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

    (Because I need those endorphins to help me with depression. I feel better after a good session of crying. Sorry if this is weird...)

        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.

                  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.

                                  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.

                                        Not a movie but 18 episodes, Arcane is full of massive, massive feels.

                                        Hits multiple times in different ways. If you want the full gamut of emotional.

                                          haven't watched a lot of shows that aren't anime so here are my recs:

                                          1. Your name (movie, its really really good)
                                          2. A silent voice (movie, same as your name)
                                          3. Your lie in april (tv series, apparently really good at making you cry but haven't watched it)
                                          4. Anohana: The flower we saw that day (tv series, same as your lie in april)

                                          your name and a silent voice have really good animation btw

                                          i almost cried during weathering with you which is a movie in the same universe as your name but it isn't as emotional as your name ig
