Film endings that made you cry?

[voltron]

The ending of A Serbian Film didn't make me cry per se but it bummed me out so much that I vowed to never watch it again. "Start with the little one". Of course I've rewatchtced it many times since and I have to stop namedropping that one. The ending to The Girl Next Door (Jack Ketchum) was a real heartbreaker for me.

The ending of Furious 7:  

I should just add this: after you've watched the ending a few times, you realize that while the ending is very sad - the death of Paul Walker and the gut wrenching, emotional song See You Again - it is also very life-affirming. But that final shot of the Supra riding away on an empty road into a brilliant sunset over the mountains and then the words FOR PAUL appearing on the screen: wow. That also indicates that Brian is heading off to a wonderful future with Mia and his kids: a future that wasn't to be for Paul.

RIP Paul Walker: ride safe, ride free, brother.  



And yes: I blubbed like a baby watching it.

I'm a little embarrassed about this one but I watched the documentary Turtle Power - about the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle phenomenon - last week and the ending had me tearing up badly. The song that plays at the end and the shots of Kevin Eastman and Peter Laird, reunited after many years, sitting together as friends, chatting, laughing, signing autographs made me blub.

When I was very sick a month ago, I watched Spielberg's LINCOLN and blubbered like a baby at the end!

As a fellow historian, I still have to see that.
