19 Movies That Are Absolute Tear-Jerkers

Everyone and their mother needs a good cry every once in awhile. It's a good way to release stress. Not everyone enjoys a movie that will leave them in tears, but there's something comforting about a good, hard, cathartic cry. Maybe watching a sad film isn't your idea of escapism. But, you can temporarily forget about whatever is making you sad by immersing yourself in someone else's sad story. Or maybe you'd rather have another reason to cry it out. Don't worry, there are happy endings in some of these plot lines—just tread carefully along the water before the real waterworks start. Check out this movie list for a hearty cry, a wholesome cry, a deep cry, a comedy cry or just a regular old cry.
