      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.

                        'The Upside of Anger' came to mind when I watched this movie. Although 'Upside' is slighty better than 'August'.
                        You might also wanna check it out 'Dolores Claiborne'.

                          The movie "Eulogy" is a great dark comedy about a dysfunctional family gathering. I also second the suggestions of "Home for the Holidays" and "The Upside of Anger."
