Let's face it: sometimes you just need a good cry. But not everyone can turn on the waterworks at will. Many people need something to get the tears flowing, like a good tearjerker of a movie. Thankfully, there are loads of sad movies on Netflix in September, and any one of them will allow you to let loose all the emotions you have bottled up inside until you have no tears left to cry out.

Netflix's collection of sad movies this September is pretty unbelievable in that it contains a number of films that are often cited as being among the saddest ever made. I'm talking films with devastating endings that will leave you shaken to your core; movies with twists out of left field that will have you reeling; films that deal with tragic issues like the Holocaust, drug abuse, and poverty. And of course there are deaths. Deaths of lovers, deaths of parents, deaths of siblings, deaths of friends... so many deaths. There's even the dreaded death of a beloved animal — without question the surest way to make someone cry while watching a movie. So grab a box of tissues and maybe some chocolate, because these are the saddest movies Netflix has to offer at the moment.
