Is it a film about child abuse?

Nobody knows? Pretty much. The plot is that these kids have been left alone by their mother, as she goes and lives with another man. Honestly, I cried. The kid actors in it nailed it, and I even think the lead boy won an award for his role. This movie is on my christmas list actually.

Fuck, Nobody Knows is such a horribly sad movie. I got the soundtrack and it always make me cry ;(

>>5180759
Are you talking "Grave of Fireflies" sad or worse than that?

I've been tempted to watch Nobody Knows, but despite being male, I can't handle sad shit. I'll cry like a fool.

>>5180765
I never cried at Grave of the Fireflies. Maybe because I heard it dubbed.

>>5180777
Hey, thanks for the spoiler.

>>5180765
I haven't seen that movie, so I'm not exactly sure. It just depends on what gets to you. My friend didn't shed a tear during 'Nobody Knows', but cried a waterfall during 'The notebook'. Something about those poor kids, and the ending just.....everytime get's to me. It's the kids, I hate seeing that kind of thing happened so, it's whatever does it for you.

Oh god. When I first found out this movie was based on a true story *Lifetime anyone* I had to look it up. Still can't believe the mother regain custody of her two daughters.

How is Grave of Fireflies? Worth a watch?

>>5180798
It's worth it but it's kinda slow. I think you should watch it in its native language for the full impact.

The only other things I can recommend are awful, awful things that would be mean to put on you guys.

Speaking of which, Sonic Underground's on Netflix. It's worse than I remember it.

Who still remembers this?? THIS is what brings me to tears

Anon from >>5180765, Grave of Fireflies is pretty powerful in my opinion. There are of course points at which you want to slap some of the characters around but in stark contrast, the film's plot and ending are pretty deep, especially when you think about historical context.

Actually, I almost forgot about this movie. I watched it a long time ago with my grandparents, at some family reunion. It's pretty good, though I wasn't able to see the ending.

Damn movie made me cry as a kid.

Oh is it crappy, overrated French movie tiem? Pic related. The funny part was, the only interesting character was the Kung Fu Native American.

Was shown this in my history class when it first came out, and is actually one of my favorites to this day.

There's a certain genre of "feel bad" movies that Japanese directors are particularly good at.

Oh some girl is walking down the street?
She almost gets hit by a charming guy on a bike.
They become friends.
Then she gets cancer.
Oh wait, now his mom gets killed in a car accident.
And his dad kills himself out of grief.

/cgl/ in a nutshell. Babes, pigs, displaying yourself, etc. Other animals are weeaboos and furfags.

Babes, pigs, and displaying yourself?

This is a REALLY good movie. The acting is superb, and the story is amazing. It's a little long though (nearly 3 hours) but I highly recommend it.
It's on netflix instant watch

>>5180936
I wonder what she's eating.

I'll never stop recommending this

>>5180945

I second this movie. Watch it just last week and loved it.

>>5180952
oh, i've been planning to watch it in french!
should i expect tears? happiness? ahh, i need to get in the right mood for this masterpiece.

It's way too art house and girly in here... I can't be the only seagull that loves retarded awesome action movies.
My recommendation: HARD TARGET
This one is kind of a slow starter, but the last half of the movie is fan-freaking-tastic. John Woo's first state side film (yes, there are slow motion doves AND pidgeons) and one of Van Damme's best, if not the best, over the top action movies ever. Pic related: Wilford Brimley riding on a horse away from an explosion he just caused with a bow and arrow. Yes, that totally happens in this movie.

Gene Generation. I'm a huge Bai Ling fan, and I loved this movie after it was recommended on my Netflix. Try to count how many outfits she has. (A new one every time she leaves her apartment, walks into her apartment, or goes to kill someone.) They're all awesome. Very cool if you like the post-apocalyptic/grim future type movies.

The acting/story with the other characters can be a bit awkward at times, but its easy to overlook.

I cried so terribly at this movie. I sobbed and sobbed.
