MovieWeb's 19 Saddest Movies That Are Certified Tearjerkers (Sep2022)

"As a vehicle for emotion, few other mediums are as powerful as the moving image. The movies on this list all fall into the latter category for different reasons, but definitely shouldn't be movie night picks unless a person is ready to feel something. While one might not want to watch a sad movie every day, there's nothing like the true catharsis of shedding a tear because of an on-screen tragedy, igniting every ounce of empathy in the body. These films elicit an emotional response because they hit on something personal for people, something we can latch onto and relate to, even if they seem to bear no resemblance to one's own life. So, whether it's romantic dramas, stories of families torn apart or reunited after many years, or even tales of injustice on an individual or massive scale which reduce one to a puddle of tears, these are some of the best-certified tearjerkers." - movieweb.com
