- Thread starter Con-Amalgamate
- Start date
God this was so fucking incredible. Everyone I was watching with was dead silent. Unbelievable performance
Came to say these
She was a great little actor
literally came in to say these two lol.
Fuck those scenes were hard to watch.
oh sorry, its DIE-HARDMAN from death stranding
towards the end of the game, has a full monologue while breaking down
Thanks
I really didn't like that game, it's sat on my shelf... Maybe I'll give it another go sometime.
Great point.
Actually, come to think of it, a bunch of Shyamalan movies have some good ones:
Bruce Willis telling Haley Joel he can't help him anymore in Sixth Sense, Mel Gibson talking to Ray Reddy in Signs, Abigail Breslin at the dinner table in Signs, Bryce Dallas explaining why she has to go to the town in The Village, Paul Giamatti in Lady in the Water.
There's Naomi Watts in this Mulholland Drive scene (you can go back a bit to see the behind the scenes raw take):

And there's no overt crying here, but this bravura sequence from Stardust Memories where Charlotte Rampling tries to bare her soul:

Haven't seen the movie since it first came out, how does this play into her scene at the end?
The fact that he didn't win that game award is a crimenot a movie or tv show but
I can't find a clip of it but in the Robin Williams Popeye movie, there's a scene that really hit me as a kid, with Cole Oyl (Olive Oyl's father) played by MacIntyre Dixon. This guy:
After Olive basically blows off Bluto's marriage proposal by showing up with Popeye and carrying Sweet Pea, Bluto uses his sway to have everything in the Oyl's household stripped and repossessed. Throughout it all Cole is buried in a newspaper as he's been comically seen throughout the movie. Olive's mother is in hysterics and screams at him, "WOULD YOU STOP READING?!" and snatches the newspaper away to reveal he's been sitting there crying the whole time and she comforts him.

not a movie or tv show but
What a great moment that was. So much emotion in that monologue.
The boy crying scene in The Road, ever since i heard this

I've seen this kind of crying in real life, and she absolutely nailed it. So devastating.
Dr cox in a few of episodes of Scrubs. He has this ability to have a few tears but have so much emotion and look of defeat
"so even though you've broken my heart yet again, I wanted to say....In another life, I would have really liked just doing laundry and taxes with you."
phew.
Didnt know if this counted since it is not a movie, but I immediately thought of this scene.
Fuuuuck I hope we see more of this from Tom Cruise once he's too old to do the action stuff anymore.
Could certainly be recent bias (watched it last night), but Nicholas Cage in Pig. It creates empathy-you see your fellow man in pain like that, and you realize it doesn't matter what caused it (or if you valued his loss as much as he did, you're dragged to the depths with him).
I can't believe this wasn't the very first thing I thought of, came on cable tonight and it's one of the best most authentic scenes of all time

The confession scene in The Blair Witch Project is my favorite piece of acting in any movie ever. And it's the crying scene to end all crying scene, so I'll pick that one!
Another amazing answer. What a movie
