There was just something about most movies from the 2000s that inspired tears.
All they had to do was focus on a wicked step-mother, injustice of any kind and we would find ourselves curling up like a ball with tissue paper by your side.
It's Thursday and Pulse Movies has created a poll for Pulse readers to choose a movie from the 00s that made them cry the most.
1. "Cry for Help"
Who goes through a movie about the trials and ordeal of an orphaned girl without grabbing a tissue?
2. "Allegation"
When you realize how realistic and unjust the death of an innocent character is, the tears will inevitably escape.
3. "Onome"
If the story of a poor girl getting raped, pregnant, and rejected by the father of the child doesn't get you curling and releasing the tears, we don't know what will.
4. "Hour of Grace"
The producers of this movie made sure the tears didn't stop until the end.
Apart from the fact that Hilda Dokubo's tears inspire tears, the movie remains one of the most heart-wrenching tragic movies ever.
5. "Died Wretched"
"Died wretched, buried in 3.2million naira casket." - When a logline is a tear-jearker, you already know what to expect from the movie.
Which of these many movies had you reaching for the tissues?
