What are some very beautiful and emotional movies? (Preferrably those about very grandiose or profound themes)
-
A Silent Voice. I watched it while I was going through a rough time, and the visual metaphor used to portray the main character's isolation hit me so hard.
(not trying to sound like a hipster but) I read the manga a fair while before the movie came out and the relationship with the girl's mom is explored more deeply. God. It hits so hard.

I want to watch a movie that will make me cry.

Atonement
And agree on Big Fish, and Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind.

Grave of fireflies - film that you watch only once as it's too sad to watch the second time.

Pretty sure this is not the crying OP is looking for
Let OP decide. Maybe they put the real life that feels tragic in perspective, and it could help with depression.

Apollo 11 was quite nicely made.
It's basically a documentary made using remastered original footage along with beautiful soundscape.

If you have time for a game try Clair Obscur: Expedition 33.

Not a movie but rather a season, Your Lie in April. It's around a 7 hour series so sorta super deluxe extended edition movie adjacent if you're up for that. Fireflies and Silent Voice have already been mentioned, this is the honorary third place in my opinion.

Saving Mr. Banks.
-
EEAAO is truly a masterpiece and I do not say that shit lightly. For all it's multiverse goofiness there really is a solid layer depicting the struggle of women, mother, and girls becoming women. There's also cultural bits obviously as well, and marriage. My god the dad breaks my heart every time. Just good from beginning to end.
The dad is just such a good person.
The googly eyes, the silliness, he just wanted to make his family smile.

I cried with The Mitchells Vs. The Machines.
Think I teared up at another film recently, but can't recall what it was. Sorry. That's one I watched I know got me weeping, though. I'll cry over anything intergenerational these days.

Two movies that usually appear on lists like this, but I don't see them: The Fountain, and The Fall.
-
Walk in the Clouds
What Dreams May Come
The ending of Sixth Sense
Big Fish
Came here to say what dreams may come, Beautiful but unbelievably sad movie that you will not want to rewatch.

The Wild Robot is well worth a watch. It looks like a kids movie, but I think the themes work just as well if not better for adults.

Not a movie but a tv show: "one day" on Netflix, it may seem shallow in the beginning, but then it will tear you apart.
