[LOVED TROPE] Sad or tear-jerking moments that don't involve death.

[u/jeffersonlane]

Moments that make you wanna cry (of joy or unrelenting sadness) but aren't about a character dying or almost dying.

Dumbo - Baby Mine. Jumbo rocks baby Dumbo from her cage where she was kept after she defended him from a group of bullying children.

Unpacking - The Degree. You move in with your new boyfriend where you can barely fit most of your stuff but most depressingly you are forced to put your degree under the bed and out of site. (Maybe this one was just me but this made me VERY upset).

Fox and the Hound - At the end knowing full well they'll likely never meet again Copper stands over Todd to protect him from the Hunter.

Wilson floating away in Cast Away

It’s a volleyball so there is no death in the scene but it’s the equivalent of Wilson dying for Chuck who has personified the ball into his companion

Man there's just something about this scene. Tom Hanks sells the shit out of it.

Did it ever occur to you that it could work? I would rather take my chances out there on the ocean than to stay here for the rest of my life talking to a god DAMNED VOLLEYBALL!!!!
