A couple scenes from Miles Teller
Thank You For Your Service: he cries while contemplating suicide, and breaks down after he decides not to go through with it.

Cooper Raiff in his self-written and directed debut film Shithouse, crying on the phone with his mom about how much he misses his family and how he's not truly engaging with living his current life. It's beautifully emotionally articulate and honest and vulnerable. (His second film, Cha Cha Real Smooth, is about to be released and god I hope he cries because he has the cutest little sobs.)

If you like Nic Cage, he falls to the ground sobbing in a surprisingly-affecting scene at the end of Knowing. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3OP-TUEjJos

Thanks for posting these as short clips, they're very convenient that way 🙂

Question about the last one from Crime, for context is the guy asking the questions to the crier actually trying to be helpful or is he the antagonist, like what is his motivation in the scene?

He's the antagonist and he plays mind games with him to make him lose it. At the same time he's also helping him to deal with his pain and release it. There's an uncanny insight that he has into his mind.
