does anyone ever cry at the ending of Matilda??? or was that just me,, every time I watch Matilda with people I find myself holding back tears, or when I'm alone I end up crying at the end of the movie when she gets adopted by miss honey. I'm in foster care and never had a mother while I was growing up so I guess that makes sense. i always wonder why I cant have what she had while growing up, I still do I wish I didn't.
this also goes for when I see a father and daughter together, I feel some hatred or jealousy, I feel selfish for it. I really do, I kinda had a father and mother up until I was six and than I got taken into foster care, up to this day I rarely saw them now they are both dead.
pretty forward I think but I was just wondering if I only feel this way.

i understand this but for different reasons - i was neglected and saw my parents fighting almost every day, matilda was a big big part of my childhood and what comforted me despite all the chaos. i wanted what miss honey and matilda had and i still hold back tears and such watching the end. i think a lot of people wanted or still want what they had ngl, everyone i've talked to about the movie envies their relationship
i don't think it helps that mara wilson's real life mother had died during film production. the movie and its history just tugs on a lot of peoples heartstrings, sometimes in ways they don't even realize
