Due to Anne\u2019s wishes to stay out of a nursing home, her care falls upon her husband, Georges. Although the film tugs on heartstrings with its portrayal of complications the elderly may go through, it really goes for the jugular in its depictions of the helplessness one feels while seeing a suffering loved one. While the movie will hit you particularly hard if you\u2019ve witnessed an older family member go through similar struggles, this achingly realistic story will definitely have anyone and everyone reaching for the tissues.<\/p>\n<h3>2.

(Image: Pixar Animation Studios)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Any veteran watcher of sad movies knows that nothing makes us cry quite like nostalgia. Those who are Millennials and older have probably watched the original <em>Toy Story<\/em> films when they were kids, and would undoubtedly be excited about the third iteration, though it was released almost 11 years later. In <em>Toy Story 3<\/em>, sentient toys Woody, Buzz, and the rest of the gang from Andy\u2019s collection find themselves largely neglected, now that Andy\u2019s grown up. After being mistakenly donated to a local day care centre, they\u2019re introduced to a brand new world led by Lots-O\u2019-Huggin\u2019 Bear. The themes of love, entering adulthood, and friendship are prevalent throughout this animated movie, and famously left cinemas full of sentimental adults weeping upon its release.<\/p>\n<h3>3. Atonement (2007)<\/h3>\n<figure id=\"attachment_200922\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-200922\" style=\"width: 1400px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-200922 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2023\/11\/sad-movies-atonement.jpg\" alt=\"sad movies to make you cry atonement\" width=\"1400\" height=\"1000\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2023\/11\/sad-movies-atonement.jpg 1400w, https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2023\/11\/sad-movies-atonement-900x643.jpg 900w, https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2023\/11\/sad-movies-atonement-768x549.jpg 768w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 1400px) 100vw, 1400px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1400px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 1400\/1000;\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-200922\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">A confused young girl\u2019s mistake forever alters the lives of two lovers in <i>Atonement<\/i> (Image: Universal Pictures)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Set in 1935 England, <em>Atonement<\/em> follows the wealthy Tallis family through a life-changing incident and its lasting effects. For those who have not read the 2001 novel this film is based on, everything may first seem like an epic romantic saga between two lovers (played by Keira Knightley and James McAvoy) from differing social classes. However, things take a heartbreaking turn when the youngest Tallis sibling, Briony, makes an accusation that derails everyone\u2019s lives. The beautifully shot <em>Atonement<\/em> is a classic English tearjerker, lifted by intense performances and a startling conclusion. Although the role of Briony is an extraordinary breakthrough performance by a young Saoirse Ronan, viewers may have a hard time forgiving her for the pain and tears she puts you through.<\/p>\n<h3>4. Marley &amp; Me (2008)<\/h3>\n<figure id=\"attachment_200923\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-200923\" style=\"width: 1400px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-200923 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2023\/11\/sad-movies-marly-me.jpg\" alt=\"sad movies that make you cry marley &amp; me\" width=\"1400\" height=\"1000\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2023\/11\/sad-movies-marly-me.jpg 1400w, https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2023\/11\/sad-movies-marly-me-900x643.jpg 900w, https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2023\/11\/sad-movies-marly-me-768x549.jpg 768w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 1400px) 100vw, 1400px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1400px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 1400\/1000;\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-200923\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><i>Marley and Me<\/i> is based on a true story of a mischievous family dog (Image: Fox 2000 Pictures)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>No discussion of sad movies that make people cry can leave out emotional films about pets. Based on a bestselling memoir, <em>Marley and Me<\/em> sees the already lovable Owen Wilson and Jennifer Aniston outshined by a playful labrador retriever. Following the Grogan couple from their adoption of a puppy named Marley, the movie depicts the naughty antics of the dog as the couple begins to grow their family. Although most viewers can predict how the story ends, the emotional weight doesn\u2019t sting any less when it hits. Anyone who\u2019s ever loved an animal can count on a few rounds of cathartic cries as they witness how even the \u201cWorld\u2019s Worst Dog\u201d can be the best dog to those who love him.<\/p>\n<h3>5.
