7 Movies That Will Make You Cry

3. The Fault in Our Stars

Any screenplay with a cancer patient as the protagonist is a recipe for ongoing tears. And if you add a love interest who overcame the illness, get ready for a weeping ensemble. This is precisely the storyline of the latest drama by Josh Boone, who did an excellent job at directing the young Shailene Woodley, who plays Hazel (the cancer patient), and Ansel Elgort, her lover. The movie is full of sad scenes that will confront you with the fact that life is too short to live it without love and that illness can attack you at any given time.
