This is why I can't bring myself to watch this movie. I know I wouldn't be able to take it.

It's also very funny - something that is not really mentioned about the movie. I always laugh when I see it.

And with a very unique tone/style/voice whatever you want to call it. It just stood out in so many ways.

it's not a horrific, sad cry. More a bittersweet cry. You should watch it!

Nomadland. After thinking I shouldn’t focus so much on making money and material things, after watching that I felt the need to work harder and focus even more on money.

Long before I realized how impacted I was by addiction issues in my family, I found myself sobbing through the following movies in the theater and not really being able to explain why:

28 Days
Rachel Getting Married

The first one is not even a good movie but I started crying about 5 minutes in and never stopped.

I'm the PP who mentioned - yes it is funny!! I forget sometimes about the humor as it's context humor. The cinematography is to die for though isn't it?!

I’ve got to agree that Aftersun hits hard. The imagery and the symbolism. The preciousness of a raising a child and the idea of depression as a parent. I just really felt this movie.
