Unhappy A tragedy!

No... they couldn't have... it's not right... Oh, the worst thing in the world has happened! It's the most horrible thing ever! Oh, the humanity!

Spoiler Below
They... THEY... killed James Bond's wife! BWAAAAAAAHHHHH!!! They had just gotten married! THEY WERE ON THE WAY TO THEIR HONEYMOON! They were discussing how many children they'd have... And then Blofeld drove by and SHOT HER!


They had all the time in the world...


----------


So, yeah. Use this thread to discuss the saddest movie scene you've ever seen. That part in On Her Majesty's Secret Service always gets my eyes welling...

DON'T FORGET THE SPOILER TAGS.

In the Mood for Love
Spoiler Below
Maggie Cheung is late getting to Tony Leung and misses the opportunity to travel to Singapore with him.


Idlewild
Spoiler Below
Angel Davenport dies, Percival almost commits suicide over it after embalming her body.


But the saddest moment I've ever seen in a movie easily goes to Boyz in the Hood
Spoiler Below
Ricky dies... then his mom recieves his SAT scores. He needed a 700 to get into the university he wanted to go to on a football scholarship, and he got a 710. He was so nervous during the test, too. Then... he just suddenly got shot over some absolute bull****!


There's a few rather depressing moments in Lady Snowblood, but it's more of that dry, empty feeling, not a bawl your eyes out cryfest. But the ease in empathizing with the main character is one of the things that makes Snowblood such a great film.

Moulin Rouge
Spoiler Below

Christian (Ewan McGregor) and Satine (Nicole Kidman) finally declare their love for each other, only to have Satine collapse and die in Christian's arms.



A.I.
Spoiler Below

I didn't realize it until repeat viewings, but the ending where David (Haley Joel Osment) receives only one day with his "mother" before she dies is heartbreakingly sad (especially consider all the trouble he went through to get that moment).

The Blair Witch Project

Spoiler Below
The movie was so slow, but when it finally got to the exciting ending, it just stopped. There was no ending.


That wasn't sad, but it made me want to cry, does that count?

The Lion in Winter

Spoiler Below
Most of the movie, actually, but in particular the scene immediately after Henry disowns his sons and wanders the halls of the castle alone. Peter O'Toole conveys heartbreak marvelously well.

V For Vendetta

Noone gets why I adore this motivational film....

EDIT: This post needs no spoiler tags (and it's not within the scope of the topic either) - SK
