Well, you'd also be depressed if you watch it at least 10 times in one week, and not ending it properly...

Till now i don't know the ending...

Anyone ever seen "Who Will Love My Children?" I watched this about 20 years ago and still can't forget how depressing it is!

My mum had that movie and my three nieces loved it - watched it about 17 million times, called it "the sad movie". About a year later their own dad was killed in a car accident and "the sad movie" actually helped me explain things to them in a way they would understand because they could relate to the kids in the movie.
