*8* Saddness =,(
The saddest moment in a Disney movie to me, is the death of Mufasa. The beginning of the movie introduces us to not only cute little Simba, but his majestic father Mufasa. Who is seemingly a wonderful ruler and father. Then we get crushed as Scar unfairly justifies killing his brother in order to gain power. I feel a jab of pain everytime that I see the look on Mufasa's face once he realizes he is losing his life only because of his brother's greed. There are two main reasons (besides the obvious fact of his complete death) that this moment ranks saddest. One, it was totally preventable as Scar was obviously evil and should have been banished a long time before this. And then the other reason is that Simba basically looks on as his father is murdered, and then is brainwashed into believing it was his fault. The effects this has on our protagonist is one of the things that makes me want to cry. I never really do, but I always feel pangs of saddness.
