15 Best Movies Where the Main Character Dies in the End According to the Cinemaholic

WARNING: SPOILERS ALERT
"As audiences, we're often led to believe that the main character/protagonist will survive in the end, no matter how difficult the circumstances may be. This belief is imprinted in our psyche, and so we're often shocked or devastated to witness the death of the main character. Many filmmakers have cleverly exploited this belief of ours to create compelling, realistic stories in which there are no happy/predictable endings. Movies, where the main characters die, are often more exciting, thrilling and realistic than the ones where all of them manage to survive even in the most absurdly impossible situations. So with all that said now, let's take a look at the list of movies where the main character dies." - thecinemaholic.com
