movies (for when you want to cry) pt2!
link to pt 1 miracle in cell no 7 (live action, kdrama) - this movie made me cry so much i couldn't bring myself watch it again. the story of a little girl and her father, a man with an intellectual disability, who was falsely imprisoned and sentenced to death. 20th century girl (live action kmovie 2022)
i watched the spoilers and prepared myself for it yet its still so crushing? na bora is a highschool girl collecting information her best friends crush hyunjin (her bestfriend being away for surgery) while doing so, she encounters someone who she falls in love with along the way. hotarubi no mori e (anime 2011) - the shortest film on this list with a runtime of only 45 mins hotaru is a small child when she first meets gin, a spirit who seems not to age like humans do. after her first encounter with him one holiday while staying over at a relatives. the book thief (war/drama, 2013) Liesel is a young girl, living with her foster parents during the war. She steals books from the mayors house and bonds with a boy named Rudy. i hope you all liked this post! until next time! Amimi
movies (for when you want to cry)
believe it or not, my blog was supposed to be all about movies and film (thus the name filminah, innovative i know) i don't know if i enjoy torturing myself or what but here are some movies that made me cry. when marnie was there (anime 2014) - follows teen anna sasaki through a journey of self exploration that takes place due to a mysterious girl she meets named marnie. now, this is definitely not the best ghibli film ever, a little awkward at times especially in the dub but yonebayashi hiromasa does not know how to make a bad movie. the twist was kinda expected but it's ghibli and it's so damn charming you can't help but get attached to anna and marnie and feel everything the way they do. i want to eat your pancreas (anime 2018) - the title is weird, i know. an introverted boy, haruki finds out the secret of his very popular, bubbly polar-opposite-of-him classmate named sakura. she is affected with a severe pancreatic disease. the way they build the connection between the main two characters is so so good to watch, fulfilling what you know will happen in the most unexpected way and showing the aftermath of the movies major events. a silent voice (anime 2016)- this was the first movie i ever found sad enough to make me cry actual tears. ishida shoyo bullied a nishimiya shouko in middle school. shouko is deaf. now a highschooler, after being unable to commit s**c*d* he finds himself becoming friends with shouko, helping her get better and maybe himself along the way. imo this film is one of the best representations of a lead with struggling mental health and they show that incredibly well in both visuals and dialogue, kyoto animation always impresses with their work and the sound work is impeccably done with the way they establish an atmosphere or put you in a characters shoes, embodying them. link to pt 2 (to be added)
