    An example of “you don’t need to empathize with a character to be sad when they die” that I couldn’t help but think of during this was Walter White. He became a horrible person, and barely anyone in the audience could empathize for him, yet it was still very sad to watch when he died

    I had a different experience with breaking bad. Empathize means to understand someone's feelings, Walter might have made some horrible decisions and was straight up evil towards the end but he was also well fleshed out, his motivations made sense, we could see how everything effected him, and I still found him easy to empathize with. If I dont have that kind of connection to character and the show wants me to feel sad then it better have some damn good music

    In Up when Carl notices that Ellie filled out the rest of the adventure book with their life together makes me cry, too. The contrast of Carl feeling like he failed Ellie then him finding out that Ellie didn’t feel like they failed at all is so cute and loving. More moving than sad, but still makes me cry.

    I felt like this scene was hugely overshadowed by the audience for a long time now. This scene feels incredibly emotional because the audience saw how broken and desolate Carl was after the passing of Ellie. Him being a cheerful and happy young person at the beginning of the montage only to turn into a lonely and depressed old man by the end. Throughout the movie Carl does everything to honor Ellie, like choosing to save their house over saving Kevin despite Russell's urgent pleas, because he feels that he failed Ellie on accomplishing their trip to Paradise Falls. To especially point out that Carl kept avoiding to look at the adventure book after her death at first, and be finally strong enough to open the book and realize how in Ellie's perspective, she was happy and accomplished with her life. And Ellie's message for Carl to move one and start his own adventures was what I believe started to steer him to a more happy and determined direction about saving Russell and Kevin. It's one of my favorite scenes in Pixar.

    I don't agree with henryboseley / Closer Look's interpretation that the Up segment is about injustice. I prefer to call it love and grief. His life is not a tragedy - it was a wonderful thing. Ellie was a gift to him, even if it were taken away in the end. The most important aspect of this thing was that it explained why Carl was so attached to the house and the idea of the vacation and adventure.

    Honestly, I feel like I cry hardest when a scene is sad but also has a beautiful undertone. I remember Klaus (spoilers) makes me ugly cry every time when Klaus disappears into the woods after announcing to his late wife that he’s coming. He’s not scared, he’s satisfied with the life he lived, which is something not everyone gets when it’s their time. When it shows Jesper looking for him, asking everyone they’ve met throughout the movie, I got this sad sad feeling. Klaus is happy, but he left so many people behind. The movie ends when Jesper has two children, tucking them into bed before he sets out some milk and cookies before sitting in a chair and staring at the chimney. The last thing he narrates is “I don’t know why or how, but once a year, I get to see my friend again.” As he hears someone come down the chimney Something about tragedy that is interlaced with a beautiful undertone really hits me and a lot of my friends, since you don’t always see things like death highlighted in a more positive way, allowing us to know that everything isn’t always as bleak as it seems

In the literal sense, the title "Up" is fitting because they are going up into the sky, but it could also be interpreted as Carl starting the film at an all time low, and slowly rising up, and bringing the audience with him, as he finds something new to live for.

    Oh wow what timing for you to watch that movie too! That movie is infamous for tears! Inside out was MY first movie to strongly trigger tears from me... at a late age 35, too! For me it was when Joy was stuck in the pit thinking Riley may never be happy again, especially when she said "Do you remember... when she used to stick her tongue out when she was coloring?" That was like "OK GAME OVER" for me...!

  • @staorus4047

    Inside Out was also a great movie that followed this formula of contrasts and injustice. Strangely, the scene that nearly made me cry was when the monkey island fell down. Riley lost Joy and Sadness to no fault of her own and watching the grey barren island (each island had a personal resemblance) fall down into a void of damp darkness, it was accompanied by cutscenes of happy memories of Riley being a complete goofball and having playful fun, just being a kid. It's powerful because it reflects losing a very defining part of yourself because of circumstances you cannot control. Another example was, interestingly, Minecraft: Story Mode, chapter 4. The writers made Rueben the pig such a lovable companion to the gang, and the big injustice is that Rueben essentially saved the day, the poor piglet didn't deserve to die. This shows that sometimes serving justice to everyone else comes at the cost of injustice to you, you did your part for everyone else, and you get no reward, no chance to see the bright world afterwards that you helped save. It's what made Iron Man's death very compelling as well in Avengers: Endgame, which I will mention, Tony dying did not make me cry, Tony's hologram telling Morgan, "I love you 3000" is what made me bawl my eyes out. Tony always learns from his mistakes, he never got to say goodbye to his parents, so he left a message behind so that he could say goodbye to his daughter one more time. And the cherry on top was the "Proof that Tony Stark has a heart" on a bouquet sent into the stream, a callback to the message that kept him going in the first Iron Man movie 11 years (15 years chronologically) before.

Just the idea of being stuck in space, watching as your families lives flash in a blink of an eye while you are billions of lightyears away from the Earth. Jessica Chastain's emotions in that scene really hit home too its just so heartbreaking

    Interstellar was a HUGE surprise for me. But first, one little backstory: Inside out was FIRST movie to strongly trigger tears from me... at a late age 35, too! For me it was when Joy was stuck in the pit thinking Riley may never be happy again, especially when she said "Do you remember... when she used to stick her tongue out when she was coloring?" That was like "OK GAME OVER" for me...! In fact, (as I later researched, because the effects had confused me at first!) ... some feel-good brain endorphins had come along WITH those tears, as they sometimes do even if we do not notice... but THOSE were so noticeable I was actually CRAVING MORE tearjerkers after that movie. But finding another one that "did that to me" was easier said than done. Three years later, I stumbled upon Interstellar. I knew NOTHING about it so was not expecting much... then noticed (as I was still trying to eat my salad while watching!) tears dripping down my nose during that 23 years scene!

Slowly he starts to realise he's the one that's been sending Murph messages through the bookshelves. The point that he realises that, no matter what he does, he can't make himself stay in the past. The "Don't let me leave, Murph", is what gets me every time.

You may be unfamiliar, but my textbook example due to being firmly nested in the fandom for almost a decade is that I and many others know only too well how many tears have been excreted by people due to their love of Stampy's Lovely World and their gratitude to its creator (Joseph Garrett) for changing their lives, digitally raising them, and giving them childhoods lightyears better than anyone could've ever deserved. Also, even though I've never thought of watching it and still don't plan to, the writing and visuals in that one scene from Interstellar you showed overwhelmingly screamed the deafening message "this movie is a masterpiece". I hope I will put such talent and emotion into my art someday...

    The Closer Look Those words have the opposite definitions from what you assume is what I'm saying. Empathy is deeper and tends to come from shared experience and, if not, is about putting yourself in the person's shoes to feel their pain. Sympathy is pity for another person's circumstances, in a way that doesn't require a change of your own perspective. Empathy isn't just about understanding the pain, it requires the pain to be felt. Empathy IS feeling a character's emotions. Sympathy does not require equal or proportionate pain to be felt by the audience, merely understanding. Sympathy is "Gee, that's sad." Empathy is "That makes me sad."

The attitudes towards black people at the time and place the film is set (not to mention the fact that he was convicted of a very violent crime against a white girl) made it so the guards who liked Jon Kofi couldn't openly express their grief and sadness at his unjust execution.

    Great video! I would like to argue for Up though, that the scenes that made me burst into tears was the shot where Ellie gives Carl the book, the shots where Carl looks in spots where he used to see Ellie, and the moment where he looks in the book to see "Things I'm Going To Do" because these moments were so tender to Carl. Sometimes what can make a scene sad is a moment of joy in a terrible situation, such as in "Train To Busan" when the dad turns into a zombie while smiling since in that moment he's having flashbacks of his daughter when she was a baby.

    I put my eyes on the thumbnail and started to cry. So yeah, I clicked on it. Thank you so much for this video! I often watch different movies, some are very good at writing scenes that make the audience feel, some seem like they don't know what they’re going for. Of course it's hard to put a good fictional character together, even with the bad traits that a normal human being would have, and then, make the audience feel. Put me there side to side with this person, let me hold them and say everything's gonna be fine. I have the DVD of The Green Mile till today, I watched it with my father when I was a little kid. I remember to cry a lot. The big guy was so nice, and so I was waiting for the nice big guy to be happy in the end, of course, isn’t this the normal way? And so he did not. Man, I could watch this movie thousands of times and I would cry the same way, because the connection that the writers and directors created was so strong that even just looking at the screen, seeing just some parts of their days…

This not only makes the viewer weep with empathy, but it's also a twist, which is a call back to some of his earlier work --- Well done.

    I think what also makes the Up sequence especially sad is that it's so perfectly normal. There's no fantastical tragedy that sweeps his life. It's simply a view of a plausible life, as we see 5 second snipets of Everyman's life story. There is happiness, love, joy, sadness, death, and loneliness. These are all experiences we are nearly guaranteed as humans. It serves as an overview of our own pointless fleeting mortality and that terrifies and saddens us. The rest of the movie uses this understanding of existence to make a point that it's never too late to seek adventure and find joy in life once again.

    The real "great tragedy" is the "small tragedy" and by decoding that from the movies, you can learn a lot about human behaviour and the great tragedy that is life ;-)
