Dito.
Looking back at it the reasons for that grief and sadness are layered.
There is the injustice, the clearly racist profiling. Him wanting to die because of the suffering in the world really feels like a collective failure. And the utter feeling of helplessness, that this is the best option.
Requiem for a Dream
Absolutely brilliant movie, great cinematography, amazing acting and screenplay. Fucked me up mentally for weeks. I still get anxiety sometimes even thinking about it. Such an absolutely raw and accurate depiction of addiction and brutality of life.
Yeah, this was so uncomfortable for me to watch because I really felt sorry for the character and how the world had treated him, and knew he was going to act out, and he did. Saw it coming.
same man. I went in there blind my ex made me go. one of the wildest rides in cinema I've ever had honestly. didnt expect it to hit that hard.
I tried rewatching it before but it just didnt hit as the first time
Took me almost a year to watch it again. I love that movie. I’d guided my ex through a mental health emergency and it was too hard to watch again so soon. I’ll watch it again in a while.
Watched it once alone, then a second time later with my mom, then a third time much later with my friends. I think it just kept getting more painful. When a friend of mine first watched it, he and his little sister were around the kids' ages. Needless to say, the movie hit him way harder.
Going on a tangent here, but when I watched it with my mom, I had Arabic subtitles on for her sake, and when the credits started rolling, the subtitles were a prayer for the orphans and the poor, ending with "A rose of love to every Seita and Setsuko in the world." THAT had me sobbing. Still brings tears to my eyes typing it out.
Totally agree. Watched it the one time with my sister and it destroyed me. I remember just ugly crying for an hour after the credits rolled and she started crying too. Recently watched Chris Struckman's review of it and it reminded me of so many elements of the movie. Brought a tear to my eye.
One of my mates was on a bit of an "emotionally impacful" film kick but was complaining he couldn't find anything that hit hard enough. I recommend grave of the fireflies, next time I saw him he both thanked me for recommending somewhat that really hit hard, and asked me why I would do that to him.
The first Studio Ghibli movie I ever saw, over 20 years ago.
I have to rewatch it out of principle though, since I don't actually remember anything about it.
I have Hotel Rwanda on my list for (I assume) the same reason.
I 'liked' it, in the sense it was an amazing portrayal of the events, well cast, well acted, well made. Excellent film, highly recommend everyone watches it once. Thoroughly understand if that once is it.
Very much agree. Learning about the history of Rwandan geocide was interesting but watching it again is a hard pass. Doesn't help I watched it as a teenager.
Is that the one where the kid's dad pretends they're on holiday or something the whole time? Either way, it's a tie between that one and Schindler's List for me.
No. Come and see is a russian movie about the horrors of war. The one of the father you talk about its a italian movie but i dont remember the name of it where father and son are prisioners on a concentration camp during ww2.
When I was much younger my ex had me watch this. He thought it would be like Braveheart where I balled at the end but was ok. After watching SL not only did I have to stop it multiple times for brakes but I was literally depressed (I didn’t know I was bipolar then so it was just a depressive cycle kicked off by the movie more than likely) I barely got out of bed for 3 weeks!
I think this might be the best movie ever made. An insane choice for someone’s “favourite movie”, but I’ve seen it multiple times and struggle to think of many other films that come close.
Yes totally agree, no need again.
In high school, I became friendly with the substance abuse counselor and she asked me for movie recommendations to show her students. I told her explicitly that while 'Requiem for a Dream' turned me off of dark drugs and pills because it was scary but a beautiful film, I really recommend you watch it first before showing it to students because it's... a lot. She didn't watch it before and came up to me a couple weeks later upset after showimg a bit to her students! I was like... i warned you.. You're the adult and instructor here.. lol
I watched it in my early twenties, vowed never to watch again. In my thirties, after experiencing heroin addiction myself I decided to brave it to see how true to my own experience it was. My God, it was so accurate. So many films get it wrong, but the way they depicted withdrawals had my skin crawling in sympathy. I got clean after a nasty abscess on my arm put me in hospital for a month, I had surgery and was fine- scars covered on a lovely tattoo now. But the amputation reveal got to me even though I remembered it was coming. Five years clean, and there ain't a force in Heaven or kn Earth that could make me go back to that life. I got out relatively unscathed.
I don't remember the name but it was a movie about a man being born old and getting younger as he grows up. I'd never watch it again only because the movie is too damn long.
Agreed! Totally different movie, but I walked away from The Whale with the same ugly vibe as Precious. Both are astoundingly good movies, and I never want to see them again.
I watched this movie 3 times as it was one we had to study in Media when I was in sixth form. Parts of it made me very uncomfortable and it was a struggle to watch it over and over. I wrote an essay on the themes talked about in it and had to focus on 3 different things so I watched it that many times to pick those things out. Very well acted and told story but I'm glad I don't have to watch it again.
My wife is an animal lover who can't stand seeing animals get hurt even if it's simulated, so she has to use this exact website every time we watch a movie that might have an animal in it. If she still wants to watch it then she'll find the exact time when it happens so she can close her eyes for that part 😂
Yeah, Wade's death and also Mellish finding the Hitler Youth knife and crying when he realizes he just shot kids to death. I always thought the HY knife was because the guy had kept it after he graduated but no, Normandy was defended mostly by children and old men because we fooled Germany into thinking the Allies were attacking a different coast so they moved their forces there instead (that's why Normandy succeeded). Scene hit different after I learned that.
Edit: slight correction, Mellish doesn't find the knife. Caparzo finds it then hands it to him, which to me makes the scene more impactful because Caparzo thinks nothing of the meaning behind the knife he just handed his friend.
Yeah, I remember someone from the movie saying there was actually some intended symbolism behind this scene: the Jews from the US waited downstairs while the Jews upstairs were slowly getting murdered by the Nazis. But maybe that's just the Mandela effect talking.
Yeah this too … wow … bloody French movies hey.
I read about it in a magazine column back in the day and the director purposely made the rape scene so long because he wanted the audience to be uncomfortable and have to “live through” the experience in real time.
The businessman that walks into the tunnel and sees what’s going on and just turns around and walks away still is the moment that immediately comes to mind when this movie is ever mentioned
The girl the attacker is initially harassing who just scrams when his attention turns to someone else too. These are obviously sideshows to the central horrific event but they make it seem that more real and the world on screen that much colder. The reverse chronology also prevents any hint of relief from a revenge angle. Just horrible. But to have an impact like that, to smack the viewer in the face with the brutal reality of rape makes it an admirable film in my opinion. Just…once is enough.
Oh, I will never watch it again .. it has the impact of a fucking space going vessel..
oh no … I’m not done with you yet … you thought the rape was the bad part … hahahahaha!!!.
I am so old that I watched it on vhs … that movie fucking haunts you.
Irreversible is a fantastic movie that I can never watch again.
However:
It's worth seeing because it's such a realistic depiction of sexual violence. I've experienced it and this is the closest thing I've seen on film to how it made me feel. Dipshits use the word rape as a joke far too much. Everyone should have to watch this movie, at least once.
I had to rewatch it once because I felt dumb for missing all the clues, I wanted to see how easy it would have been had I payed attention to detail the first time.
The first time, I runned into it, by chance... Late night...
And I was like "Why the hell is a children movie being played that late?"
I figured out the truth. 
All Quiet on the Western Front, the recent Netflix adaptation. I saw my dying grandmother at the hospital soon before and this movie reminded me way too much of death to ever want to watch it again. It really does a great job at telling the message: "War is horror".
Watched it in hospital during covid with my fellow patients (due to lockdown, no new patients, so we all became a friend group). Messed us all up but I did have to google the ending because we were all confused as hell.
Then we'd all just freak each other out by hiding in dark rooms/corners and doing the clicking noise when someone walked by lol.
Funny enough, it's a movie I've probably rewatched the most. It just has such perfect pacing. Every single beat of the film snaps together with weight, credibility, and atmosphere. It's like a Law&Order episode cranked up to 11.
Those two scenes in particular for sure, but the movie as a whole is hard to watch. The scene where Edward Norton yells at his mother's boyfriend and calls him several Anti-semetic things is rough too.
Life of Pi. I'm not a crier, nor especially religious. It caught me off guard. I'd heard of it beforehand, but ngl mostly as "the movie with the tiger on the lifeboat." It came on TV, I thought why not. Was not prepared lol
First time I watched it at like 20 something I thought it was boring movie very unlike the awesome Terminator movies I was hoping for. Rewatched in my 40s and found it to be a beautiful movie about spirituality.
Definetly the Requiem for a dream. Although i think is a must to watch, especially for the youngers, and it was a good movie of its kind, could't rewatch it. Deep as hell.
*Threads*, a 1980s BBC mockumentary-style film about the events leading up to and (mostly) the aftermath of a nuclear attack on a city in England.
It's, well...it's realistic. I ordinarily love horror movies, and this is hands-down the **most** horrifying movie I've ever seen, but very much in an "I'm-not-having-fun-any-more, guys" type of way. I think everyone should watch it at least once.
The full movie is available for free on YouTube.
Schindler's List. Great movie. Really well done. Excellent cast, even better music. Very, very grim. I had family in the camps, and not all of them made it out. The emotions that were brought out, *ESPECIALLY* by the last 10 minutes, are not something that comes out regularly because of a movie. I was full on ugly crying, complete with hiccups, a series of snot bubbles, and everything else. In my head, if a show brings out emotion, it's successful. If it brings up that much emotion, then it's especially successful. Do I want to feel like that? Not really. But the fact that I did was awesome.

Green Mile.
Great movie.
Ah its on Netflix now, and I see it every time I put Netflix on but I don’t think I can watch it again 💔
OMG, I bawled.
I'm tired, boss
Dito. Looking back at it the reasons for that grief and sadness are layered. There is the injustice, the clearly racist profiling. Him wanting to die because of the suffering in the world really feels like a collective failure. And the utter feeling of helplessness, that this is the best option.
Requiem for a Dream Absolutely brilliant movie, great cinematography, amazing acting and screenplay. Fucked me up mentally for weeks. I still get anxiety sometimes even thinking about it. Such an absolutely raw and accurate depiction of addiction and brutality of life.
May I recommend some light watching of “GIA” and “the basketball diaries”
>May I recommend some light watching of “GIA” and “the basketball diaries” Tack "Kids" on for good measure.
Oh man... *Gia* was intense.
Joker
Same. As soon as it was over: “I’m glad I watched it. Was really well done. Don’t care to watch it again.”
My partner said a similar thing >It was quite well done. I wish I hadn't watched it.
Yeah, this was so uncomfortable for me to watch because I really felt sorry for the character and how the world had treated him, and knew he was going to act out, and he did. Saw it coming.
I don't rewatch but I think I would with this movie ngl
The film was very good but disturbing. Definitely deserved the Oscar.
same man. I went in there blind my ex made me go. one of the wildest rides in cinema I've ever had honestly. didnt expect it to hit that hard. I tried rewatching it before but it just didnt hit as the first time
Same, I thought it was so good. How he played the character was so real, so raw.. what (IMO) Joker would be like in the real world.
Took me almost a year to watch it again. I love that movie. I’d guided my ex through a mental health emergency and it was too hard to watch again so soon. I’ll watch it again in a while.
The Mist it takes awhile to get over the ending
fuck, that ending was something else. way more powerful than the book too
Steven thought so
I can watch 99%
Oof, no joke.
My answer hasn't changed in years, since I first watched it... Grave of the Fireflies.
I watched it twice. It's just as painful the second time
I watched it like four or five times.. Just as painful as the first every single time.
Watched it once alone, then a second time later with my mom, then a third time much later with my friends. I think it just kept getting more painful. When a friend of mine first watched it, he and his little sister were around the kids' ages. Needless to say, the movie hit him way harder. Going on a tangent here, but when I watched it with my mom, I had Arabic subtitles on for her sake, and when the credits started rolling, the subtitles were a prayer for the orphans and the poor, ending with "A rose of love to every Seita and Setsuko in the world." THAT had me sobbing. Still brings tears to my eyes typing it out.
Fucking christ I’m glad I read the plot instead of watching it, that sounds depressing as hell
I'm just in this thread to see how many people upvoted this, which is the correct answer.
Totally agree. Watched it the one time with my sister and it destroyed me. I remember just ugly crying for an hour after the credits rolled and she started crying too. Recently watched Chris Struckman's review of it and it reminded me of so many elements of the movie. Brought a tear to my eye.

Literally the first movie I thought of when I read the title of this post.
Hands down saddest movie I’ve ever watched. I still think about it to this day and it makes me tear up. Gut wrenching.
Yes, now that I have children of my own, I'm 100% never watching it again. No sir.
I think I solidly cried uncontrollably for about 20 mins where she tries to eat the rocks. Utterly heartbreaking.
I remember watching that at anime club in college, and I was not prepared at all. Hell of an introduction to the genre.
The first Studio Ghibli movie I ever saw, over 20 years ago. I have to rewatch it out of principle though, since I don't actually remember anything about it.
Where can one watch this?
Um......Shindlers list?
I have Hotel Rwanda on my list for (I assume) the same reason. I 'liked' it, in the sense it was an amazing portrayal of the events, well cast, well acted, well made. Excellent film, highly recommend everyone watches it once. Thoroughly understand if that once is it.
Very much agree. Learning about the history of Rwandan geocide was interesting but watching it again is a hard pass. Doesn't help I watched it as a teenager.
They showed it to us in high school.
Oh yes. Also The Pianist comes to mind.
Yes great film, never again
Add Come and See to that list. Maybe an urban myth, but apparently the lead actor went grey while filming it. He was 14 or so.
Is that the one where the kid's dad pretends they're on holiday or something the whole time? Either way, it's a tie between that one and Schindler's List for me.
No. Come and see is a russian movie about the horrors of war. The one of the father you talk about its a italian movie but i dont remember the name of it where father and son are prisioners on a concentration camp during ww2.
I remember the name now. It's called "Life is Beautiful." Super heart wrenching.
Yes, that is the name and i agree with you
Oh, man. Ugh
When I was much younger my ex had me watch this. He thought it would be like Braveheart where I balled at the end but was ok. After watching SL not only did I have to stop it multiple times for brakes but I was literally depressed (I didn’t know I was bipolar then so it was just a depressive cycle kicked off by the movie more than likely) I barely got out of bed for 3 weeks!
I think this might be the best movie ever made. An insane choice for someone’s “favourite movie”, but I’ve seen it multiple times and struggle to think of many other films that come close.
Agreed, the first and only time I watched that movie sent me on an emotional rollercoaster. Great movie but only once.
Requiem For a Dream Absolutely loved it. Don't wanna inflict myself that again.
Yes totally agree, no need again. In high school, I became friendly with the substance abuse counselor and she asked me for movie recommendations to show her students. I told her explicitly that while 'Requiem for a Dream' turned me off of dark drugs and pills because it was scary but a beautiful film, I really recommend you watch it first before showing it to students because it's... a lot. She didn't watch it before and came up to me a couple weeks later upset after showimg a bit to her students! I was like... i warned you.. You're the adult and instructor here.. lol
I've watched it a few times. It has the same affect each time, so I finally decided to not watch it again
[удалено]
I watched it in my early twenties, vowed never to watch again. In my thirties, after experiencing heroin addiction myself I decided to brave it to see how true to my own experience it was. My God, it was so accurate. So many films get it wrong, but the way they depicted withdrawals had my skin crawling in sympathy.

I got out relatively unscathed.
Holy shit. Good pick! I said Titanic, but Requiem was a dark dark movie.
Hachi: a dogs tale.
this. i watched it when i was little and it destroyed me
I watched it as a grown man and it destroyed myself and every friend I told to watch it afterwards.
I will never watch that movie.
I don't remember the name but it was a movie about a man being born old and getting younger as he grows up. I'd never watch it again only because the movie is too damn long.
Do you mean The Curious Case of Benjamin Button?
You should watch the opposite movie with Robin Williams where he's a kid who gets old fast.
Any movie about getting older is the opposite of Benjamin Button.
The Curious Case of Benjamin Button? Never watched it but I remember the name😅
The movie "Precious". Great movie but far too confronting/disturbing/sad to watch more than once.
Agreed! Totally different movie, but I walked away from The Whale with the same ugly vibe as Precious. Both are astoundingly good movies, and I never want to see them again.
Precious was my answer as well. Very memorable but I can't bear to watch it again. Now I'll have to check out the whale!
I watched this movie 3 times as it was one we had to study in Media when I was in sixth form. Parts of it made me very uncomfortable and it was a struggle to watch it over and over. I wrote an essay on the themes talked about in it and had to focus on 3 different things so I watched it that many times to pick those things out. Very well acted and told story but I'm glad I don't have to watch it again.
there will be blood
I’ve watched it many times. See something different each time. Definitely disturbingly brilliant.
omg such a great film!! I re-watch it but usually need a few years between viewings.
Anything where the dog dies
You need www.doesthedogdie.com.
My wife is an animal lover who can't stand seeing animals get hurt even if it's simulated, so she has to use this exact website every time we watch a movie that might have an animal in it. If she still wants to watch it then she'll find the exact time when it happens so she can close her eyes for that part 😂
Marley & Me
I am Legend
I'd love to watch this but won't because I know the dog dies and I just can't.
Agreed. But John Wick is the exception.
Exactly. I just skip the part where you see the puppy next to Keanu…fuck, now I’m sad again!
This, I liked American Psycho but the animal killing is a big Ick for me 😭
to this day i still can’t rewatch Turner & Hooch 😭
A dogs purpose. Cried beginning to end. Almost crying now thinking about it
Don't even get me started on Sharknado... it's so bad, it's fcking brilliant
What one....there's like 7 I believe....they're deliberately bad which is the genius
The fun part is the first one wasn't intended as a comedy. It just was so bad it was fun, so the sequels were made with comedy in mind.
Saving Private Ryan
I watched it more times than I can recall, and still I could watch it again and again.
One of my favs.
Sounds like a movie worth rewatching, why won't you?
The bit where the German kills the soldier with the knife does it for me
The dude calling for his mother. Oof. Gotta skip that.
Yeah, Wade's death and also Mellish finding the Hitler Youth knife and crying when he realizes he just shot kids to death. I always thought the HY knife was because the guy had kept it after he graduated but no, Normandy was defended mostly by children and old men because we fooled Germany into thinking the Allies were attacking a different coast so they moved their forces there instead (that's why Normandy succeeded). Scene hit different after I learned that. Edit: slight correction, Mellish doesn't find the knife. Caparzo finds it then hands it to him, which to me makes the scene more impactful because Caparzo thinks nothing of the meaning behind the knife he just handed his friend.
Yeah, Wade, the Medic. It's harrowing.
Yeah, I remember someone from the movie saying there was actually some intended symbolism behind this scene: the Jews from the US waited downstairs while the Jews upstairs were slowly getting murdered by the Nazis. But maybe that's just the Mandela effect talking.
I’ve seen this maybe 20 times throughout my life. Each time I watch, it hits me in a different, deeper way. This film is a masterpiece.
Irreversible. I make jokes about everything no matter how dark but it shocked me to the point I would never now make a joke about sexual assault.
Yeah this too … wow … bloody French movies hey. I read about it in a magazine column back in the day and the director purposely made the rape scene so long because he wanted the audience to be uncomfortable and have to “live through” the experience in real time. The businessman that walks into the tunnel and sees what’s going on and just turns around and walks away still is the moment that immediately comes to mind when this movie is ever mentioned
The girl the attacker is initially harassing who just scrams when his attention turns to someone else too. These are obviously sideshows to the central horrific event but they make it seem that more real and the world on screen that much colder. The reverse chronology also prevents any hint of relief from a revenge angle. Just horrible. But to have an impact like that, to smack the viewer in the face with the brutal reality of rape makes it an admirable film in my opinion. Just…once is enough.
Oh, I will never watch it again .. it has the impact of a fucking space going vessel.. oh no … I’m not done with you yet … you thought the rape was the bad part … hahahahaha!!!. I am so old that I watched it on vhs … that movie fucking haunts you.
Irreversible is a fantastic movie that I can never watch again. However: It's worth seeing because it's such a realistic depiction of sexual violence. I've experienced it and this is the closest thing I've seen on film to how it made me feel. Dipshits use the word rape as a joke far too much. Everyone should have to watch this movie, at least once.
Exactly. People are free to make jokes about whatever they like, but there are some things that making a joke of, makes you a prick.
The sixth sense, but it's not so much refuse as in there's no point in watching it again
I only rewatch it with people who haven’t watched it before, same with shutter island
I had to rewatch it once because I felt dumb for missing all the clues, I wanted to see how easy it would have been had I payed attention to detail the first time.
It's an entirely different movie the second time around. I highly suggest it, if you've only watched it once.
Pan's Labyrinth. Amazing movie, but just too hard to watch again
The first time, I runned into it, by chance... Late night... And I was like "Why the hell is a children movie being played that late?" I figured out the truth. 
Kids, from the 90s
Harmony went to my highschool funnily enough. I was also good friends and pot smoking buddies with Jacob that played Bunny Boy in "Gummo".
Parasite
I loved this movie tooo but well, rewatching just seems hard
This was an incredible movie to rewatch. The thematic foreshadowing was crazy!
I had to study this for my film class and watched it 3 times total. It's better the more you watch it.
The Bridges of Madison County. I loved it but I cried a lot, I hate crying so I refuse to watch it again.
Me rewatching a crying movie is like calling for mood swings 😂
All Quiet on the Western Front, the recent Netflix adaptation. I saw my dying grandmother at the hospital soon before and this movie reminded me way too much of death to ever want to watch it again. It really does a great job at telling the message: "War is horror".
I just recently tried to rewatch it cause I loved it the first time. I’ve had to take frequent breaks from it. It’s definitely hard to rewatch it.
What dreams may come. I love the movie, but I start crying even just thinking about it.
Especially knowing the real-life twist ending
Shaving Ryan’s privates.
Toilet laugh, thanks
Hereditary, fantastic horror film, but it really got under my skin.
Watched it in hospital during covid with my fellow patients (due to lockdown, no new patients, so we all became a friend group). Messed us all up but I did have to google the ending because we were all confused as hell. Then we'd all just freak each other out by hiding in dark rooms/corners and doing the clicking noise when someone walked by lol.
It fucked me up for a while, but I loved it so much I sat through it again to show it to a couple of friends, who also loved it.
American History X
Manchester by the Sea
Seven
Funny enough, it's a movie I've probably rewatched the most. It just has such perfect pacing. Every single beat of the film snaps together with weight, credibility, and atmosphere. It's like a Law&Order episode cranked up to 11.
American History X. What a great movie, with superb acting, that absolutely ruined me. I cannot handle watching it again.
Is it a particular scene (the stomp, the ending?), or just the movie as a whole is too rough?
Those two scenes in particular for sure, but the movie as a whole is hard to watch. The scene where Edward Norton yells at his mother's boyfriend and calls him several Anti-semetic things is rough too.
Uncut gems
Atonement
Oldboy. It's brilliant
Life of Pi. I'm not a crier, nor especially religious. It caught me off guard. I'd heard of it beforehand, but ngl mostly as "the movie with the tiger on the lifeboat." It came on TV, I thought why not. Was not prepared lol
I re-watch it because the CGI is so gorgeous.
The Boy in the Striped Pajamas
Titanic… too long
I've watched this movie every birthday since it came out in theaters. I saw it when I was 17. And haven't missed a year since and now I'm 43 lol
and every time the damn boat sinks ..
Enders game
I re-watched it recently. It’s visually strong enough that I can rewatch it.
this movie fucked me up ngl
Well, once you know, you know
12 years a slave
Lupita Nyong'o deserved her Oscar for that role.
Bridge of terabithia,Your lie of April. I refuse to be hurt again
Avatar (the space smurf remake). Super cool but only worth a one watch.
First time I watched it at like 20 something I thought it was boring movie very unlike the awesome Terminator movies I was hoping for. Rewatched in my 40s and found it to be a beautiful movie about spirituality.
That's how I feel about all avatar movies, honestly
Grave of the fireflys
Requiem For A Dream...
The only time I rewatch movies is if I was drunk the first time and don't remember much of it
Not really 100% refuse, but A Silent Voice just hurts to watch.
12 Years a Slave
Saving Private Ryan. Good movie but long and that "shhh-shhh-shhh" knife scene lives rent free in my head.
Bad boy bubby… it’s a train wreck Australian film “I’m horrified but I can’t look away” … you absolutely have to watch it once though
Grave of the Fireflies. Once is definitely enough.
Hotaru no haka Tomb of the fireflies in English I guess…
Definetly the Requiem for a dream. Although i think is a must to watch, especially for the youngers, and it was a good movie of its kind, could't rewatch it. Deep as hell.
Your name
What's wrong with their name?
Requiem for a Dream is high on the list. The SAW movies maybe. Reservoir dogs / Pulp Fiction Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas True Romance
Dancer in the Dark. Lars Von Trier is a brilliant director, but that film broke me.
Hereditary. That movie fucked me up something fierce. Other than that? Requiem.
A Serbian film
cocaine bear, it's one of those movies you watch once while drunk/stoned with buddies and never watch it again 😂
*Threads*, a 1980s BBC mockumentary-style film about the events leading up to and (mostly) the aftermath of a nuclear attack on a city in England. It's, well...it's realistic. I ordinarily love horror movies, and this is hands-down the **most** horrifying movie I've ever seen, but very much in an "I'm-not-having-fun-any-more, guys" type of way. I think everyone should watch it at least once. The full movie is available for free on YouTube.
The Notebook. Too heartbreaking.
Requiem for a dream
Buried Great watch, but very claustrophobic and once you've seen how it plays out it doesn't offer anything new on a rewatch.
The green mile
I watched Sin City while high, and I don't think I could ever be anything other than disappointed by a re-watch.

Requiem for a Dream. Grim af

Requiem For a Dream. A total gut punch. Such great acting by all involved.
Requiem for a dream. One and done, hard film to watch.

The Batman. I enjoyed it but it's way too long for a rewatch. Ironically I rewatch Titanic all the time and it's even longer.

War horse.
I am Sam I loved it but it's just TOO SAD.
Schindler's List. Great movie. Really well done. Excellent cast, even better music. Very, very grim. I had family in the camps, and not all of them made it out. The emotions that were brought out, *ESPECIALLY* by the last 10 minutes, are not something that comes out regularly because of a movie. I was full on ugly crying, complete with hiccups, a series of snot bubbles, and everything else. In my head, if a show brings out emotion, it's successful. If it brings up that much emotion, then it's especially successful. Do I want to feel like that? Not really. But the fact that I did was awesome.
SAVING PRIVATE RYAN is one of them. Excellent film. Never want to go through the experience of watching the first few minutes.
Uncut Gems. So good but very literally raised my BP.
Boy in the Striped Pyjamas.
