Oh, yeah. There are a few movies that I can't watch anymore, cause they were my favorite movies to watch when I was all jacked up on drugs, such as Ciao! Manhattan and Spun. I just simply cannot watch them now, or I'll have an anxiety attack and feel physically ill.

Ditto.

Oh, and I'm sorry about the anxiety attacks thing *gives cookie*.

I also find that watching films I was particularly attached to at a certain period, etc may make feel worse, if said period is connected to something particularly crappy, i.e. friends I've had issues with, etc..

That makes me feel crazy. It was on in the background when i was off my face on coke and i kinda felt like i was in it. Weird shit.
I used to really like it before that.

but YES! Requiem for dream fucked me up the most and I wasnt even on anything.

edit.
THE HILLS HAVE EYES! (remake)
That film really upset me.

Uh huh....when I was taking lots of diet pills, the movie just cracked me up (no pun) in the most fatalistic sort of way. And that scene at the end where they are in the car, and Britney Murphy is saying, "I'm gonna be the best mom! I'm gonna be the best mom in the whole world!" was a perfect reflection of my state of mind at that point. It wasn't until I saw it recently that I realized how fucked up and sickly the movie is. Or is it just me?

Oh, by the way...I took your advice and saw Transamerica finally. I really liked it, but I ESPECIALLY liked Kevin Zeder. Miaow!

haha. Yeah, I nearly rented "It's a boy/girl thing" just because he's in it. Plus I love Samaire Armstong.

YES
That film affected me for a long time after.
I even used to check behind me in the car when I was driving in the dark because I thought someone was there.

The House of Sand and Fog

This may make little sense but ET

hysterical blindness


then ending brings tears especially. im getting emotional just thinking about it deb!

I LOVE Hysterical Blindness! The part where Deb makes an ass out of herself at the bar always gets to me.

"WHAT'S WRONG WITH ME?!"

that movie was amazing. i was kind of obsessed with it for a while, taped it and such. uma was amazing in it. but especially gena rowlands. how brilliant is she? when the guy she was seeing umm... argh and the we see her serving in the restaurant. arghh heartbreaking.

oh and the film, wolf creek, pissed me off. i was like.. fuck! my favorite characters were chopped off. dammit.

life is beautiful...


SOOO heartbreaking.
oh my god.. i might cry a little right now, just thinking about it.

I was going to say this movie, but I changed my mind. I can't even watch it anymore

wilbur wants to kill himself. my bf told me it was 'sweet and funny' but i bawled for hours. maybe the title should have given it away.

ARGH what is that film called where a young girl living in a caravan with her husband and kids finds out shes got cancer? i'm sure its got mark ruffalo in it. and she goes on a quest to do all these things that she must do before she dies. fricken heart breaking.

homeward bound.

and secretary. again everyone told me this film was beautiful but watching a girl get scaryobsessive over a man made me have a near breakdown. haha no one expected that. a few people distanced themselves from me that night.

Whats the film where a girl is pregnant and gets left at a shopping mall and lives and has the baby there?

Film's tagline gets to me every time.

"In the 80's they said love was a battlefield...they were right."

Requiem hit me hard the first time I saw it for some reason. Another movie that killed me was "Old Yeller" as well as "Leaving Las Vegas". Brilliant movie, but yeah...ouch. And of course, the shitiest feel-bad movie of all time for me is: "Shindler's List". Having my soul ripped apart just wasn't very entertaining.

I must say, I have the feeling that I probably couldn't handle that new one with Molly Shannon though either. (The one about her dealing with life after her dog suddenly dies). My dogs' deaths happened about a year ago and I'm still not over it. Another one of those things where I don't think that would be entertainment for me.
