Forrest Gump

I'm looking for something more hopelessly bleak and dark

Winter's Bone
Nebraska
Cake

The Road

Winter's Bone was pretty gud

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?

basically, any heroic sacrifice. Logan.

...

300?

Ikiru

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

this

not out yet but coming soon i think:

Doom... Cabin in the Woods...

I think it would be hard to market such a thing.

John Wick

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

Cast Away.

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

All is Lost
