I just finished watching Disco Pigs for the first time about ten minutes ago. My face is still covered in tears.
From the scene in the Palace all the way through the end credits, I just curled up and sobbed. I can hardly walk.
I don't think a movie has ever moved me this much.
Incredible. Just incredible. It was one film that was so good, I didn't think about the actors, because they weren't actors. They WERE these beautiful, fragile, unstable humans.
Beautiful.
That's how I felt.
The first time I saw it, I finished watching it at about 3am. I sat there with my jaw wide open and felt numb for about 15 minutes until I started weeping. I've never been touched by a film like that before--it is one of the most beautiful and tragic things I have ever seen. It's truly a work of fine art.
Now watch me rise up and leave all the ashes you made out of me.
OMG!!! SO true SO true.
Its just unbelievably brilliant. Makes me cry time and time again.
*big hugs* xxxx

This is an amazing movie - one of the few that actually made me cry. I love it.

Luckily I'd seen this movie before I read this but some people haven't so you really shouldn't give away the important parts (that goes for any movie).
Anyway, this movie is absolutely amazing. I could barely go to school the next day. I felt like *beep* off everything else because this movie was so brilliant and filled me with so many emotions and thoughts. A gorgeous film.

Oh, come on! The title for this thread is "This movie broke my heart" which makes it obvious that the poster has seen the movie, been upset by something in it and wants to discuss it. That's what these forums are for. And this movie has been out for a long, long time. If a movie just has been released at the movie theaters then people should be careful with spoilers. At least in the subject lines.
If you haven't seen a movie and don't want to be spoiled then you shouldn't go reading in a forum about the movie 'cause guess what? There's almost nothing else but spoilers there. Sorry for the rant but I get so sick of people accusing others for their own mistakes.
I am getting some reviews before I watch the film and this just spoiled it for me. Remember next time to not give away too much of a film especially the very end. Maybe this post should be deleted since it does ruin it for us reviewers. I know you didn't mean any harm.
sharei think theirs to reactions to disco pigs, crying with emotions or crying with laughter
Men are from Earth Women are from Earth get over it
Yeah, that was pretty messed up. I'm pissed now.
"They only mock that which they don't understand."
ah, i didnt cry when i watched it for the first time, i htink i was in too much shock... but it was really amazing and moving.... but now im getting all teary, and i dont know why.
of course, this is one of the only movies that has moved me so much, and no one i know has seen it...
i made my mom watch it just so that i would have someone to talk to
i was rewatching the scenes that they have on the website earlier today, and now having seen the movie and knowing what happends, the only word for it is heartbreaking. im just so torn, you hate what pig does, but i couldnt help but love him and his innosense, and i began to hate runt for not loving him in the same way, and then i started thinking how horrible that was, she just wants to have a normal life and thats good because i couldnt stay with him... i dont know, ive never had such a strong reaction to a movie before, to three or four scenes from a movie. i know people have said this, but its hard to put into words, and i just needed to rant... (more people need to see this!)
and its almost relatable, you know? not that any of our lives are that extreme, but everyone wants to have a part of what they have, yet be nothing like them at the same time, and i dont mean that it changed my life or anything, it just really gives you something to think about... i dont know if that made any sense, i feel like im, hmm icant really think of the right cliche, but it sounds kindof cheesy what i just said. its just a really powerful movie, the whole time i just wanted to make pig better, to get him out of the world that hes in, and you cant, and its really frustrating, i guess thats what i was trying to get at...
(and ranting about my 'feelings' is infinately more interesting than 'the south under radical reconstruction', haha)

when pig nodded to runt- giving her permission to do it- it was such a slight gesture but at the same time it was soo big - i can't get his face as he did that out of my mind. kind of like (now this is a random link) when jesse smiles n says 'i know' in 'before sunset' - its funny how the smallest things are often the things that stay with us the longest.

I've seen this movie no less than 10 times and I don't cry anymore at the end, but it still moves me each time I see it.
shareThe thing that I liked about Disco Pigs was how they'd managed to create an amazing love story underneath all the violence and ugliness.
I mean, Pig could easily have come across as a real psychopath, considering how violent some of the film was. But his friendship with Runt made him seem really human.

This movie moved me so much more than I could have imagined, especially the scenes where Pig is talking to himself and the ending. The Palace scene was so brutal and I was just shocked.

This film for me left me in the same state that The King did, I know what Pig did was wrong but I can't help feeling for him.
After seeing it I was left in shock, like I was totally upset but couldn't cry.
Love it tho.
