The Land Before Time
Man, I loved this movie when I was young. We had the video and we watched it all the time. I decided to buy it and show Elise, well aware that there is a scene where the mom dies in the beginning. I've tended to avoid the whole death topic with Elise but thought that maybe this was a good opportunity to introduce it (beyond talking about bugs). Well, man oh man, she was a wreck and cried her eyes out, especially at the end of the movie when she realized Little Foot would not be reunited with his mom. Of course she started asking when I would die and she wouldn't believe me when I told her not to worry about it. Finally I said, I will die when you become a grandmother. She laughed at that because she understood how unlikely it was that she would in fact ever become a grandmother, haha! She's watched the movie 2 times since and still cries at the end every time.
