Earlier this week, Twitter user @guiltyart asked movie lovers to share the saddest and most devastating scenes they've ever seen, and hooooo boy, the results are going to tear. you. up:
#FilmTwitter What are the most upsetting scenes that you have ever seen? Here are the four that broke my heart in two.
1. There were the obvious contenders of course: A Star Is Born, La La Land, The Fault in Our Stars, and The Breakfast Club:
@guiItyart 1. the single tear before the screen goes black. 2. the hopeless and reminiscent looks they give each other. 3. 12 year old me went through a box of kleenex for that scene. 4. the fear of growing up to be like your parents and circumstantial friendship always resonated with me.
2. As well as animated faves, like Lion King and The Land Before Time:
I'm goin to be that person https://t.co/hItdBFbfhV
3. THAT horse scene from The Neverending Story:
@guiItyart THERE IS NO WAY IM ALONE HERE
4. And these poignant moments from A Ghost Story and Papillon:
@guiItyart these hit differently
5. Since we're talking about film, Dead Poets Society inevitably came up...
@guiItyart i don’t think ill ever RECOVER FROM WHAT HAPPENED AFTER THIS. IM SOBBING RN AS I THINK ABOUT IT, i’m broken (dead poets society)
6. And so did The Color Purple:

7. We got not one, but TWO Timothée Chalamet movies by way of Beautiful Boy and Call Me By Your Name...
@guiItyart i bawled during all of these
We'll discuss Brokeback Mountain in a hot sec, but that Green Mile scene cannot be overlooked!!
8. By the time someone brought up THIS scene, I was basically melting down:
@guiItyart I’ve honestly just cried finding the gif for this. Oh my god 😭
9. And even though we are six months out from Christmas, how could you NOT feel this Emma Thompson moment in Love Actually deep in your bones, 365 days of the year?
