THE MUSIC LOVERS is like being a fly on the wall..Outradeou, intimate,ironic and funny, equally horrifying with the greatest music , camera work and design .What Glenda Jackson does here is not to be believed.Might be Ken Russell most personal masterpiece.

This is where I leave you
(2014).
I was surprised to see them releasing this movie in the same year as AOC; it has similar themes of bereavement and the mourning bringing a family together to implode in a similar fashion. -

My favorite tear-jerkers are:
Steel Magnolias
(the one with Julia Roberts and Sally Fields)
Always
The Color Purple
Phenomenon
Stepmom
Now Is Good
Once Around
Message in A Bottle
(this one will leave you looking for a razor blade & a good vein)
AI
(Artificial Intelligence)
Return to Me
Mother and Child
(VERY underratedcheck it out)
Phantom of the Opera
(Gerard Butler & Emmy Rossum)
I only watch these when I'm in the need of a very cathartic of afternoon of sobbing in the shower.
I haven't decided whether or not to watch "If I Stay." Even the preview made me cry, so I don't think I will.
Great list, allI will be giving a lot of these a shot!!
If I had a dollar for every time I got distractedOh, look!! A puppy!! -

I found it very similar to John Cassavete's A Woman Under he Influence (1974) it almost feels like Cassavetes directed himself..
It has the same kind of thick family drama with the same kind of acting. -

Cat on a Hot Tin Roof, without a doubt.
Dysfunctional family with secrets, intense performances, superb acting and dialogue. They both take place in mostly one setting, which I love because it makes it claustrophobic and ramps up the tension.
I think there is a lot of Tennessee Williams in August: Osage Country. I wasn't surprised to learn that the playwright was inspired by his works. -

^^I second this. A 'must see', but not a lot of dark humor.

I had a feeling somebody would ask this. I thought up a list this morning. Some of these may not have gotten many imdb stars, or have been generally critically acclaimed.
Long Days Journey Into Night
Lost in Yonkers
Rachel Getting Married
Margot at the Wedding
A Woman Under the Influence
Georgia
Hud
The Effect of Gamma Rays on Man-in-the-Moon Marigolds
The Subject Was Roses
Pretty much anything based on a Tennessee Williams play.
