film you'll still love it.

thanks asshole, i haven't seen the movie. learn to spoiler tag.


saddest movie ive seen? good question.....i am not a bitch so I don't watch sad movies. lost in translation was probably the closest thing to a sad ending I can honestly remember.

Cowboy Bebop had a sad ending, only because it was only 24 episodes long =[

LOL - The Notebook movie is like 7 years old. If you haven't seen it by now you probably never will.

 

[pwilson316]

Taking Chance.

It doesn't seem that many people saw this movie. I caught it by accident once traveling for work and no one around me knew anything about it.

[jiggyest]

Dancer in the Dark

 

[SphinxnihpS]

Dancer in the Dark

Indeed.

 

[Ichinisan]

I don't think Crash is all that sad, but it has one of the most powerful scenes ever.

Bullets were blanks and the shooter had no idea.

EDIT:

nm on the edit.

For movie it would be Seven Pounds hands down.

Just watched this last night .... cripes, soooo sad.

Recommending to co-workers who might need a good cry.

 

[Possessed Freak]

Joy Luck Club

 

[spacejamz]

From the previews, I thought Marley and Me was gonna be a comedy since they showed ALL of the funny parts of the movie...

 

[SlowSpyder]

Dear Zachary: A Letter to a Son About his Father
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1152758/

This one made me cry like a baby. I only saw it once months ago, and even now thinking about this movie puts a golf ball sized lump in my throat.

 

[LookBehindYou]

Already been said, but Marley and Me and My Dog Skip. It's the damn dog movies that get me. I've never cried when people i know/family have died. But i have cried when my dog died. Same with movies I guess, don't care about people, but damnit the dogs get my heart....

 

[djnsmith7]

The first movie that came to mind was Untamed Heart...I don't remember much about the movie, just that it had a sad story.

Schindler's List

Seven Pounds

 

[Rhoxed]

The Green Mile

 

[Sixguns]

Watchmen-- Mostly since I wasted three hours of my live watching that crap.

lol, I felt the same way about Superman Returns ... sooooooooo long and pointless. Matrix Revolutions was a pile of shit too.

$7-$9 movie ticket + $10 in concessions + 2-3 hours of life wasted = ffuuuuuu

 

[KeithTalent]

if you don't think a movie about a little girl starving to death isn't sad, you have no soul.

Ugh, I freaking hated that movie. I was cheering for the disease by the end of it; damn annoying cartoon kid.

The ending of The Notebook was actually pretty sad, though I was not a huge fan of the movie. Dancer in the Dark is a good choice, but I may have to go with Deliver Us From Evil, which is a documentary, but still, cripplingly sad in parts.
