Aside from the movie itself as a whole, I'm curious to know what endings truly hit the emotional button for individuals here in the sub. (My eyes aren't tearing up I just have allergies)
I've been in love with movies since I was a kid and there are so many memorable cinematic experiences out there. Whether action packed, sci-fi, horror, dramatic or otherwise, movies can reach art form to me when they are relatable and I find some personal connection with them. So fellow movie buffs, what ends to which movies hit you the hardest? No wrong answers of course, this is all subjective!
My list is as follows in no particular order. (Spoilers)
1. Braveheart- "FREEEEEEDOM!"
2. Gladiator- "Father to a murdered son, Husband to a murdered wife, And I will have my vengeance... in this life or the next." Along with an astounding soundtrack what more can I say.
3. The Sixth Sense- The twist ending was out of this world when I first saw it in theaters but was also heart wrenching when Bruce Willis's character makes peace with his death as well as saying his farewells to his sleeping wife.
4. Terminator 2- Saw this for the first time at a hotel back in 93. Easily one of my all time favorite movie memories. More impactful than sad but nonetheless Arnie melting himself to the T2 theme. Whew
5. No Time to Die- Daniel Craig's Bond has mastered his way through nearly every situation he's been in but when he's inches away from peace with his family, his luck runs out. Couldn't Q at least make him a bubble suit? Sigh.
6. Titanic- Jack is a cool cat who sweeps a helpless Rose off her feet from the overly controlling and mundane existence with her rich fiance and mother. From Jack and Rose's fight for survival as well as the 2,240 other passengers as Titanic sinks, this movie tugs at the heart.
7. Forrest Gump- A masterpiece full of loss, joy, love, humor, and perseverance from a young man who seems slower than others but is probably sharper than a needle point.
Feel free add the same movies I've added if they've impacted you or different movies that hit you harder. I'd love to see some lists of movies I haven't thought of or perhaps haven't even seen.
