Looper's Family Movies Where Way Too Many Characters Die
"Death, whether it comes suddenly or gradually, is a natural part of life, & that's something all children grow to eventually understand. To help facilitate this understanding of what death is & how it works, we have stories to fall back on. Family-friendly stories, including many of our favorite movies as children, are full of lessons for dealing with death, & just about everyone has a memory of the first time they watched a beloved character in a children's film pass away. For a lot of family movies, one character death is enough, & sometimes it's a death that's only implied rather than shown on the screen. For others, though, the deaths come in waves, and we watch numerous characters face mortal peril and often outright lose their lives in a way that's a little overwhelming. Just as we remember our first big character deaths, we also remember the first time we watched a film where it just seemed like everyone was dying. Here are some where way too many characters die." - looper.com
