MovieWeb's 10 Sad Black and White Movies That Are Total Tearjerkers

"Black and White films drain out the excess of the visual form and capitalize solely on the dramatic effects of the characters' performances and visual aesthetics. The best use of the medium was done post-World War II when storytelling acted as a cathartic process to make sense of the emotional effects of the war. Italian neorealism was the product of this social phenomenon, where films focused on the life of the struggling working class. The impact of the cinematic movement spread across regions and generations of filmmakers; here are 10 tragic black and white films that leave you with a heavy heart and teary eyes." - movieweb.com
