Do you have that movie that you cant bear to watch the second time? not because the movie plot sucks or the acting is subpar, but due to heaviness that you felt at the end of movie reel. mine is Titanic, Pearl Harbour(and significant war movies tbh), all sad pet movies(Hachi: A dog’s tales anyone?) and Taxi Driver. so what’s yours Beanies?

    I don’t have a movie, but I do have a drama I just can’t rewatch. Which is Boys over Flowers. I have tried but I don’t ever get more than 5 minutes.

    Revolutionary Road. That movie really f**c*ed me.
    Excuse my language, but really that movie gave me trauma for life. I ridded off all aluminium clothes hangers in my house. Now we only use the plastic ones. I only watched it because of Kate Winslet. I love her and always follow her career, but I regret watching Revolutionary Road, really I wished I never went to watch it. How could two people who loved each other ended up that tragic??

        It’s actually a well-made movie with superb peformance from the leading actors both Leo and Kate.
        I’m not a fan of Sam Mendes. No, I hate all of his movies. I should have known better. All of his movies make people feel worse. But I guess there’s always people who like and truly enjoy his movies

    Recently it’s Crash. There’s so much intensity,rawness and juxtaposition in the story line that tears kept streaking my face. I don’t think I can endure it again.

    Schindler’s List. There are scenes there that is still etched in my mind years after ive seen it.

    Wifar films i can rewatch if the action scenes are worthy of rewatching. I have seen Saving Private Ryan a few times. Same with HBO miniseries band of Brothers and The Pacific.

    Same with you, Titanic, Pearl Harbor, Braveheart, The English Patient and the war dramas (Schindler’s List, Saving Private Ryan and Band Brothers – I don’t watch a lot of them). For Kdramas I only have one: Reply 88. lol. Basically anything where the lead dies or don’t end up together.

    I actually have the movie Miracle in Cell No 7 saved but I’ve been delaying watching it cos I feel like I have to steel myself big time before I do: like do a ritual dance and sacrifice a chicken or something (a friend told me she cried for a week… *shudders)

    Ooh, I suddenly remembered one more: The Land Before Time. Probably my first experience of a tear-jerker. lol

        Yes, I actually just watched it. I was ugly crying for Jun Yeol! But so far I was able to handle it, maybe because his parts on the screen were quite short and they didn’t show how it happened

          i cant tho TT___TT. they focus on his shoes, his end circumstances and there is not enough coffin, god TT___TT. i thought ok, i still can handle it but then it came to the way Yoo Hae Jin sacrifice at the end and i just think ‘one is enough. no more coming back to this movie all over again’.

    K-dramas: On my top fav but I just can’t go back and rewatch. Beautiful and well made dramas but very heavy and realistic.

    Eyes of Dawn (1992)
    More Beautiful Than A Flower (2004)
    Conspiracy in the Court (2007) -tried to rewatch it but couldn’t make it halfway.
    Comrades (2010)
    Mother (2018)

    Green Mile- love the movie, but I cried so badly while watching it.
    Forest Gump- I actually don’t love this movie, but when I saw this for the first time when I was 10 I cried for 6 hours after Bubba died. 6. hours. I was devastated. I actually used to work in entertainment and we used to represent Mykelti Williamson who played Bubba and every time I would talk to him I would flashback to a particular scene and the sadness would just wash over me.
    Pursuit of Happyness- I was so emotionally spent after watching this. I bought it on DVD, but have never watched it again because I can’t take it.
    Seven Pounds- Couldn’t talk about that movie without crying. Never again.
    There’s actually a film that I watched in Bible school ( so this was elementary age-maybe 6 or 7) about the Holocaust. I don’t remember what it was called, but it was two sisters (I think) and it did a real deep dive into the horrible things they and the people around them went through in a camp. My brother had to stay with me till I fell asleep because I was so upset.

    It’s usually the extremely powerful movies that fall into this category. Schindler’s List and Three Billboards Outside Ebbing Missouri fall under the watched once, don’t really need to watch again – or at least not for another 20 years.

    DANCER IN THE DARK!! I still remember the headache I had from crying waaaay after the credits rolled…it’s a fantastic movie, Bjork is simply wonderful, but ufff…can’t do!
    Also, Grave of the Fireflies…that one’s just pure torture from beginning to end!
