Cinema Paradiso. Wonderful Italian film about a boy’s relationship with an elder in the town as he mentally escapes war torn Sicily. Just wholesome and hits hard. It’s a beautiful story and the soundtrack by Ennio Morricone, ohhhh so good.

I found the entire concept, but especially the "happy ending" of Paulie to be tragic and extremely depressing to me.
My mother loved Beaches and Steel Magnolias but they always ruined my day. Then my mother died of cancer and they crossed into the unwatchable list.
Les Mis
for example: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=ulJXiB5i_q0
The ending of that Scrubs episode with Brendan Fraser https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=e__1KU7lg-4
The ending of Jurassic Bark https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=0WBbKSFhw9A
Watching the music video for My Heart Will Go On
The ending of this Cold Case episode https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=jMc_RyGBjBE
The ending of Pan's Labyrinth
The music video for Hozier's Take Me To Church
The liberation of a concentration camp in Band Of Brothers
The ending to that depressing as fuck Speilberg film A.I. Don't ever watch it unless you want to ruin your day.

THIS scence from "Platoon" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QEv3zzKyiFQ
The music is adagio for strings which has to be the saddest most emotional score ever
Toy Story 4. The scene where Woody says goodbye to the rest of the toys and goes off on his new adventure with Bo Peep. Gets me every time.
The original Toy Story was the first movie I remember seeing in a theatre so maybe there's some nostalgia contributing to that.
When Mufasa dies.
Another one is the movie 'The Fountain' which is played excellently by Hugh Jackman.
the street performance scene in bocchi the rock, no matter what ill always start crying when i watch it
Ernest Goes to Camp, when the kids pick on him and reject him. He sings the song “All I Needed Was a Friend”. No joke, shit hits hard

That part of airbud where he tries to push the dog away and abandon him. Sorry in advance.
I've been watching Shrinking and it has a lot of those moments
Yeah, I don't know which is more effective at catching me off-guard with shit I've not thought about in decades: Shrinking or The Bear. 😅
definately honey, I blew everyone. Oh man especially that scener where.......oh wait. tear. tear jerker. my bad.
"It's not your fault" - Good Will Hunting
My Life with Michael Keaton and Nicole what’s her name
This is the top of the list. Nothing else comes close when you need a really good and sincere cry.
"A dog's purpose" movie's main purpose was to be tear jerker.
The fault in our stars was so sad I wish I hadn't ever watched it. I hate that movie.
The Christmas Dinner at the end of "Seven Fishes" Season 2 of The Bear. Cuts a little too much on the dotted line for me.
It's not a movie, it's an old avertisement, and I guarantee you if it doesn't stir something in you, you're not human:
That crash was so cartoonish, I couldn't help but laugh at that.
"I love you Daddy" -Clannad
Every time and even when I just think about it
So my sister bought me the wind rises... I went it watching it thinking it was another fun film... I called her after I finished and told her I was not mentally prepared for that.
Such a beautiful film though...
