I want to watch a movie that will make me cry.

(Because I need those endorphins to help me with depression. I feel better after a good session of crying. Sorry if this is weird...)

Apollo 11 was quite nicely made.

It's basically a documentary made using remastered original footage along with beautiful soundscape.

This might be an outlier as far as how other people might watch or react to this movie but I rewatched Millennium Actress recently and I could not stop crying the whole movie.

It’s gives me feelings of deep desperation, chasing, longing, almost persevering.

Lots of Ghibli mentioned, Kiki’s Delivery Service is a favorite of mine. :) Not sure how much it fits ‘grandiose’ and ‘profound’, but I’m definitely a sob-fest by the end.

Oh man, how has 'The Fall' not been mentioned?!

It's one of the most visually stunning movies I've ever seen, and the story will tear your heart out.

Not a movie but 18 episodes, Arcane is full of massive, massive feels.

Hits multiple times in different ways. If you want the full gamut of emotional.

Probably going to get some hate for who's in it (Jared Letto) and some of the content (step sibling incest), but the ending of Mr. Nobody wrecked me.

If you want sometime currently in the theater, you might try The Life of Chuck. Likely to make you cry, but uplifting. Great cast.
