What are some very beautiful and emotional movies? (Preferrably those about very grandiose or profound themes)

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

A Monster Calls destroyed me. It doesn't take much to make me tear up, but I was sobbing for the last 15-20 minutes of the movie.

"The Green Mile" made me cry
Kidney stones are no joke

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.
There are some moments in that which are pretty brutal and I was like, "Oh wow... Not sure if my kid should be watching this yet..." but it was an incredible film.

Cloud Atlas
Happy to see someone mentioned this!

Saving Mr. Banks.
+1 for Rachel Griffiths

haven't watched a lot of shows that aren't anime so here are my recs:
- Your name (movie, its really really good)
- A silent voice (movie, same as your name)
- Your lie in april (tv series, apparently really good at making you cry but haven't watched it)
- 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

Last movie that made me cry was The Whale. I saw it in a theatre and rarely I had to refrain myself from crying in public this bad. Once I got home though I just bawled my eyes out.

First movie that popped into my head was What Dreams May Come. Robin Williams goes through heaven and hell to try and save his wife's soul. Great flick with some amazing visuals (especially for the time).

For stoic men (and maybe women, who knows?) Captain Phillips... but not till the end. It sneaks up on you.

wrote on last edited by [email protected]This might be an outlier as far as how other people might watch or react to this movie but I rewatched Millennium Actress recently and I could not stop crying the whole movie.
It’s gives me feelings of deep desperation, chasing, longing, almost persevering.
Lots of Ghibli mentioned, Kiki’s Delivery Service is a favorite of mine.
Not sure how much it fits ‘grandiose’ and ‘profound’, but I’m definitely a sob-fest by the end. -

What's going to hit will be a bit dependent on where your soft spots are.
Kids: Grave of the Fireflies or Bridge to Teribithea or My Girl or The Cure
Romantic love: The Fountain
Existential trauma: Psycho-Pass (series) or A.I.
Dogs: Marley & Me or Hachi
Loss: Up
Also:
River

Everything Everywhere All At Once
This has me all the way from to tears of sadness to tears of joy and really made me feel for the main character. It seems too whimsical to take seriously at first, but if you let it wash over you it rewards you. it can be an incredibly powerful movie and I loved the message.
Also, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. It’s a really sad breakup movie. Lots of emotion. Some of Jim Carry’s best acting.

If you want sometime currently in the theater, you might try The Life of Chuck. Likely to make you cry, but uplifting. Great cast.

Two movies that usually appear on lists like this, but I don't see them: The Fountain, and The Fall.
The Fall was fantastic. Too bad it's not available anywhere, even to buy.

Far and Away
Underrated, but terrific epic.

Kidney stones are no joke
I knew a guy who said "I've had kidney stones, and I've been shot, and the kidney stones hurt worse."
