Sad movies poll.

"The Bridges of Madison County" always brings a tear to my eye. Although Meryl Streep is doing the right thing for her family, it is still sad that she can't be with Clint Eastwood. The ending is particularly moving when the truth finally comes out.

Well, I guess I won’t be linking to the Artax scene from The Neverending Story in this thread, even if he does come back to life at the end of the film.

I have actually watched the first part of a show that had a sad ending before, stopped it before the sad part, and daydreamed up an alternative ending that was happy. I have actually done things like that several times.

I have steered clear of sad films for years, but I have watched "Charlotte's Web" as a kid, and it definitely made me cry. About a decade and a half ago, my oldest niece (my stepsister's child) made us all watch the remake and it made me cry too.

Sometimes, out of curiosity, I would read the descriptions of certain films on Wikipedia and TV Tropes, and that alone would make me cry. One example is "Marley and Me". I did not have to see this movie to make me cry, just reading the description (yes, I am basically risking spoilers here) made me cry within seconds.
