Tucker: Grave of the Fireflies is excellent and hands down one of the saddest films as well as one of the best animated features ever, but if you'd like to something truly, exquisitely tragic (many film critics, traditional Japanese culturati, and Japanophiles rightfully consider this to be the saddest film/story ever told), you really owe it to yourself to see Mizoguchi's Sansho The Bailiff. Unqualified masterpiece, hands down one of the five best Japanese films ever, and probably one of the ten best films ever made.

it's funny how you guys finally bring up Touched by an Angel because i always thought of Person of Interest as Touched by an Angel with machine guns.
