There are American, British, German, Danish and Hungarian films on the list. Warning, a very painful and, above all, spoiler-filled article follow!
The silence of death
There is nothing more depressing in the world than this spaghetti western. Not only does the main character (Jean-Louis Trintignant) die, but the Evil One (Klaus Kinski) wins, taking everything, looting everything, killing everything. The silence of death is guaranteed to take away our zest for life, and the fact that the film was directed by the same Sergio Corbucci who directed And Again We Are Furious with Terence Hill and Bud Spencer doesn’t even bring a faint smile to our faces.
Seventh
David Fincher’s chilling masterpiece probably needs no introduction. At the end of the film, the innocent angel wife (Gwyneth Paltrow) is brutally murdered, the hot-tempered but golden-hearted detective (Brad Pitt) is sent to a psychiatric hospital, and the viewer is left wondering how this exceptionally evil ending could have passed the censorship of Hollywood’s revenue-seekers. And even the last, slightly soothing, quote from Hemingway by Morgan Freeman doesn’t help the shock.
Desire and penance
One false accusation, and everyone’s life is ruined. In this film, not only is love not consummated, but the lovers also die separately and in unworthy circumstances. So we can’t console ourselves with the fact that at least one last kiss got through, as in Romeo and Juliet or Titanic.
Midnight cowboy
A naive Texas boy, Joe (Jon Voight), and a hapless big-city cripple (Dustin Hoffman) try to make it in New York City, but such a pairing never works out well in a realistic story. The cripple dies of pneumonia, and Joe is – probably – turned into a murderer by circumstances.
