This one resonated with me, a depiction of a 8w7.

I thought it was called 'Surviving Summer', but apparently it's called 'According to Greta'

http://putlocker.is/watch-according-to-greta-online-free-putlocker.html

Synopsis: After her mother, Karen (Melissa Leo) gets married for the third time, 17-year-old Greta (Hillary Duff), who had witnessed her father kill himself, withdraws within herself, and turns rebellious. In lieu of boot camp she is sent to live with her maternal grandparents, Katherine (Ellen Burstyn) and Joseph (Michael Murphy) where she makes it known that she is determined to kill herself. She then falls for a cook, Julie (Evan Ross) at the local restaurant, much to the chagrin of her grandparents - especially when they find out he had been interned in a juvenile correctional facility. Faced with all-round opposition and unhappy with her life Greta plans her suicide during a boating trip - a plan that will not only expose closeted skeletons, but also shatter and change everyone's lives forever.

I'm going to watch it again.

If you like Clint Eastwood, have you seen "Bridges of Madison County"? Meryl Streep is also in it and she is awesome as always.

If you want a tear-jerker novel, you should definitely check out "Flowers for Algernon" by Daniel Keyes, in case you haven't read it already. It is an amazing novel that I got hooked on almost from the first paragraph, and I can almost guarantee that you will gush tears nearly the entire way through, regardless of whether you are in public or not.

Hey, thank you for appreciating my suggestions, and I hope you enjoy them. Even if they aren't the crying festivals that you dream of, I think you will still get something out of them.

I recommend watching the series finale of The Office. I lost it when Michael appeared out of nowhere and said "that's what she said."

If you like anime, I recommend "Grave of the Fireflies." Warning, though; it's pretty gut-wrenching.
Young adult - see "Bridge to Terabithia"
Young fantasy (if you don't mind shaky-cam) - Beasts of the Southern Wild
Based on historical events - either Sometimes in April (https://vimeo.com/25283728) or Hotel Rwanda
Biography - The Normal Heart
Animal movie - Hachi: A Dog's Tale
Lesser known/seen - 7 Pounds
War themes - The Boy in the Striped Pajamas or Saving Private Ryan
