Ok here it goes, a short list of some my favorite films that made me emotional.
The Ballad of Narayama - The end part in which the son carries his mother up to mountain Narayama, where she will die according to the village
tradition.
The Tokyo Story - The end conversation between the father and the daughter in law, pure Japanese wisdom.
Three Seasons - This entire masterwork is full of touching scenes. The scene on the picture is when Harvey by accident recognizes his daughter
he had been seeking for weeks in Vietnam. He had never seen her in real. His soul is torn apart when he realizes that she is an escort girl. Their
eyes meet and the tears fill his eyes. What an extraordinary actor he is.
This is the end scene. With haunting music and beautiful shots, portraying this unique culture.
Kikujiro No Natsu - The end when the man and the boy split up.
Ikiru - When the main character sings the sad song in the club. The second part after he died. His colleges are all together during his
memorial, they get drunk and start talking. They realize and admit what a hero he was. Deeply ashamed of their own cowardice they devote themselves to
become just like him, to live like him, a full human being. A short scene after that shows that they could not change, they remained the cowards they
had always been, The final scene is the most beautiful. A snowy night, the protagonist, an old man is sitting in the swings in the park he build,
singing that haunting song. You know that he died there, alone, happy and in peace.
Midnight Cowboy - The end when Razzo dies in the bus.(already feeling it)
The Straight Story - Many scenes. Especially the ones where Calvin Straight is driving in his lawn mower down the high way. Also his way of
speech, his wisdom and loving attitude deeply moved me.
The Deer Hunter - Many scenes.
