1. La Chimera. Just watch it. Gorgeous all around.
2. It’s Only the End of the World. This movie just gets me, you know?
3. The Social Network. Biggest romantic tragedy of the 2010s. Also I’ve never done drugs but I’m pretty sure it’s close to what this movie feels like
4. Compartment No. 6. The most tender and soft movie ever. I loved it.

Ok but fr..
If you liked Worst Person in the World then watch… Weekend (2011)
If you liked Eternal Sunshine then watch… Punch Drunk Love (2002)
If you liked Anatomy of a Fall (I haven’t seen it yet) then watch… Force Majeure (2014)
If you want to be moved, a James Ivory film is always reliable in that department. My favorites are Maurice 💔❤️🩹 (hugh grants floppy hair should have won best supporting actor) and Room With a View ❤️🔥 (Beauty! Joy! Love!)
Misc. movies that made me cry:
-Harold & Maude (1971) it’s a classic!
-Moonlight (2016) I mean cmon yeah
-Handmaiden (2016) always rocks my world
-Petite Maman (2021) you’ll want to give your mom a hug after
-Short Term 12 (2013) early Brie Larson and Lakeith Stanfield… underrated imo
-A Monster Calls (2016)… it’s a ya/kids movie but made my mom and I both sobbed in the theater lol

from gut wrenching to a light tug:
mustang (2015)- made me cry twice in one watch. (disclaimer: a lot of turkish people have mixed feelings abt how this movie represents turkish culture so watch with a grain of salt but also remember misogyny does in fact exist everywhere)
la chimera (2023)- there is a looming melancholy throughout the whole film but the last 30 minutes really did a number on me
thelma & louise (1991)- gut wrenching in a beautiful female friendship kinda way
lars and the real girl (2007)- the premise looks silly on paper and tbh it is but it still made me cry in the end nonetheless (maybe i’m just a dweeb)
haru (1996)- early internet bonds. also more on the lighthearted side of things but tugs at the heart.

Your Name: most beautiful anime film I’ve ever seen. The track Katawaredoki makes me cry every single time.
500 Days of Summer: Don’t really gotta say much. A movie that has changed my outlook on relationships.
Spider-Man 2: The best Spider-Man film in my opinion. Goes from almost leaving it all to getting it all. Alfred Molina is iconic in this.
In the Mood for Love: this movie broke me. Can’t/won‘t go into detail. Watch it.

hey!
I spent numerous of my birthdays alone, so here's what worked for me
1. make a playlist of your favourite songs. literally every song you ever liked from when you were 10 to now.
2. go to your favourite place, but if you don't have one then just go to a park or a museum. I love people watching while listening to music.
3. book a spa day. that one I haven't tried but sounds fun. spa is better in solitude anyway.
4. eat your favourite food. honestly a game changer lol food is the most amazing thing we as species have created.
5. do something you enjoyed as a kid. painting, blowing bubbles, making sand castles. it makes you feel so good, like you're reconnecting with something that's been asleep deep inside you.
6. if you're not scared to talk to strangers then talk with someone you don't know. at a pub or in a line. could be fun.
happy early birthday!
