So I'm really in the mood to watch some really depressing movies...and I mean movies that will make me cry and mope for days on end. Here's my list so far...

Somewhat Depressing:
The Notebook
The Mist
Titantic
Pearl Harbor
The Guardian
Phantom of the Opera

Depressing:
Se7en
Pay it Forward
Message in a Bottle (haven't seen it yet)
A Walk To Remember
My Sister's Keeper (haven't seen it yet)
Vertical Limit (haven't seen it yet)


Super Depressing Beyond All Reason:
Seven Pounds
The Butterfly Effect [Director's Cut]

I'd like some more suggestions...also feel free to rate movies on YOUR depressing movie factor. I want to watch the least depressing movies, to the most depressing.

Thank you.

Hands Down the Most depressing Movie I've seen is surprisingly not a romance...



It's Boy in the Striped Pyjamas



The ending, every time I see it, I cringe, It's so sad.

Oh, I cried a little when I watched "The Last Song", but "Dear John" is just crazily sad.



Ohhh I died when I watched "Hachiko: A Dog's Story".



My Sister's Keeper is definitely sad, but recommended!

Titanic was depressing because Jack died. A walk to remember was depressing because Jamie died. Um, I can't think of much, but Click was somewhat depressing(?) Because he had such a screwy life! in his dream. ;P
