If they are highly emotional, violent, vulgar, scary or stressful to watch in any way, I have to turn them off. I develop severe anxiety and my pulse and blood pressure surges. These movies go deep into your spirit and affect your subconscious mind, and this will trigger depression, anxiety, fear and sleepless nights. Be very careful what you put into your spirit! Yes, Thais are good at making very funny movies and very sad movies. They don't seem to make much in between other than ghost movies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A British one called <Breaking the waves>. Great movie !! Actually, the Writer and director was Lars von Trier, a Dane, and he wanted to make it in several different European countries before settling on Scotland. It won lots of awards, and yes the ending was very sad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But there was this bad monster (or was it a robot?) which everybody thought would be dead. And then the last scene of the movie shows that it moves again. I am sure someone here will remember that one. Could be The Iron Giant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rcuthbert Posted May 10, 2021 Share Posted May 10, 2021 "Do You Wear An Apron When You Do The Dishes" is quite popular with many TV members; however, Arnold's death scene in Terminator 2 is a real tear jerker.

bobandyson Posted May 10, 2021 Share Posted May 10, 2021 On Netflix. The ending of this one blew my socks off. An ending that slowly builds up to a jaw-dropping climax from the final 30 minutes. Probably the best thriller I've ever seen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Odysseus123 Posted May 10, 2021 Share Posted May 10, 2021 'Life Is Beautiful'(Italy,1997) 'As it is in Heaven'(Sweden,2004) 'The Italian'(Russia,2005) Tho' the last movie has a purportedly happy ending...the selling of orphans in Russia is a very sombre story indeed.

For me that was very powerful, also that part near the end with Don Cheatles ‘movie brother’. That movie gave so many examples of racism from almost every angle and ethnicity, frontwards and backwards. And the scene with the little girl jumping into her fathers arms to save him with her ‘invisibility cloak’, dam I almost forgot that part! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
