I used to think Grave of the Fireflies and Make Way for Tomorrow couldn't be topped.

Then I saw one of Ozu's films, "Tokyo Story" and now I'm in this perpetual state of melancholy where I don't have motivation to do anything because I understand the futility of it all. We work hard, get old, and eventually die. At the end of the day, we're all similar to mob characters in a video game. We don't actually have autonomy and life is controlled by this thing called fate.

I love watching sad movies. I feel like I need to break myself emotionally down and see things at surface level in order to humble myself more. What's the saddest movie you've seen? I need to cry again.

I dont really watch sad movies, and the sad ones I watch just kinda seem over the top.

Sports movies get me though. They get me good, and they dont even have to be stereotypically sad.

The last 20 minutes of the Green Mile.

Holy hell, I saw it with my mother and father in law, and all three of us were absolutely ugly crying the whole way through that last bit. How MCD didn't get an Oscar for that performance I'll never know.

You guys sure know your sad movies.

Also does anyone enjoy feeling depressed? I'm feel like I'm getting acclimated to that heavy feeling lingering around my chest.

While there are certainly more movies that I would say have a more tragic storyline, the only movie I can recall that brought me to tears was Up. That scene at the beginning just comes out of nowhere and hits you before you even have a chance to prepare for it.

Flight 93 was pretty sad. Everyone knows what happens in the end but it still hit me pretty hard. I'd probably never watch it again just because it was just really weighty and I don't know if i'll ever be in the mood for it again.

There was a made for tv version of that story that showed how the passengers could make phone calls on a plane in 2001.

I agree with The Green Mile. The ending and entire sequence was just heartbreaking. I only watched it once but that was enough, it just makes me feel so incredibly sad.

I also, surprisingly, thought Jojo Rabbit was very sad. There were at least two scenes that made me tear up.

I forgot all about that movie. Saw it on television many years ago. I remember the ending leaving it open to interpretation whether or not the kid dies after taking that jump in his tricycle. At least that's how I remember it.
