I'm looking for something more hopelessly bleak and dark

>>80553076
Winter's Bone
Nebraska
Cake

>>80553076
The Road

Winter's Bone was pretty gud

>>80553076
Sam and Frodo in Return of The King
Especially at Mt. Doom

But they succeeded in the end. I want something where the protagonist is doomed to failure but keeps on going anyway until the bitter end.

Sorcerer

So he dies basically.

I'm drawing a blank but I know it happens.

Okay, Boromir's death at the end of Fellowship?

300?

Ikiru

>>80553076
Kes.

No, more hopeless than LOTR. Even Boromir had friends and allies at his side when he died, and his sacrifice was foe a good cause.

I want something where the protagonist is completely on his own and basically going through hell

John Wick

>>80553389
Braveheart.

This guy gets it. The part where Roy Scheider snaps and starts randomly hacking at trees with a machete is amazing.

Vampire's Kiss. No joke.

Son of Saul

>>80553572

Cast Away.

Even at the end he loses, his wife is gone and he has nothing.

All is Lost
