At the center of this French psychological thriller is a brutal rape scene that lasts for practically ten minutes and reveals the devastating aftermath of violence towards girls. The camera never cuts away and the audience is forced to contemplate the senseless brutality and violence.

The horror of warfare is laid bare in the ‘Apocalypse Now’. The opening scene of choppers roaring by means of the night time sky as 'The Ride of the Valkyries' plays in the background is disturbing, sensible, and incredibly realistic. The entire movie is stuffed with emotionally-charged, brutal, and heartbreaking scenes, and the climax is a realization that war isn't full of glory but full of sorrow.

It’s the type of accident that may occur at any moment, and her fierce willpower and spirit actually make this scene even more powerful.

Today’s society is so rife with hate that it may be incredibly onerous to look at. No movie captures that better than 'American History X'. The intense combat between Edward Norton and his little brother within the basketball courtroom is each heartbreaking and eye-opening. It reveals the horrible fact of hate and how it can be handed down by generations.

'Requiem for a Dream' is one of the most exhausting-hitting films I’ve ever seen. The emptiness of addiction is laid naked in your entire movie, but no scene packs such a intestine-punch like the scene in which Jared Leto’s character is smoking heroin and scratching his arm until it's uncooked.

8. Donnie Darko – Plane Crash

The ending of the movie 'Donnie Darko' is concurrently beautiful and devastating. The airplane crash that killed Donnie’s mother is so unexpected and so heartbreaking that it was arduous for me to even watch.

9. Grave of the Fireflies – Death of Sister

Setsuko is probably the most sympathetic characters that I’ve ever seen on film. I was so sad to see her life taken from her in 'Grave of the Fireflies'. Her little brother, Seita, discovers her lifeless body, and the tragedy of struggle hits him even tougher.

The scene through which Mo’Nique’s character abuses Precious is probably the most brutal things I’ve ever seen. It’s a reminder of how actual and the way heartbreaking abuse will be in our world right now.

But nothing is extra heartbreaking than the scene in which just a little boy finds a bomb and brings it to the squad. It’s a reminder of how innocent life may be taken in seconds.

12. The Wolf of Wall Street – Early Loss

It’s onerous to think of a movie with more weight than ‘The Wolf of Wall Street". But no scene hits me quite like the one through which Jordan Belfort (Leonardo DiCaprio) loses all of his money. It’s a reminder of how fickle life could be, and how one can never take anything without any consideration.

These scenes will stick with me endlessly, no matter how many times I watch them. They are laborious to look at, however all serve to remind us of the harsh realities that we all stay in.
