For a movie, there are two: Big Fish: when the father is dying and the big scene where the son is racing to get him to the river, and when he gets him to the river, all his friends are there to say goodbye. Kills me. That, and the movie Angus. After Angus' grandfather dies, and they show the shot of Angus walking up to his Grandfather's friend in the park, where the Grandfather and the friend used to play chess all the time. Angus just walks up to the board and lays the King down on the board and walks away. There is this great Peter Gabriel song playing in the background as he does it. At the time, it was probably one of the sadest things I had seen in a movie.
If we are talking about TV, and real-life: 9/11 Not only did I witness the buildings get hit and collapse from across the river in NJ (I work on the riverfront) but then when I got home, I could't stop watching the T.V. coverage. I was glued to the T.V. for like three days straight. My wife would yell at me and get mad that I was watching it, but I just couldn't stop. I just couldn't get past what I had just seen not more than a few football fields away.

You said on a movie or on TV...
If it is on tv, I have to say the saddest thing I ever saw were the people jumping off of the roofs on 9/11 because they were burning to death and couldn't stand the pain and agony of their deaths and knew that they wouldn't be rescued.
That's the saddest thing I ever saw, ever.
If you're talking movies,
gotta say the saddest one was Sally Field's cemetary speech about her dead daughter, Shelby, in Steel Magnolias.

For TV- 9/11. I saw this documentary on HBO and I cried through the entire thing. Its so sad.
Movie- I hate to say it- Steel Magnolias. Only because I'm a diabetic and it brings to reality what could happen. But I hate that movie too because some of the other stuff that they show aren't true.

One of saddest and tearful moments I've seen in a movie was when in "The Sea Inside" the character of Ramon Sampedro played by Javier Bardem drinks the poison to kill himself, you see him suffering the immediate painful effects of it and I could never get myself to see it completely because it's just too deep.
You are seeing the movie's hero dying and you can't do anything to prevent it. Overall it's an amazing movie that everybody should see. Plus it was based of real events.

many things, the saddest news show I saw recently involved a puppy drowned in a pillow case. It was very sad and very horrible. I hate watching the news. It's always sad.

saddest thing on tv was when I saw the second plane hit the WTC live.
In the movies, it was Schindler's List when he saw the red coat of the little girl he saw earlier in Krakow implying she had been killed.

I thought the first 30 minutes of Saving Private Ryan was heart wrenching. I can never watch the beginning of that movie again.
As for television, watching all the senseless killings in the Middle East. Whether it be in Israel, Iraq or Afghanistan.
