This week on the InSession Film Podcast, we reviewed the awesome 12 Years A Slave, which literally left me speechless after seeing the film. It was incredibly gripping with some pretty raw and heartbreaking moments. So to bounce off of that for the show this week, we discussed our Top 3 Heartbreaking Scenes in film.
When you listen to the show, you’ll hear how I have a very personal connection with my number one. Finding a clip for the show was the hardest thing I’ve had to do since we started InSession Film. Yes, I know I’m an emotional guy, so it wasn’t very hard. While hard though, it was still a great Top 3 to do.

The end of The Thin Red Line with Sean Penn and Pretty much all of 21 Grams for me…
The Thin Red Line is also a great choice. I haven’t seen 21 Grams yet so I may need to get familiar with that one. Thanks for the comment!
Oh my God. Up had me crying within the first 10 minutes. Surprising and a record-breaker in my book. Can’t handle.
Yeah it’s a great one for sure. I was the same way, it was too good to not put on this list.
