Up (2009) |
All I know is that it's important to let your emotions flow and movies are a great tool for that. So next time something bad happens in a movie, don't play it tough and just let it all out! One tip: make sure you don't start hyperventilating or anything, or you'll still end up being embarrassed.
I think one of the greatest examples of an emotional roller coaster is the opening sequence in Disney Pixar's 'Up'. It tells the story of Carl and Ellie and basically why Carl is so grumpy all the time (I would be grumpy too). And in those 8 minutes Disney manages to make you feel so involved with their life that at the end of it, it feels like you've known them for years. Without words they show you so much of their lives. And let's not forget it's an animation! So you're not even looking at actual people. Another aspect that's very important here is the music. It really strengthens the story and the emotional effect.
If you haven't watched it yet, you should really just watch the whole movie. But for anyone as lazy as me, just click on the youtube link right here.
So what movies made you cry? I'd love to know!
Any movie with an animal dying will do the trick for me.
