Sad movies: tear-jerkers required

[Oakie]

Got a TXT from my daughter last night. She's been seing a manly-man (he's a Personal Trainer - 'action man, sleep under the stars, go for a 20km stroll across the Remarkables for pleasure' type of guy). Anyway they were watching the movie 'Pay it Forward' last night and he finished up crying big man-tears ('crying like a big sooky la la' to use my daughter's words). Seems he can't handle sad movies.
So of course my daughter being the kind and empathetic girl she is is now racking her brains trying to come up with more and sadder movies for him to watch.
We came up with 'The Pursuit of Happines', The Notebook' and 'Ghost' but there must be a hundred other movies out there that could reduce a manly-man to a a quivering-lipped jelly fish ... so get naming them please ...

[sunhuntin]

im not much of a cryer, but million dollar baby nearly got me... cant think of any others that get me going. watership down gets most, but not me. [im too busy pecking at where they deviated from the book]

[skelstar]

Not a movie but the second episode of the mini-series 'From The Earth to the Moon' is getting close.

[marioc]

Seven,right at the end when Brad Pitt realises its his wifes head in the box

[Mystery]

Try these:

City of Angels
The Green Mile
Titanic

All have scenes that could make a grown man cry:crybaby:

[Stickchick]

What about E.T? I know a fair few people found that to be a tear jerker

[skelstar]

City of Angels
A grown man would have to get to the end of that movie first. Its aweful :mellow:

[Str8 Jacket]

A grown man would have to get to the end of that movie first. Its aweful :mellow:

Aweful as in it captured all your attention?
Or
Awful as in horrible/disgusting/boring etc etc?

:p

[jrandom]

Before Sunrise (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0112471/).

Well, not really a tearjerker, as such, but I bet he'd enjoy it.

[jrandom]

A grown man would have to get to the end of that movie first.

I bet. Never seen it, don't want to, but while we're on that general style of title, City of God (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0317248/) is a fuckin' awesome film.

[FlangMasterJ]

Empire of the Sun get's me a little choked up.

Also in Commando when Matrix's daughter is kidnapped.

[SpeedyGirl]

Armageddon! Sad to admit it got me... and i dont cry, ever!:baby:

[Mikkel]

If you want a movie that is likely to fuck around with some stuff inside you I'd recommend "Requiem for a Dream". It's an interesting one - not a tear jerker - bound to make you think about where you are and what to be happy about.

[skelstar]

Awful as in horrible/disgusting/boring etc etc?
I think you know me well enough to work that out Hels.

Nick Cage in The Rock is 'ok' :niceone: Nick Cage in a drippy romantic role is 'not ok' :no:

[jrandom]

If you want a movie that is likely to fuck around with some stuff inside you I'd recommend "Requiem for a Dream".

Mmm, yes indeed. I was going to recommend it myself, but the original request was for 'tearjerkers', after all, and by the end of RFaD we don't really feel much for the protagonists beyond mild disgust.

So... wanna buy some smack?

[Str8 Jacket]

I think you know me well enough to work that out Hels.



I *thought* I knew you Sean.... :(

[Mikkel]

Mmm, yes indeed. I was going to recommend it myself, but the original request was for 'tearjerkers', after all, and by the end of RFaD we don't really feel much for the protagonists beyond mild disgust.

Well, it's still one of the saddest movies I've seen. And I think it says a lot about human nature and self-deception... Don't know if feeling disgust for the protagonists is appropriate.


So... wanna buy some smack?

You got some? Sure...

[FlangMasterJ]

"Requiem for a Dream"

Cucumber sandwhiches anyone?

[Bikernereid]

One flew over the cuckoos nest
On Golden Pond
Fried Green Tomotoes
Tim

[jrandom]

One flew over the cuckoos nest

Good call.

:yes:

[Hitcher]

Any movie that ends with III invariably makes me cry.

Rambo
Mission Impossible
Die Hard
Star Wars (a steaming pile of Sith)
Neverending Story...

[jrandom]

Don't know if feeling disgust for the protagonists is appropriate.

I do recall thinking "Gosh, one day I want to have parties where we stand around in expensive suits snorting coke and watching hot naked chicks doing each other anally with a double-ended dildo on the coffee table!"

:niceone:

Despite what you and your daughter think - this man is not a manly-man as you quoted.

He cries in movies and therefore is either gay or has ovaries.

Id get him to watch Extreme Home makeover. Video him breaking down in tears and post it here on KB for us to have a good laugh at.

[Oakie]

Armageddon! Sad to admit it got me... and i dont cry, ever!:baby:

My daughter suggested that one. Wasn't sure myself but perhaps there is something to it.

[hellnback]

"I am Sam"

Handy guy with a daughter, state tries to take her away from him...

[Bikernereid]

The sign of a real man is that he is in touch with his emotions and is not afraid to show them. You sound like a bit of a closet......

Nah, it's all good fun.

Nonsense. Real Men don't have feelings.

:niceone:

Well, they don't call it the GOOD LIFE for no reason :yes: ;)


The sign of a real man is that he is in touch with his emotions and is not afraid to show them. You sound like a bit of a closet......

I feel like a beer... Tui anyone?

Anyway, if he appreciates good music show him the music video for Scissor Sisters cover of Comfortably Numb... that made me want to cry.

[FlangMasterJ]

The Hand that Rocks the Cradle. When the slow black guy get's accused of fiddling with their daughter.

[Krayy]

"My Life" with Michael Keaton as a man dying from cancer. Way teary.

[Mikkel]

Nah, it's all good fun. If you knew him you'd appreciate the irony.

You think that now... Just wait until the wedding when he shows up wearing a pink tie, with a best man who can not straighten his wrists and starts sobbing in the church.
And late that evening they'll be doing ABBA and Bee-Gees kareokee and you never get any grandchildren...

There are signs! Ignore them at your peril.

Would you ignore a wobbly front wheel when cruising at 230 km/h over Arthurs Pass... no, I didn't think so.

;)

[Mikkel]

Actually - what you need to do is show him this:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bmXri8ZCKjc

If he starts crying from that you're in trouble...

;)

[Lissa]

The Notebook. Ryan is so hot! :devil2:

The Iron Giant. Honestly I have watched this about 100 times, and right at the end (when you think hes dead) I have tears in my eyes.... I love that movie, my kids hate it.

[Bikernereid]

Made me want to cry and stab people!!!


Well, they don't call it the GOOD LIFE for no reason :yes: ;)



I feel like a beer... Tui anyone?

Anyway, if he appreciates good music show him the music video for Scissor Sisters cover of Comfortably Numb... that made me want to cry.

[jrandom]

Nonsense. Real Men don't have feelings.

Incorrect. Real Men have two very distinct emotional states; anger and stoic detachment.


show him the music video for Scissor Sisters cover of Comfortably Numb...

Yes, indeed. 'In today's list of Blasphemous Covers That Should Have Died In The Womb...'

[kevfromcoro]

La Bamba ..allways gets me..when they all die in the plane

[Mikkel]

Incorrect. Real Men have two very distinct emotional states; anger and stoic detachment.

No no, there's only one true emotional state for a real man - to be irate!

[Oakie]

You think that now... Just wait until the wedding when he shows up wearing a pink tie, ....
And late that evening they'll be doing ABBA and Bee-Gees kareokee

;)

Oddly enough, that would not surprise me in the slightest!

[FlangMasterJ]

The Notebook. Ryan is so hot! :devil2:

The Iron Giant. Honestly I have watched this about 100 times, and right at the end (when you think hes dead) I have tears in my eyes.... I love that movie, my kids hate it.

Yep good call.

[Pwalo]

No no, there's only one true emotional state for a real man - to be irate!

No, no it's slight exasperation. You know that feeling you get when you try and explain things to your children for the nth time.

Sad movies. Spartacus - manly, but a bit sad at the end.

[Oakie]

OK, Be nice now. My sweet little daughter is coming to check out this thread shortly and she will have her paper and pencil to note down titles.
Keep 'em coming though. This is quite entertaining.

[avgas]

8 mile....HAHA

[RantyDave]

Pan's Labyrinth.

I thought it was going to be some brain-dead fantasy special effects spendfest that I could sit in front of and be amused while I drank beer. Instead I got people behaving like bastards to each other in the Spanish civil war and a little girl in denial.

Dunno about tear jerker, but it's really f*cking horrible.

Dave

[enigma51]

Someone might have said it already your daughter is dating a FAG

[NOMIS]

A walk to remember man, dont no any one who tried to be hard about that one.

[Freebird]

"Gone in Sixty Seconds"

When "Eleanor" the GT500 Mustang gets trashed made me cry like a big jessie :shit:

[Nagash]

Saw III got quite emotional when the psycho-killer women shot the women with a shotgun necklace and then got sliced up by the girls husband with a circular saw.

And I know it been mentioned by Requiem for a Dream is real deep thought type movie, freaky stuff. sat around for like half an hour afterwards blankly.

Donnie Darko's a good one too.


And to Freebird: How about Casino Royale where he trashed an Aston Martin just to avoid running over some bimbo..

[Beemer]

im not much of a cryer, but million dollar baby nearly got me...

Yeah, I've heard that movie is pretty bad - the reviews were harsh!

[Mikkel]

No, no it's slight exasperation. You know that feeling you get when you try and explain things to your children for the nth time.

If you're a real man you'll be very irate after having to tell your kid AGAIN for the first time!

...and then there'd be hell to pay (http://www.thebestpageintheuniverse.net/c.cgi?u=beat) - after all, you wouldn't want your grandchildren to grow up to be gay pansies...

;)

[HenryDorsetCase]

Yeah, I've heard that movie is pretty bad - the reviews were harsh!

UH?

Hilary Swank best actress

Clint Eastwood who is fantastic in anything

Morgan Freeman also great in even drivel.

Million Dollar Baby is an exceptionally good film. It isnt Raging Bull, but its bloody good nonetheless

Anyway, if he appreciates good music show him the music video for Scissor Sisters cover of Comfortably Numb... that made me want to cry.

the only thing that made me want to cry was that some horrid bunch of fruits covered a half decent song.

[HenryDorsetCase]

Death in Brunswick

theres a terribly sad scene in a graveyard late at night.

[James Deuce]

A grown man would have to get to the end of that movie first. Its aweful :mellow:
No it isn't. Brilliant piece of metaphorical, existential commentary. I loved it.

[dickytoo]

Try "Cookie's Fortune" and "The Family Stone".

[Tank]

The sign of a real man is that he is in touch with his emotions and is not afraid to show them.

yeah - that's what all the new age, touchy feely, metro-sexual guys say. Glad to say I'm not one of em. But hey if that's what works for you and the boys down the spa - then more strength to ya. :eek:

I sound like a closet? Well - Im not, but thanks for enquiring.

[crashe]

Yep I watched it last night........ I thought when he did the 'deed' was really sad.....

Hilary Swank was blardy brilliant in 'Boys don't cry'...... she surely deserved her award in that film.

'Notebook' is sad....... and moving.
'One flew over the cukoo's nest' is another brilliant movie...... damn it was so sad near the end.
MASK damn great movie, it is so sad when Rocky died..... and how everyone reacted.... Cher was so fantastic in it. When the dude who never spoke, actually spoke. This movie was based on a true story. Loved the cruiser bikes in it too.

There are many movies no matter how many times you watch it and you know it is gonna be sad....... that it still gets you.


There is nought wrong with a fella showing his feeling and emotions.... even if it is over a movie...... maybe they see something from their past... or that they are sensitive inside.
Many guys walk out of movies wiping that bit of dust that got in their eye after watching a movie.

American History X

"BITE THE CURB"

Wasn't crying, but definitly cringing during that scene....

[Str8 Jacket]

"BITE THE CURB"

Wasn't crying, but definitly cringing during that scene....

Know whatya mean, but Ive watched it a few times now and it get's me everytime. Though I still "enjoy" it....

[FlangMasterJ]

Yep the 'bite the curb' scene was pretting full on. My father watched it with me and here's a man who used to skin and gut deer for a living and he had to look away.

He can gut a deer but the smell of fresh cat shit makes him gag. :blink:

[BIHB@0610]

Legends of the Fall .... unbearably sad.
The Notebook - just have to register agreement re that one - awesome.
Beaches - but that might be just a bit too obviously a chick flick ....

Drum roll ....my all-time favourite saddest movie ...
Mask - bikes in it too - chur chur!

[Beemer]

UH?

Dominion Post - "possibly the most overrated movie I know of. The unbelievable script, leaden and portentous directing, and unforgivably saccharine denouement somehow got this funeral march of a film into the Oscars ahead of Martin Scorsese's The Aviator, and pretty much forced "the academy" to give Scorsese his overdue statue for The Departed in 2007, ahead of Eastwood's superior Letters from Iwo Jima. Funny old world."

I'd agree that Morgan Freeman is a great actor, but Hilary Swank doesn't cut it with me, and Clint Eastwood may have been good at some stage in his career, but following movies like Play Misty for Me, he lost the plot a little.

Another vote for The Notebook though, great movie and my husband found it quite sad too.

[Maha]

Nonsense. Real Men don't have feelings.

Not so, i have proof.
Havent read any movie titles that warrent being a 'tear jerker' ....
Real life can be most effective.
Say goodbye to my daughter the other day at Auckland Airport, gave her a hug and she started crying and wouldnt let go...that got me going, we were both standing there crying and the flight attendant said ''its ok dad, stay here as long as you want''....thank god for sun glasses is all i can say.

[Mutley]

So of course my daughter being the kind and empathetic girl she is is now racking her brains trying to come up with more and sadder movies for him to watch.
... so get naming them please ...

If they like watching very old movies, Greyfriars Bobby is a real tear jerker.:crybaby:

[crashe]

If they like watching very old movies, Greyfriars Bobby is a real tear jerker.:crybaby:

Yep have to agree with you on that one........ seeing Bobby lying on his masters grave...

[HungusMaximist]

Don't dig the whole sad movie thing.

Although, I do those sexy films/horror films where you can get a good make session out of your g/f.

[Str8 Jacket]

[007XX]

"Gone in Sixty Seconds"

When "Eleanor" the GT500 Mustang gets trashed made me cry like a big jessie :shit:

Oh hell yeah...I bawled my eyes out on that...and winced...and cursed!!!

Another good one relatively unknown is "I am Sam" with Sean Penn and Michelle Pfeiffer.
I never was a fan of his until I saw this movie: he is just unbelievably credible in this one, and definitely got me choked up.

The "Green Mile" is another one that gets to me, and has an awesome reunion of talent.

[Tank]

....

Drum roll ....my all-time favourite saddest movie ...
Mask - bikes in it too - chur chur!

Wouldn't that be Cher, Cher?

[jrandom]

Hilary Swank... in 'Boys don't cry'

:love:<tencharacters>

[Pussy]

Watched "Borat" at the weekend, I was laughing so much I nearly cried :yes:

[Pussy]

watership down gets most, but not me. [im too busy pecking at where they deviated from the book]

Watership Down... read the book, saw the movie, ate the pie.....

[Swoop]

The NZ Post adverts' at the moment do pretty well. Just the right music to add to the feeling.

[Oakie]

If they like watching very old movies, Greyfriars Bobby is a real tear jerker.:crybaby:

Jeez. I remember watching that when I must have been about 10.

[Hitcher]

UH?

Perhaps I should raffle a hand-written letter from the eponymous Ms Swank begging forgiveness for the piece of fruit she "inadvertently" brought into New Zealand...

[MotoGirl]

Couple of good tear jerkers I know are White Oleander and I am Sam.

[Usarka]

Light up a fat one and watch Tenacious D and the Pick of Destiny.....

If you don't have tears rolling down your face then you must be head first in the freezer with your tongue stuck to the ice cream container.

[Mort]

...you know that bit at the end of Saving Private Ryan where the old guy is stood by the grave and asks his Family if he is a good man.... it kills me every time....

The end of Lord of the Rings (3) Where Aragorn is crowned and kneels before the Hobbits .... and again when Frodo leaves on the ship........ Only time I ever cried in a cinema - still gets me...

[enigma51]

There is some real fags on this site crying cause a fucking hobbit (which is fictional) cant toughen the fuck up!

[Trudes]

Empire of the Sun get's me a little choked up.
.
Yes

Try these:

City of Angels
The Green Mile
Titanic

All have scenes that could make a grown man cry:crybaby:
Yes

"I am Sam"

Handy guy with a daughter, state tries to take her away from him...
And yes....
Gladiator makes me cry too, and Braveheart, it's sad when the hero dies.

[Timber020]

"Old Yella" Disney classic, a boy meets dog, boy loves dog, something tragic is going to happen story.

Personal trainer and mans man is oxymoron. At least my watching old yella he might get a clue on what being a real man is.

[Trudes]

Sad doggy movies.... "My Dog Skip".

[homer]

Yes a very cool and interesting movie
not a tear jerker .....dont know what wrong with people theres days ......

A few tins of toughen up in order i think
but yeah the ending was really twisted

[nallac]

make him sit down and watch the whole TITANIC movie, its enough drivel to make any man cry.
3 hours of crap to sit thru to get to the boat sinking.........

I know i'd cry/scream/shout if the missus tried to make me watch it....

[mstriumph]

........... she is is now racking her brains trying to come up with more and sadder movies for him to watch.
We came up with 'The Pursuit of Happines', The Notebook' and 'Ghost' but there must be a hundred other movies out there that could reduce a manly-man to a a quivering-lipped jelly fish ... so get naming them please ...

why would she WANT to reduce him to a ..... what you just said? seems unkind

It aint all bad. Kate Winslet is really good about getting her tits out for the boys. And she is f**n attractive, a bit curvy, not some leather covered skeleton with plastic bumps. ecccch.

I'm struggling to think of a Kate Winslet movie where she doesn't get them out, TBH: not even in Heavenly Creatures....

[HenryDorsetCase]

Perhaps I should raffle a hand-written letter from the eponymous Ms Swank begging forgiveness for the piece of fruit she "inadvertently" brought into New Zealand...


if by "fruit" you mean sex, and if by "New Zealand" you mean my bedroom and if by "Ms Swank" you mean Hilary Swank, and if by "hand written" you mean something a bit naughty, then I'll give you a tenner for it.

but not otherwise. ;)

[Oakie]

why would she WANT to reduce him to a ..... what you just said? seems unkind

Nah, that's just my girl. She's always looking for ways to make the boys cry, but she's a sweetie really and the boys all love her. Believe me!

[MVnut]

What about old movies.......Dr Zhivago

[FJRider]

American Graffiti got me. All those beautiful cars getting TRASHED. Any real man would have to cry.

"Black Hawk Down" and "We were soliders" have nice emotional endings to them

F*ck that. And f*ck sitting through it for a chic.

WTF men don't cry, you people are a bunch of pussys.

the only place ive ever seen hardened bikers crying is at a bikers funeral. and i'm there doing the same.

a movie is not real though, it can be based on truth but in the end hollywood blows it out of proportion.

real life okay can shed a tear, but ffs it's a frikking movie.

listen too chopper....HTFU

Old Yella. Its about a dog

[Slicksta]

schindler's list (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0108052/) was one movie that made me have tears in my eyes... To End All Wars (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0243609/) was another if you have not seen it watch it its so brutal! I guess i find these movies so moving because they are based on true story's.To think human nature is capable of such just really gets to me.

Ghostrider...no not the hollywood bs

Hehe, I must admit I got a big shiver down my back during the Charge of the Rohan! But yeah, there are some tear-jerking action going on as well - better HTFU! ;)


Gladiator makes me cry too, and Braveheart, it's sad when the hero dies.

FREEDOM!
Feel free to cry now :p
But yes, strong scenes in either film.

Nah, that's just my girl. She's always looking for ways to make the boys cry, but she's a sweetie really and the boys all love her. Believe me!

I believe you - but I am very tempted to make some wildly inappropriate comment... But I can't bring myself to it - you being the father and all. ;)

Mark, wake the fuck up... If you're a fan you should know he's from Sweden. :tsktsk:
I know Europe is a bit confusing with all those countries and all - but Switzerland and Sweden are not even close... Shared characteristics:

1. They both begin with Sw
2. They both got money
3. They both got motorists who can actually drive/ride
4. They both got mountain
5. Ah fuck it, I can't be assed - I'll get you a map later...

[enigma51]

The only movie that bought me close to tears was the Chick dig scars movies during the crash section and some off those crashes make any man go oooooooo

It's like Labyrinth with less dancing and more rape scenes. Which ironically also makes it a better movie. But a sad one.

Not a tear jerker but definitely one of the crappiest movies ever... starts out funny as feck but then just goes downhill from there real fast...
Supposedly a 'Black comedy' but I wouldn't even class it as that.
Never really liked his films but that RV was funny, this definitely aint.
