Okay, if we didn’t have Boys Don’t Cry on our list, I would be seriously upset at myself.
#Best sad gay movies movie
If you start the movie when she’s topless, and then stop it before she gets onto the plane, this movie isn’t so sad – but if you’re into the whole picture, this movie will undoubtedly wreak havoc on your soul. But once you add in the powerful message behind it and the fact that this is actually based on a true story, it gets heart-wrenching and super painful. Of course, there is the appeal of seeing Angelina Jolie topless, which is one of the big draws of many Angelina Jolie movies in the first place. Oh, and not to give anything away if you haven’t seen it yet, but she also has AIDS. Still, Gia represented an important (and mostly true!) story of the supermodel, Gia Carangi, as she struggled with her career, her mental health, and her own sexuality. I’m so glad Hollywood has picked up the slack lately, but this movie is pretty much a downer anyway.įor all you Angelina Jolie fans out there, this is the one movie where we got to see her as a sexy, emotional creature… Oh wait, that’s true of a lot of her movies. Mostly, this movie is sad because back in the ‘60s, this was as close as they had to a real lesbian movie. Everything is all hunky dory for the two BFF’s ( actual gal pals, not like the “gal pals” we hear about these days)… Until a student starts spreading rumors about the two women being romantically involved, and students start withdrawing from the school. This story centers around a headmistress and a teacher at a boarding school. But, since this movie came out in the early ‘60s and features such huge icons as Audrey Hepburn and Shirley Maclane… We’ll forgive that. I’m not sure if this movie exactly counts as a lesbian film, since it centers around a rumor about sexuality, rather than actual sexuality.

If you love the movies that bring you to tears, or you consider yourself an emotional stronghold and want to prove it, we’ve found the 7 saddest lesbian movies out there – how many have you seen, and how many actually brought you to tears? (I have an aunt who calls this phenomenon “TV eyes” – it helps us keep our hard exterior appearance.) No matter how heartless I try to pretend I am, the sappy movies make me tear up every time. I have a confession to make: I am a sucker for emotional cinema.
