another banger. Little Miss Sunshine

The Hours is the first movie that comes to mind. Suicide is a central theme. Nicole Kidman fucking kills it, though there are really a lot of good performances in this movie. It won a bunch of awards for a reason.

As for movies I like that I think do a good job with despair and include suicide/suicide attempts, I would go with Gattaca and Brassed Off. The latter movie is probably a strange choice on my part, but I find it to have an excellent portrayal of the working class struggle without beating you over the head with it. Anybody who has watched their hometown die due to the death of local industry can relate. Gattaca is just a solid film I would recommend to anyone.

Little Miss Sunshine is amazing, this video does a really great job of explaining why it's so good


I am currently revisiting a Korean show called The Glory, It's about a young girl severely bullied to the brink of suicide but decides to dedicate her life to getting revenge before she goes.

Spoiler: graphic and disturbing scenes

The bullying be pretty hard to watch

ugh, the video really does such good job of showing why the movie is so great.

its definitely one of those movies that i can watch to distract myself if i need to.

Olive Kitteridge is a pretty good mini-series. Frances McDormand is excellent as a depressed woman who weighs up shooting herself near the beginning of the series, then over 4 episodes you get to see what brought her to that decision.

 

[TheShadowQueen]

Bojack Horseman Easily this is one of my favorite scenes of the show

 

[J&L383]

Also The Hours. Haunts me still. And Ghost World. Scarlett

The anime Wonder Egg Priority was pretty good, and the topic of suicide is far more prevalent than any other anime show I've watched. Although, be warned that the ending is a bit unsatisfactory. Still worth it to me.
