19 Celebrities Reveal the Sad Movies That Made Them Cry | Screen Tests | W Magazine 

Something really satisfying watching actors talk about films

Why is this just now popping up in my recommended 8 years after it was released

It took 8 years to come in my suggested video? Anyone else got this too?

This video was lowkey ahead of its time. I would think this is a 2019 type video

I was so taken aback when Javier Bardem said Bambi, and again when Colin Firth said Dumbo. With all the films they must have seen and all their perspective, those are the ones that came to their minds. Adorable.

Holy cow Natalie Portman has such a lovely voice and presence

Forrest Gump talking over Jenny's grave telling her how smart Forrest Jr is.

I love how Dakota and Elle Fanning both cried at "Marley and Me" on separate occasions...

Schindler's List. By far. That scene at the end when Liam says "I could have done more" gets me every single time.

‘The Boy in the Striped Pajamas’ is one that made me sob uncontrollably. Not just a few tears like so many other films mentioned in this video, but really cry out loud. I still think Vera Farmiga is criminally underrated.

Forrest Gump. The scene where he’s standing over Jenny’s grave and talks to her about how Forrest Jr. is doing and the way his voice cracks when he says “he’s so smart, Jenny.” Gets me every time.

“The Pianist” - this movie had me sobbing several times and I actually had to take a break and pause the movie because it was so heartbreaking

the Fanning sisters both said the same movie lol

totally agree about Dumbo. when she takes her trunk and wraps it around him for the last time. so sad. it's a child's worst nightmare to lose their parents, and the film is targeted TO them!

Jesse Eisenberg: "I had a class where we watched this documentary and it had the greatest existential crisis ever" Javier Bardem: "Has anyone already said Bambi? Also every Hallmark Channel Christmas commercial"

Titanic. I was 11 and it was the first time I really cried over a movie.

"They weren't just English, they were skinheads" hahahahaha

green mile. ''I'm tired, boss. Tired of being on the road, lonely as a sparrow in the rain. I'm tired of never having a buddy to be with, to tell me where we's going to, coming from or why. Mostly, I'm tired of people being ugly to each other. I'm tired of all the pain I feel and hear in the world every day. There's too much of it. It's like pieces of glass in my head, all the time... Can you understand?" just this one quote makes me sob every time.

Schindler List, when Schindler receives the ring from Stern and breaks down, it always get me

The Lion King. The scene Mufasa dies will always make me cry. Forever.

Was completely surprised when I watch the movie Click, with Adam Sandler, that one caught me off guard, I couldn't stop bawling.

Everytime watching the opening sequence of UP, without fail I cannot help but bawl my eyes out everytime.

I don’t know if it’s just me but inside out when bingbong dies😭😭😭

I can't really remember a particular movie making me cry... probably because I cry on all of them.

As a kid mine was Bridge to Teribithia, i cried both reading the book and seeing the movie. more recently Blue Valentine, it was recommended to me by a cute boy and i ended up in tears at 2 am watching it on netflix

The final scene of Gladiator always gets me, when Hans Zimmer's glorious soundtrack starts coming in as Maximus starts walking towards his family.

Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. Every. Damn. Time.

Interstellar. That movie has a few different scenes that really tug at your heart strings. First moment where Matthew Mcconaughey's character is leaving earth to save it and his young daughter who he holds a close connection to feels like her dad is abandoning her and won't say goodbye to him. When Mcconaughey's character encounters a massive time difference when he is in outer space and he finally gets a message log from his kids; who are now all grown up and are older than he was when he left earth. And lastly, who could forget that scene where Mcconaughey becomes stuck in another dimension that is made up of past memories of his life. And it cuts back to that first sad scene in the movie where his daughter won't say goodbye to him and Mcconaughey starts screaming trying to talk to his daughter through this other dimension "Don't let me leave Murph!" How gut wrenching 😥 Then he finally arrives back to earth like 80 years later to find that his daughter is still alive but an old frail woman who insisted on being in cryo sleep because she knew her dad would eventually come home... Then I think something along these lines were spoken by him to his daughter, "No parent should have to bury their child".... That hits the hardest

Dead Poet's Society, when they all stand up and say Captain My Captain at the end

oh gosh, Call Me By Your Name. I couldn't stop crying at the end scene when Timmy was crying by the fireplace. I was deeply sad for over a week.

Stepmom with Julia Roberts and Susan Sarandon. MY GOD.

A Walk to Remember gets me every single time. It's still my favourite love story 😢❤

Every time Leo Dicaprio dies. Which is a lot.

for those who didn't understand what Mark said; Toto Le Héros (toto the hero)

None of them had better watch Grave of the Fireflies, then.

Bridge of Teribintha haven't watched it since I first watched it 😅

Titanic and Atonement for me. I cry for an hour with each of them.

Bridge to Terabithia and Never Let Me Go slay me every single time, and I think I cry harder every time I watch them

For me it was Hachi: A dog’s tale. Oh when that dog died 🐕. I cried for months and named my dog Hachi.

Titanic hands down, when Leo froze to death and Rose lets him go and he starts to sink in that water omgg I’m bout to cry just typing this 😢 lol

Still Alice. The speech she gives on Alzheimer's about struggling, not suffering. That really got to me.

Goodwill Hunting - the scene where he’s saying ‘it’s not your fault’ over and over. Also Mystic River - the scene where he’s screaming ‘is that my daughter?!’

The final scene at Coco. Absolute waterworks.

"In the name of the father" also gets me. The fact that was a true story and it was so cruel and unfair and took and changed the life of this family, also Daniel D. L. performance was heartrending.

I love that Dakota and Elle had the same answer.

Adam Sandler's Click (2006), shot me right in the feels.

Brave. The connection Merida develops with her mother, and near the end when she thought she lost her mom forever, and hugs her tight telling her how much she loves her. Being that close to my mother myself, that scene always wracks me with sobs.

Elle Fanning's friend: "Oh well I like cats" Cliff Booth (Brad Pitt): We all do

Mine was this movie called "a little princess" with a young Liam Cunningham (sir davos from game of thrones). The scene where he remembers his daughter and they're like crying in the rain, DAYUM THAT GOT ME.

Hachiko - A Dog's Tale

Life is Beautiful! Such a beautiful and sad movie. I feel that everyone must watch this movie at least once in their life.

The most recent was The Imitation Game, cried like a baby. The ending was sooooo unfair but historically accurate :(

Helena Bonham Carter is simply a Goddess.

I think.......Grave of the fireflies was one of the most heartbreaking movies of all time for.

Call Me By Your Name cause it's beyond beautiful in every imaginable way

E.T. " I'll be right here." Gets me everytime.

The Pursuit of Happyness made me cry, and when I was younger, I cried when Tom Hanks lost Wilson in Castaway. XD

I was 10 years old when I saw A.I and the moment when his 'adoptive' mother leaves him alone, and then in the end when he wishes to spend just 1 day with her, I remember that I cried and I liked very much that movie.

Inside Out - the scene where Sadness takes control near the end of the movie. As someone who finds it difficult to express her emotions and/or often hides them, I found it very relatable. Also, when both Sadness and Joy create a new memory together. That was definitely a happy cry. It showed growth and maturity in that character, which I thought was a lovely moment.

The most recent movie that made me cry was Inside Out. Two scenes for instance: where Joy cries in the memory dump while looking at the core memories. The big scene that got me more was when Riley returns to her house when Sadness takes over the core memories. I started crying when Riley cried about missing her old life and her parents comforting her. Very well directed and emotionally engaging.

Peter Jackson's King Kong. When Kong fell off the Empire State Building and the music and the woman's vocals came up, I started crying so hard.

The end of Lion had me bawling, even my dad who doesn't cry at anything was crying. It's the only movie that I cried about driving back from the cinema. Also the Japanese animated film Koe no Katachi (A Silent Voice) had me crying my eyes out for a solid 2/3 of the movie. Both great films, both on Netflix, go check them out

The Fox and the Hound. Still.

Grave Of the fireflies. I never cried like that in a movie,that’s the beauty of the movie,you get attached to the two kids And I’ve watched in Japanese(as you should),the laughter of the little girl at the beginning contrasting with what they went through and that ending.... It’s the best movie I ever saw

The Green Mile, Pursuit of Happiness, Seven Pounds

omg, Interstellar... and the "it's not your fault" scene from Good Will Hunting.

Colin Firth's description of Dumbo is soulcrushingly accurate. "A baby elephant's mom gets locked up in prison"

Was expecting one of 'em to say I Am Sam. I remember watching that movie when I was 12,and man it was heartwrenching.

Of the more recent movies, Manchester by the Sea really got to me. Casey Affleck's performance was about as close to perfect as you can get. Also, Silver Linings Playbook makes me cry, but in a good way. David O'Russell and the cast knocked that one out of the park.

That was one of the most amazing video I have seen on youtube. To see actors talk so passionately about scenes in movies that have such meaning to them is so moving. Thank you for the video!

The Iron Giant and Saving Private Ryan make me cry every time I watch them.

"My friends, you bow to no one" - TLOTR: Return of the king. Every. Single.Time

I cry at so many films, I can't even keep track anymore! I'm like Javier Bardem in that way. What I do know is the film that I cry the hardest and the most at: Blood Diamond. That film with Leonardo Dicaprio was so riveting, so powerful and so very bittersweet. I loved it so much. I've seen it four times now and every time, like clock work, I full-on sob at like 4 different parts in the film. HE SHOULD'VE WON THE OSCAR FOR THAT PERFORMANCE!

For me the movie that made me cry the hardest was The Elephant Man. I don't think I'll be able to watch it again for awhile. It had a very deep affect on me. I really love that movie though. David Lynch is an awesome filmmaker!

A walk to remember. When he was learning to dance for her. “Our love is like the wind, you cant see it, but you can feel it”

My sad movie playlist: 1. The Green Mile 2. Schindler's List 3. Sophie's Choice 4. Passion of the Christ 5. The Champ (a 1979 Jon Voight movie) 6. Dumbo 7. Braveheart (The William Wallace execution scene)

1. Sophie's Choice - in the end, when she has to choose between two little children... so tragic and desperate, you must have no heart if you're able to keep it together. 2. City Island - the scene towards the end when they are all together and the truth comes out, and they accept each other, very touching 3. Good Will Hunting - 'it's not your fault', don't know why but gets me every time.

bridge to terabithia - the line where he says ‘next time, we should invite leslie” and also the pursuit of happyness - the emotion you can feel when he gets told he’s gotten the job despite him trying to stay professional and then he runs to get christopher😭

I love that this has come up in my recommended 8 years after its release

For me, it had to be *Stand by Me* 😭

It has to be My Sister's Keeper for me. I cry a lot while watching movies but usually it's just one particular scene that makes me sad but this movie made me cry from the begining till the end.

Toss up between the scenes in ET: The Extra Terrestrial ... 1) When you think ET is dying and 2) When Elliot has to say goodbye to ET.

Javier said Bambi. Colin said Dumbo. Let's add one to the list: The Land Before Time.

Cast away When Wilson got separated from Tom hanks. I was like 7, and literally bawling like crazy.

JAVIER BARDEM! He is just so cute talking about the Christmas spots! So adorable!

oh lord I can't even talk about Dumbo.

I agree with Justin when it comes to Forrest Gump.

Hachiko anyone? No?

Grave of the Fireflies is what did me in. Fuck that movie :'(

What Dreams May Come. When he sees his mom in heaven again. omg. Literally a tear is running down my face as I type this!

"Testament Of Youth" and "One Day" makes me cry every time. Hard core crying too. Both beautifully filmed movies but with sad stories.

Beaches is the saddest movie ever. I cannot believe no one has mentioned that movie starring Bette Midler and Barbara Hershey. I actually am not an easy “crier” to movies but no matter how many times I’ve watched that movie (100 times or more), my tears well up and pour out. I dare you not to cry to Beaches!!!!!

I am Sam... can't even get through 20 mins without bawling...

Lmao Colin Firth says Dumbo the second time to hear how stupid it sounds. I cry when I watch Dumbo too, love u colin

probably the lovely bones and the basketball diaries. obv the story of the lovely bones is heartbreaking, but the cinematography just makes it so much more emotional, for me anyway. the basketball diaries is probably one of the best movies ive ever seen - if you haven't seen it, i recommend you do (leo dicaprio pre titanic!) hands down, amazing film about drug addiction - haunting

Thank you so much Andrew Garfield. I couldn't expect someone to pick "In the Name of the Father", just as I would have. My favorite movie in the world, it gets me every time. And by the way, this is a great video with a brilliant idea.

"I like cats" LMAO!

Andrew Garfield mention In The Name Of The Father. Omg I bawl thru the entire film. Daniel Day Lewis and Peter Postlethwaite are just incredible in it.

The Radio Flyer for me. I had to wrap my head around the ending for so long… still think about it and gets me choked up.

13 Going on 30 made me cry so much when I was a teenager. Recently, it is A Star is Born. (8 yrs and it is just now that YT recommended it to me.lol.)
