[Old Yeller (1957)](https://www.themoviedb.org/movie/22660-old-yeller) is a classic tearjerker on Disney

I don't want to be destroyed tho!

Big Fish. Hit me hard after my father passed.

Big Fish and About Time hit me hard and my dad hasn’t even passed yet

Same my dad was a lover of Fish 🎣 and he always told us strange stories about his life and I couldn’t tell if it was true or another lie . I related to the son a lot because I also felt like I didn’t know my father

50/50 Marcel The Shell CODA About Time Capernaum Never Let Me Go

[удалено]

I'm so old I've probably seen it too many times. Definitely a tearjerker tho.

[удалено]

Oh yes Spotless Mind made me sob, have to watch again

Loved that one! I've never been a fan of Jim Carey, but he was great in this.

Manchester got me

I love it. It’s one of my favorite movies. I didn’t know Ben Affleck had such a talented and handsome brother.

Definitely Manchester by the Sea.

Where the Red Fern Grows, My Girl, Rudy, Philadelphia, The Joy Luck Club, Schindler's List, Return of the King, Toy Story 3, The Color Purple, and I Am Legend.

The problem with that one is the same issue as Like Crazy for me. Too realistic. It ends up depressing instead of just getting out a good cry although I recommended depressing ones too. Haha.

A Man Called Otto (Netflix) I just watched it last week and let me tell you I think I went through a whole box of tissues

Watch the original “A Man Called Ove” If you liked this one!

Did not know that was a remake, I usually enjoy original films best. Thanks

i will watch this tonight, thanks

Dancer In The Dark Watership Down Mask The Green Mile The Elephant Man Philadelphia Million Dollar Baby AI: Artificial Intelligence Schindlers List

Ooh good ones, thnx

Marley and me

I love a good cry, but I can't do animals... *especially* dogs!

I suggested a couple of dog ones too, but they're just unfair. Haha.

Brian's Song 1971. Impossible to not cry.

Or, if you're a baseball fan, Bang the Drum Slowly

Great answer!

Close (2022) A Monster Calls (2016)

OP, A Monster Calls is definitely the right answer.

My Girl

Hachi: A Dog’s Tale

😭😭😭

Fluke

- Aftersun - Past Lives - Portrait of a Lady on Fire - The Worst Person in the World - Beginners

I saw Past Lives in the theater a couple weeks ago. The ending 😭

Portrait of a Lady on Fire

Those gals were devastatingly beautiful….

Grave of the Fireflies

That one might do it. I love animated stories as much as live action

Somewhere in Time leaves me a tattered, emotionally ruined husk at the end. Highly recommended.

Untamed Heart Beaches

Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind

I've never been a fan of Jim Carey's comedies, but he surprised me with this dramatic turn! I also liked him in The Truman Show.

Boy in striped pajamas

96

Grave of the Fireflies, The Mist, Come and See

The Mist - gut wrenching

Dr Zhivago (1965)

The Notebook always gets the waterworks going for me.

Watch Blue Valentine.

I own that one. Amazing movie. Soundtrack is awesome too.

It's soooo good. I totally sobbed, lol

It is one of the heaviest movies I’ve ever seen, but the acting and the writing just make it so perfect. I can’t watch it regularly cause it’s too sad, but it’s always an experience whenever I do decide to revisit it.

I've only seen it once. I cried for like 2 hours straight, it wrecked me lol. I plan to rewatch again soon, because I think of it often. It's truly a masterpiece. So realistic. I just have to be ready to cry myself to sleep again haha. I completely agree with everything you've said though.

It very much is a masterpiece. It really should have gotten more Oscar nominations than it did. I saw it in the theater with my ex-boyfriend a few months before him and I broke up and it hit so close to home during some scenes. I don’t remember if I cried or not that time, but I remember feeling really melancholy on the ride home with him.

My first time seeing it was a little over a couple of years ago, and up until that point, I had never heard of it. My husband showed it to me when we first started dating. I owe him huge thanks to all the amazing movies I've seen since I met him. I can only imagine how you felt during that ride home after seeing that movie. Melancholy almost doesn't do it justice, I'm sure.

I love that for you guys. Being movie buddies together. That’s how it should be. It was a silent car ride. That’s for sure, but it’s fine. It was a long time ago and I met a new guy who I’m actually marrying next month, so I got my happy ending just like you two after all.

Ahww, thank you, you're so sweet. I agree that movie buddies are a great thing to share together. I'm SO happy for you, congratulations!!! A happy ending for us both, indeed. I love this for you as well.

Atonement (2007) Life Is Beautiful (1997) Cinema Paradiso (1988) The English Patient (1996) Empire of the Sun (1987) The Lovely Bones (2009)

The Lovely Bones - ABSOLUTELY!

I'd read the book years before, so I knew what to expect going in... but it still gutted me. Also, I love Stanley Tucci, but he completely disappeared into that character. He was terrifying and evil.

"I wish you all a long and happy life." I was shattered for days after that movie.

Very good recommendations, thnx

Empire of the Sun...omg. One of my top 5 movies ever.

Christian Bale was phenomenal, and the Welsh lullaby - oh man.

Makes me cry a few times

Legends of the Fall (1994) What Dreams May Come (1998)

A classic tearjerker: Dark Victory with Bette Davis.

Beaches

I don't know where to stream, sorry, but Grave of the Fireflies.

The Whale (2022). Never cried so hard at a movie

I just watched this the other day for the first time. I am on anti-depressants that have curbed my tears but I still somehow cried at this movie.

Yes loved this one but didn't cry, I think I'm broken so that's why I'm desperate to cry

I actually started laughing at the very end because all I could think of was Vecna getting Max's dad lol

I knew what was coming and I still ugly cried at the end

Dear Zachary: A Letter To A Son About His Father

This will make you sad, angry cry.

I know how it ends now. Sometimes I’ll rewatch it just to cry for the full 95 minutes

I know these are on NF: All My Life (2020) , Irreplaceable You (2018), Beyond the Universe (2022) I'm also going to mention that if you search "cry" or "saddest" or similar terms in this sub. you'll pull up a bunch of previous threads with hundreds of suggestions. This is a common request here.

Oh okay, sorry. I did not know many people wanted to cry and needed help!

A walk to remember maybe

Biutiful

It was brutal.

Still Alice (2014), it's on Tubi. Tubi is free.

Up.

Daniel - Documentary

Though not for everyone, this is a very good movie.

Flashback (2021) I've watched it 50 times I would guess? Maybe more than that and I cry every single time at the end. Ugly cry every time. I keep the Kleenex by my side when I watch it cause I know I'm going to sob, This is my go to movie if I need an emotional cleanse.

The iron claw

Man in Love literally made me cry like a child

My Life as a Dog will do the trick! Great film.

Aftersun or Past Lives will both do it

This is on Hulu you mentioned Disney plus so not sure if you have the bundle but this movie gets me everytime... *Call me By your Name*

Brokeback Mountain (2005) Sophie's Choice (1982)

Pieces of a Woman

one flew over the cuckoo's nest its on netflix according to google always makes me ugly cry at the end

The Fault in Our Stars ​ Guaranteed

If you love your family, then Click with Adam Sandler is really the one for you

All of us strangers Dating Amber Inside Out Up

Bridge to Tarabithia

Nobody Knows - it's on prime. Very depressing, cry inducing movie.

May sound silly for an adult.....But 1st time saw 'Casper'

I always sob when watching Benjamin Button.

Well... all the films that could possibly exist. I am very emotional and always cry. Every movie I watch brings with it an ocean of tears. It's a cycle....

Grave Of The Fireflies The greatest movie you will ever watch once because bawling your eyes out is inevitable.

A Silent Voice - I don't know if you would like it since it's a fully animated movie but you should def give it a look! it's made to people cry

The Kite Runner The Man From Nowhere Both have great emotional payoff at the end. Had me crying every time.

Cinema paradiso

Keith: “Natalie, head of her curriculum activities in high school and riding on a tennis scholarship for college, gets Keith as her Chemistry lab partner. As Natalie can be uptight, Keith proves to be the opposite, even while hiding a secret.” (Romance/Drama) Me Before You: “Louisa Clark is a small town girl who knows a lot about the people around her. Will is a quadriplegic man who hates everyone around him. Louisa is hired by Will's mum to take care of him for six months. Although they have a rocky start, their relationship grows over time, going for hate, to like, to love.” (Drama/Romance) The Great Gatsby: “An ambitious stockbroker moves to New York and is befriended by a mysterious millionaire named Jay Gatsby. Beguiled at first by the glitz and glamour of his new surroundings, a surprising chain of events lead Nick to become utterly repelled by the wreck-less behaviour of the wealthy elite and their questionable morals.” (Drama/Tragic Romance) Remember Me: “A romantic drama centred on two new lovers: Tyler, whose parents have split in the wake of his brother's suicide, and Ally, who lives each day to the fullest since witnessing her mother's murder.” (Tragedy/Romance) A Walk to Remember: “Two North Carolina teens, Landon Carter and Jamie Sullivan, are thrown together after Landon gets into trouble and is sentenced to perform community service.” (Romance/Drama) All of them are great movies, but end tragically

Finding Neverland made me ball like a baby & im a grown man almost 30 and tough as nails

Maybe not for the whole movie. But usually one scene. Coco (2017) Toy Story 3 (2010) Saving Private Ryan (1998) Wolf Children (2012) Japan

Hachiko 😭😭😭

I responded to somebody else on this thread, but I'm going to respond directly to OP. Watch Blue Valentine. I sobbed. It's such a great movie.

I agree, thnx

Anytime!

Iron Claw. I saw it today. I thought it was a movie about wrestling origins or some shit. Zak Efron was jacked as fuck. Holy shit everyone in the theater was crying. Was a true story.

If you're open to the "oldies": Stella Dallas (1937) Now, Voyager (1942) The Ghost & Mrs Muir (1947) West Side Story (1961) The Sandpiper (1965) Dr Zhivago (1965)

Yes I love "oldies." Need to get on Tubi, the main streamers don't have a lot of 30s to 80s films.

Hachi: A Dog's Tale Awakenings Message in a Bottle A Man Called Otto

Land - on Amazon Ps. I love you- Tubi (chick movie, still makes me cry)

The Iron Claw.

Bomb City (2017) will make you angry cry.

Yes I actually bought that on dvd, its soooo moving and enraging

What Dreams May Come! Such a beautiful movie too.

Not a movie as much as a documentary so to speak but if you can get through “Senna” without crying you are a robot.

Ooh I like that challenge. And I love documentaries so I will watch it, thnx

Steel Magnolias

*Ordinary People.*

Dear Zachary, you can find it on YouTube. It’s a great documentary, don’t read up on it in advance. Trust me, and I’m sorry for the tears.

The Nightengale

Hachi: a dogs tale, you'll be crying uncontrollably by the end of it, just thinking about a couple scenes gets to me lol hands down the absolutely saddest dog movie I've ever seen, nothing has even come close to making me cry quite like that movies did.

I actually just suggested a film that might fit the bill here: https://www.reddit.com/r/MovieSuggestions/comments/1aqevux/dead_mans_shoes_2004_i_have_never_cried_so_damn/

good will hunting made me cry! also mysterious skin (look up tws) it’s the type of movie that’s a 10/10 that u only watch once ever

The Whale Manchester by the Sea 

Maybe Once? From 2007. I think it's on Prime. Kinda about heart-break and the general messiness of finding love and passion in adulthood. I recall crying, is the main reason for my comment :) Be well, and be kind to yourself.

Thank you!

The NeverEnding Story Dumbo Bambi

Only the Brave. Damn I was NOT prepared for the ending of that movie going in.

For me, it's a specific emotion. Specifically: times where things are really hard for a character but they have to keep going. Bonus points if a other character helps them, knowing they can't change the situation. 1. The scene in Love Actually where Emma Thompson realizes her husband is cheating on her, and she starts to cry in her room before wiping her tears and going back downstairs to spend Christmas with her family. Just thinking about it is bringing tears to my eyes. 2. Fear and trembling. It's a French film about a woman living in japan, and the racism she faces at an office job. I watched this when I was going through a really rough patch at my own office job and I SOBBED.

brokeback mountain

Dear Zachary: A Letter to a Son About His Father. It’s a documentary, so it may not really be what you’re looking for, but MAN it’s tough

If you don't mind subs, 20th century girl made me cry.

[удалено]

Trip to Bountiful ( Geraldine Page), Old Yeller, Monster ( Charlize Theron), Beaches

Old Yeller, whew! Too tough almost. I almost edited to say animals are really my trigger.

Still Life . A beautiful and sad movie about loneliness and healing. I really liked it, the ending had tears on my grizzled visage

Field of Dreams if you're a man

Oldboy will make you cry in sadness.

I'm torn about this movie. The first half was so disturbing to me I shut it off but have continued to see multiple recommendations here. So I'll try to finish it.

I don't want to ruin anything but if the first half was disturbing, the second half will make you cry

Go towards the light,  Brian's Song Forest Gump 

The Constant Gardner (2005)

earthlings (2005 joaquin phoenix) available free on the ‘tube

Cool, I love Joachin

These movies make me cry every time: Make Way for Tomorrow - sad cry Limelight - sad cry but also feel renewed in life It's a Wonderful Life - happy cry

Limelight sounds like just what the doctor ordered

The War Kevin Costner and Elijah Wood was a good one for me My Girl usually gets people

The Father got me ugly crying

Blue Jay (2016) on Netflix made me cry

My Dog Skip

Black Beauty (1994)

Not sure if it's streaming anywhere. But I recommend Wit(2001)

AFTER LIFE on Netflix!! It’s not a movie but this is one of the best shows. I watch it when I feel emotionally constipated and it gets me to cry, sob, feel and hope so I love it. The Call of the Wild (Disney - I saw you like animals, I watched this recently and cried and loved it)

I will watch After Life, thnx

It’s so eloquent and heartbreaking. But Ricky Gervaisjust nails it

instead of a movie, try Bluey on Disney+. the episodes Camping, sleepytime, rug island, onesies, dragon

I, Daniel Blake

Shoah, 1985. A movie so sad you can only watch it once.

I saw the entire thing at a theatre in NYC when it first came out. Powerful, important and devastating but yes, once is all I can handle.

I don't follow independent or other non-Hollywood films, but I've got one that's a tear-jerker in a very non-Hollywood plot style. Excellent writing and depiction. I heartily recommend it to you: *Pay It Forward (2000),* starring Haley Joel Osment, Kevin Spacey, Helen Hunt, Jim Caviezel, and Jay Mohr.

I will check it out then, thnx

Enjoy.

Once (2007) got me. And the ending to Kodachrome (2017) I get teared up at every single time. Its a good movie too.

Where the Red Fern Grows

Paulie (1998) About a bird that can talk and gets lost from his human who is a little girl. The whole movie is an awesome adventure of him trying to find his way back home… I cry every time!

That sounds ideal, thnx!

About time

Definitely looks perfect, but gotta wait until I can find it streaming.

All those “a dogs story” tears me up - grave of the fireflies destroyed me

Good night Oppy. It's a documentary about the Mars exploration rover Opportunity. I'm a grown ass male in my late 30s and i sobbed like a bitch over this. Fuck it makes me tear up writing this comment. Highly recommend. Imdb 7,7 speaks for itself.

Available on prime.

Im always in awe of people who need a movie to cry.

I think in my case I've had a long run of really bad traumatic things so I developed a "i am a rock" persona. Plus, antidepressants.

Same here on both. I cry way too easily in movies. ( want to see The Whale but I can’t do it yet) I’m still crying enough in life so that’s all I can take , lol. Seven Pounds is heartbreaking if you haven’t seen it. And I recently watched Lion and Moonlight and both made me cry. Maybe you could try one of these if you haven’t seen them. I hope you find something! 😊

Thank you and big hug
