Technically he doesn't die, but for all intents and purposes, in the context of the film, he does. Him pleading and trying to reason not to be turned off and expressing his fear is quite affecting.
It always destroys me': our writers on their saddest movie deaths. Judith in Dark Victory. The tears start as she's saying goodbye to the dogs before continuing up the stairs to her bed and death from her brain tumour. By the time the credits roll, I'm in pieces.
The machine says Dave. My mind is going. I can feel it. There is no question about it. I am afraid. And in the end it sings the children's song Daisy. This is not a living being obviously. But it saddens me and it is a masterfully made and chilling scene. Iwan_Karamasow.
The journey Denzel Washington's character goes through, from suicidal drunk to deeply caring father figure to Dakota Fanning throughout the movie is well earned, and the moment he shuffles up the bridge, slowly bleeding to death and knowingly walking towards his death is heart-breaking. But it's the moment when he sees her still alive that gets me every time, and when she throws herself into him, I lose it.
