Wanna wallow in something sad, but also heartwarming? Turns out, there are a lot of sad movies on Disney+ that will help you let it out and gain some perspective on what’s bothering you IRL. Sad movies can be comfort movies if they believe in themselves. But with these Disney+ movies it’s, like, in a gentle way instead of a super-serious depressing Oscar-bait kind of way.
Disney+ has some hidden gem drama films that will make you shed a tear, sure, but also a lot of nostalgia. What’s more likely to trigger our heartstrings than that?

Howard
This Disney+ documentary about Howard Ashman, the lyricist behind Beauty and the Beast, The Little Mermaid, and some of Aladdin, is one of the saddest films on the whole streaming service. Ashman died from complications due to HIV/AIDS when he was only 40 years old, but his legacy still lives on thanks to his films.
Tucked behind a charming drama about the making of Mary Poppins is the devasting tale of a young P.L. Travers and her relationship with her doomed father, played by Colin Farrell.
The silver lining is that if you can make it past the devastating opening sequence, the rest of the movie’s not that sad. But who in their right mind can make it past that??
Millennials everywhere still shed a tear as they watched Andy grow up. Toy Story 3 forced us to realize that we too may have outgrown our toys. And Disney took things to the next level when they previously announced that it would be the last film in the series…until they took it back and released Toy Story 4.
Spoiler alert, but if you’re paying attention to the Star Wars timeline you know that the Rogue One mission is not going to end well. It’s one of the best Star Wars movies, in my opinion anyway, because it really goes there and isn’t afraid to tell a tragic story.
This inspirational story about kids in a small town learning how to work as a team and be anti-racist has a bummer ending. There are so many fun moments, and the cast is stacked with future stars, but at what cost?!
Again, don’t let the music make you forget that this is a tragedy. A lot of people die! You’re jamming one second and sobbing the next especially thanks to Philippa Soo’s performance in that scene! You know the one…
This may be one of the most obscure movies on Disney+. What is it even doing here? Was someone in the office, like, a fan? Did they sneak in late at night and update it? Anyway, it looks super dramatic and super sad.
This is a short film… how sad could it be? REAL SAD! Why they made a short based on the most depressing fairy tale of all time is beyond me. They’re wild for this. Actually, maybe don’t watch this one with kids. It’s too upsetting.
