Meggy Mendeš it does not matter the.award bcoz thier award was from us that watch.this movie.and the lessons we've learned thats the most impact to all.
that old lady is actually the same young actress from the start of the film never mind that brilliant makeup making her look old her acting is perfect!!!!
The fact that this movie didn't win a single Oscar blows my mind. This is by far one of the most beautiful and emotional stories that has ever been put on film. And the acting is out of this world, stunning.
D G.G. guys, room was nominated at the oscars BEFORE this year. lion and room are like a year and a half apart. however, lion was nominated for like 6 oscars and the high end ones too so you cant exactly say the academy rejected it. it honestly had no chance, but i still adore this film. i was crying in the theater
Sorry, this film wasn't full of extraneous sex and violence, nor did it try to shove political correctness down your throat, so it didn't have a chance.
this was actually the first scene that was shot...what an incredible actor you have to be , to not have lived the whole story physically and emotionally, but can already jump in and play the very ending so real.... I'm so guttered he didnt win the Oscars for best supporting actor, his performance here was nothing short of spectacular
Gur Ashish What a great movie indeed. Soul reaching !!! All actors are great. And i mean all of them. The only thing that was a bit weird to me was that when Saroo meets his true mum but none of them cries..no tears...it was a moment of joy but still...
This film is also a good reminder of the gap between rich and poor countries...kids in the west throw away their tbone stakes while kids in india scavenge for insects...Great equality in our world today...Bravo to all of us
Throughout the movie I always thought Gudu lost or abandoned Saroo(Sheru), when I found out he died bro I cried like a bitch, a little five year old was looking for his older brother but his brother died.
@@arjunm8548 no real life saroo and his birth mother confirmed that he was hit by incoming train. In India, it's a pretty common incident cause the railway is pretty accessible to anyone, even kids. Its not like railways or subs at other countries
This scene made me cry so much like never before. It filled me with so much joy and happiness. It was probably the best experience I've ever had in my life. Thanks to everyone who was part in making this movie🙏
What is so amazing is that that 5 year old child, who got lost 25yrs ago was able to track his pathway back to his village and find his mother. As a man in his 30's. The vastness of india and the vastness of its population. Despite that he was able to find his mother despite the odds against him. That is like trying to find a needle in a hay stack. Kudos to you Saroo you have shown and proven the resilience of the human spirit. Well done.
Watched this Christmas day, what a film.. agree with what you are saying but the sadness to imagine all of those last years and the sadness that accompanies them. Wow what a film
@@matthewc.1194 what if he killed himself coz he felt responsible for Saroo. Oh he was running everywhere frantically sesrching for him and got hit. Makes ten times more sadder.
@@strawhatmucci7086 yeah I'm guessing he wasn't going to give up til he found him, and just became complacent in the situation and hit. I don't think suicide was the case. At least based on how they portrayed it in the film.
imagine the mothers pain when she lost both her kids one night.later finding out one of them died and rest of her life waiting for the other one to come. she must have thought sheru died too.dev patel and the female actress have done a pretty good job to show the emotions in the scene..if this doesn't make you cry i don't know what will
I went to the cinema 3 time for this movie. I cannot explain how deep it touched me. They express so much with so little words... I would see it over and over again and it would still impress me!
I cry every time, especially when they mention Guddu ;-; makes me wish I had a better bond with my younger brother, who hates me more than he loves me. I try every day to show him how much I love him, hugging him, kissing him, but every hug ends with me being pushed away, every kiss wiped off of his cheek. Sometimes I'll hate him back, with all of his name calling, and the pain he's caused, but that doesn't ever change how I feel about him in the long run. And when we do have moments of connection, it's like there's nothing else in the world. Oh, brothers.
The moment You realize no matter how much Saroo/Sheru went through to get back what that woman felt losing both her boys in one night, and then one suddenly appearing years later.. the whole village mourned them it was obvious.. She was in terrible pain for many years, just imagine when she saw her grown healthy son standing there how much she felt in that moment.. I just can't comprehend that kind of joy.
This scene was too much for me to take, first time when I watched it in the theater... left the movie right after this scene.. to say it was emotional would be an understatement..
it's simple, i cried the entire movie 😂😭 this film moved me in a way that i could never explain, it was more than sadness or happiness in the end, it just touched my soul
This whole movie man. PMS and this movie don't go together. I cried so hard, specially at the end because Gudu died looking for him that day he disappeared. :'(
Gladys Jahn-Sulca i dont know if he died looking for him or thats why he didnt come back but i think Guddu didnt come back because he passed before Saroo boarded the train
Gladys Jahn-Sulca just watched the movie. Incredible... I think Guddu guided him throegh his life somehow..such astrong connection beteeen them. An angel must have been with him all along
RL. yes, Thats just a memory (in the movie). Guddu left him, and They both never saw each other again. It may also be his childhood memory of him (Gudu) Looking out for his brother.
scanspeak00 oh my goodness. That makes complete sense as to why Guddu never returned back to Saroo. Saroo was looking for him when he woke up. I thought Guddu died, *looking* for Saroo when he lost him but you could be right. He probably died on his way back after he told Saroo, “stay right here I’ll be back” I’m so slow😅
What I find strange and curious is that his mother reportedly stayed in the village all these years and did not move from the location because she "knew" that her son would come back some day .
L Martinez why would she leave if she knew that's the last place her son knew she was ?? If she moved there would have been 0 chance of him finding her
Her young son essentially disappeared without there being any clue as to where he could have gone. In the movie it is said that "Lion's" older brother died when he got hit by a train (or that is what I best recall). I am not sure if that is why the older brother never returned to pick up "Lion" from the train station, or maybe the older brother died weeks or months after "Lion" disappeared. It is true that Lion's mother might have stayed in the same location because it would make it easier for her son to find her someday, but it is still amazing that nothing happened that she had to move, such as the village being flooded and people have to migrate out of it, or maybe the mother got very sick and had to be taken to a village that is nearer to a hospital and even though it is a primitive and poor village in which any major renovations or changes ( the construction of buildings and roads) are not likely to happen for decades because the location is remote and there is nothing much for anyone to want to travel there, it is just lucky that the village stayed mainly the same as when Lion was a boy so that he could come back and remember where he had been as a child.
Well yes and Saroo says in his book that this was all she could do, since she couldn't read or write, didn't have any photos of him and so couldn't report him as missing. While he was using Google Earth and obsessively looking for his place of birth for six years, his mother relied on her faith and stayed where he could find her. I cried reading this, it's so touching and powerful.
What really got me crying was when he was told that his older brother is dead, and also close to the ending when we see the younger him playing with his older brother on the train track.
For western people this is unique story but for Indians there are many story similar to this.. millions people have gone threw this life.. Dev Patel acting was commendable awesome
Yes, you are correct. This film will forever be engrained in my mind. It was absolutely shocking to know how many children go missing in India. I live in the USA but have visited India many times, with the incredible dense population I can sort of understand how something like this could play out. It’s nothing short of a miracle that Saroo was able to find his way back.
Absolutely brilliant job Dev incredibly you did a great keep it up dude naturally not everyone could be such a actor but you know that's the best thing I love about Indian people undoubtedly
This movie in its entirety Broke me! So beautiful and heartbreaking at the same time, the little boy that played saroo (sunny pawar) has a special place in my heart now, I don't know if I can sit thru this whole movie again
one of the most emotional and amazing movie i have watched. should have won the oscars. (who else thinks saroos's mum looks like lily singh aka superwomen)?
What a movie!! One of the best in years....so emotional! Especially people who had loss in familiy can find even more yourself in it..and how much important family and their presence is. I lost my brother years ago, so last scene of this film makes me cry like rainstorm....but in general really great story, scenario, playing....perfect film!!
This beautiful story is very touching to me, I feel Saroo and his loneliness and I'm so happy that he finally found his family. I'm not adopted, but I live in Italy and my mother is from the Philippines. I've never met my filipino grandparents and their family in 30 years and I feel pretty similar to Saroo, having a big void inside me. I can only imagine how Saroo felt when he met his mother and his native town. I hope one day I will meet my grandparents and I wish the same to adopted people who has never met their parents.
I haven't even watched the movie yet but seeing Dev Patel's emotional face during the first few seconds of this video gave me goosebumps. I think that says a lot.
I have learned this story during an English lecture in my university, but already knowing the ending didn't stop me from weeping completely at the end. I think it's heartbreaking that for his whole life he has missed his brother and looked forward to meeting him, and just when he thought he would, he discovers Guddu was killed the same night he disappeared. Beautiful, heartbreaking story.
i cant believe that mahershala won.....this was the oscar for best supporting actor mahershala did an standard performance, good indeed but nothing superb like dev did in the entire movie...and lion was superior than moonlight
A particular person plays a various roles in their whole life brother,son,husband etc. I don't know how much you are important for this world but for your family you are only one that family needs you only and not any nothing else.thats a beauty of our humanity God made.
Amazing story..Its so much touching...A color of human spirit. A child lost when he was child and had hardly any clue left with him about who he was and where he came from, but he came back finding his root with the help of the blurred visions he had in his mind as memory....what a touching story...
I don't know how to express my feelings .this scene amazing. How many stories has human like this.hello world please spread love and kindness no matter where you are now
I won't lie. I've lived for 32 years, and that was the first scene in a movie that truly moved me to tears. There have been rare instances when my eyes got slightly moist, but I never actually shed tears except for during this scene. And every time I watch it, I do.
I don't really know why a magnificent film like this did not win an Oscar. Always the industry decides who wins an oscar or not. Simply business, not art. This film is so Beautiful and sad.
An absolutely beautiful movie with a beautiful ending albeit tragic for kids in these circumstances who more often than not never get that second chance like the kid in this movie. The acting was excellent, the kid was amazing and of course Dev Patel was amazing.
My mum died nearly 5 years ago I like to berleve that this will are reunion when we see each other when it's my time to leave this earth a mother's love is the most strongest driving force in this earth I was blessed with a very loving kind mother who supported me and gave me endless love with my spechal needs she was my champion and my friend I miss you every day
Here's why Hollywood sucks: This was a phenomenal motion picture that deserved greater recognition at the Oscars. However the blowhards had to give best picture to a movie about a gay black kid. Next year it will be a gay black girl with one leg and a speech impediment. Hollywood has lost its way. It's being so politically correct and agenda driven, it's cutting its own throat. The public has had enough of that stupidity. Lion was the true Best Picture of the Year. Thank you Australia for a quality film that Hollywood doesn't have the class to make. You're welcome. .

i think you should watch more indian movies this is nothing
@ Randilakovska this is an Australian film
this is acting. not some dude twirling his hat walking around in la la land. this deserves more credit and I hope it's realized..
the NET la la land is an overrated wanna be classic. This has a meaning, this deserves more attention
the NET yes you are so right. abd Dev Patel is amazing in his role of Saroo. I hope they will recognize the true value of this incredble movie.
the NET but he was nominated as best supporting actor and mahershala ali won that, i do think though Dev deserved the oscar more than ali
Really...where is Dev Patel's Oscar??? He really deserved to win IMO.
DV N he was nominated in the wrong category. Had he been nominated for Best Actor, he might have won.

The way this scene is conceived is so raw and authentic !
The actress who plays Saroo's mother is outstanding. So many powerful emotions in simple words.
I had goosebumps when the word LION appeared in the ending.
Actually Sheru means lion
Sheru means Lions
As an adopted child never knowing my own mother....this movie was everything
Don't mistrust. One day you'll meet her
I went to the cinema 3 time for this movie.

I cried more than didnt cry through the entire movie. From the moment he was lost it hit me in the gut.
We were crying like little babies. I dont know if I felt happy, sad or angry or everything in between...❤
Ugly crying is an understatement. One of the greatest films I have ever seen and the most powerful moment I have aver seen.

I watched this movie in a plane from Holland to America. I cried my eyes out, this movie is truly amazing. Worth watching!
An incredibly honest film that was not overdone or over dramatized. Incredible filmmaking. Good job, Australia!
Last time I cried like crazy because of a movie scene -like in this one- , was when Tom Hanks lost Wilson in the middle of the Pacific.

it's really hurts when I heard Guddu is no more. Simply OUTCLASSSS
I don't know how to express my feelings .this scene amazing. How many stories has human like this.hello world please spread love and kindness no matter where you are now
I don't even need to see the whole movie to cry, by only seeing this scene makes my cry 😭
I won't lie. I've lived for 32 years, and that was the first scene in a movie that truly moved me to tears. There have been rare instances when my eyes got slightly moist, but I never actually shed tears except for during this scene. And every time I watch it, I do.
I don't really know why a magnificent film like this did not win an Oscar. Always the industry decides who wins an oscar or not. Simply business, not art.
This film is so Beautiful and sad.
An absolutely beautiful movie with a beautiful ending albeit tragic for kids in these circumstances who more often than not never get that second chance like the kid in this movie. The acting was excellent, the kid was amazing and of course Dev Patel was amazing.
I cried buckets watching this movie. I cry every time I watch it! My 7 year old son loves this movie.
I cried like a baby when he saw his brother on the tracks with a smile.
How much I love this scene. makes me cry every time
I watch this movie more than ten times and I still cry the best movie in decades of film making very touching and powerful ❤️❤️❤️
HAVE BEEN WAITING FOREVER FOR SOMEONE TO POST THIS SCENE
amazing scene
Damn, I cried like a baby at this scene. Unspeakably and overwhelmingly emotional.
I cry every time I watch this. Absolutely heart breaking yet astonishing at the same time.
My mum died nearly 5 years ago I like to berleve that this will are reunion when we see each other when it's my time to leave this earth a mother's love is the most strongest driving force in this earth I was blessed with a very loving kind mother who supported me and gave me endless love with my spechal needs she was my champion and my friend I miss you every day
Here's why Hollywood sucks: This was a phenomenal motion picture that deserved greater recognition at the Oscars. However the blowhards had to give best picture to a movie about a gay black kid. Next year it will be a gay black girl with one leg and a speech impediment. Hollywood has lost its way. It's being so politically correct and agenda driven, it's cutting its own throat. The public has had enough of that stupidity. Lion was the true Best Picture of the Year. Thank you Australia for a quality film that Hollywood doesn't have the class to make. You're welcome. .
i agree
bollywood sucks thousand times more...no dark indian anywhere
Love this movie and this scene. Dev was outstanding, you really feel the emotions.
Someones cried in the movie theater. It is very touching, especially for the one whom had just lost own mother
Dev patel... what an acting man... you are brilliant man..
oh my god...no word to express the feelings...will be remembered for ever...
who disliked this video they don't know the value of Mom love.
'Where's Guddu?'
Made me weep so much 😢
