Dear John Dad Hospital Death Scene

This is the scene where John reads his father the letter he wrote for him to read before he sadly passes.

[@wonderlasting]

I believe this was the most important scene in the whole movie. It's a love story. He learned to love his father!

[@windstrucklady1]

Did you read the book? If not you sure got it right. It does reveal how grateful he is to Savanah for teaching him to accept and love his father.

[@wonderlasting]

+windstrucklady1 Yes. I read the book. It's better. I love this story because of my relationship with my dad.

[@windstrucklady1]

aww.. much happiness to you in accepting things as they are,

He always loved his dad

[@_GeekyDad_]

I am not ashamed to admit that I just cried.......manliest man tears of cause.

[@JSTX9216]

No shame, it is an amazing scene that makes it dusty in here whenever I see it too.

[@No-onesgayformoleman]

I cry everytime in a father death scene. I lost my father to cancer and I remember the last time I ever saw him he told he told me how much he loved us (my bro and sis) and how glad he was that we were in his life. Every father death scene reminds me of that day.... Every father death scene.

[@chanty123able]

This is such a beautifully tragic scene, because for the first time in years his dad really felt like his dad and he could bond with him but it was also the last moment he got to spend with his father.

[@TheMoviePsychic99]

This was the best scene in the whole movie..

[@ghost.protocol]

Good fathers are such a blessing and not everyone is lucky t get one.. I am blessed with a wonderful dad, a great person.. he acts all tough and strong in front of me.. when i joined college in a different country and he had to leave me and go after enrolling me and taking me to my dorm he said good bye and then turned and walked back.. i looked at him as he walked and when he was abt to reach the car, i ran to give him a hug and at that moment I saw he was Crying, the first time i am seein dat

[@yoimea]

To finish his sentence, this is what he was suppose to say: "The last thing I thought of was you." He was referring to his dad.

This scene make me cry, the fact that when he was younger didn't respect him, but in the end he realize his dad is all what he have, breaks my heart. Masterpiece scene. 😭💯

I Always cry at this :( his dad is so adorable

[@amandabre]

Channing's acting here is so beautiful.

[@jaclynsanture6643]

yes it is

[@jai4715]

This was such a good scene. Sometimes when your about to lose someone, you find the value in it. His dad was always so considerate of him.

[@JSTX9216]

Richard Jenkins, the dad, is just such an amazing actor. I love anything he is in. I loved him on Six Feet Under

[@greatestever9086]

He had asbergers not autism

[@mandylynn1995]

It's always the scenes with the parents that make me cry in Nicholas Sparks movies. It's never the love story.

[@jman3254]

I lost the only person that made me feel like everything was gonna be alright, even though I had a few periods where I didn't actually think things were going to be alright at all, about life in general. That person was my everything and my home and my all---- my dad. This scene was too real. He left me a year ago. I eventually found myself again, but I still feel lost every day, and I am now 60 years old, but I feel like 6 when the pain of my dad being gone hits. I lost it watching this scene. Too real. Too real. Too real.

[@sdm1568]

What's that got to do with the dysfunctional relationship in this scene? Good for you. Glad you had a great dad. Some don't. Go watch any other movie and relate to it, this one isn't for you.

[@Cleh05]

This is precious moment of him reconciling with his dad.. This is moving.. Hard not to cry..

''the last thing I thought of was you'' 🧡

[@pam0626]

This scene was when I realized Channing’s talent. All of those subtle gestures he makes that show affection for his dad.

[@MrsBritta1996]

This scene means that most to me , because this showed the true love between child and father and knowing that i may never have that!! He got to say goodbye and thank you for all that he had shown him, i know someone will read this and not understand but not knowing a parent and not getting to have that relationship is the worst thing in the world so to anyone and everyone who reads this. Dont take both your parents for nothing, you are in this world because of them!!

[@_gabe_2407]

Briana Nash I Agee, I just never got in time to the hospital to say goodbye to my dad when he took his last breath

[@Juandirection1]

I was on a first date when I first saw this movie, my pops wasn’t doing to well at the time. And I cried big manly tears during this scene. RIP old man.

[@LaNoturna]

Honestly, if a guy cried during this scene on our first date, he would definitely get a second date ❤️

[@sdm1568]

Wait, were you the dude with the popcorn bucket with the hole in the bottom on his lap? If so, I defintiely remember you, you sneaky bastard!

[@munyaradzinyarugwe8769]

[@zuziaw4649]

The love story was boring as fuck, but this... I'm in pain.

[@111whitepony111]

A huge missed opportunity by wasting so much time on the love story part.

[@LaNoturna]

I agree with both of you-this film needed to be able John and his father. I wish much more time would have been spent on that and not the romance. Amanda and Channing didn’t have any chemistry, so they couldn’t sell their “love” story.

[@hobosapien6227]

I cried at this part when I first saw it and still do. I can relate.

People are lucky to have dads .. My dad passed away 12 years ago due to cancer.. Fathers are the best

[@jatinverma7221]

Sorry to hear that 😢😢😢 rest in peace.🙏

[@sdm1568]

People are lucky to have *good* dads. Mine disowned me 20 years ago for coming out as lgbt, hasn't called or anything since. Not a birthday or Christmas goes by where I don't have a void in me telling me I'm not worth being loved or cared for. Would much rather have a dead dad who loved me than an alive one who would never claim me.

[@UnforgivableT]

Many just many emotions in a scene. First the innocence of his father. A hobby to bond with his son torn because of obvious adulthood. Many unspoken words now crumbled into a single letter. The first thing John will keep in his father’s memory, coins. The last thing his father will keep, John’s last memory.

[@PinkLadiesInSweden]

This movie has the scens when you just want to sleep, and scens like this.. When you just can't prevent your tears to fall and can't take your eyes of the screen. I love this type of scenes, that show us what we really feel. It show how great you are!

[@nicholaslamantia9597]

My dad and I watched this movie together and I knew this scene was coming and didn’t want him to see me cry so I got up to go to the kitchen to get some food during. Cried in the kitchen before coming back.

[@butterflyhippie123]

This scene was one of my favorites.So sad and moving. His dad always loved him. He just didn't know how to show it.

[@ListenToyourHeart9898]

He did such a outstanding performance here my number one favourite movie channing Tatum has ever done this is why I love his acting when he plays rolls like these

[@doctorz3518]

This scene reminds me of my dad. This is almost exactly how it is. The Doctor decided to take my dad out of the Room because he is already dying. It was just like this, my mom called me, had a video call with my dad. At the very end, I spoke to him just like this. The only thing that is different is, I talked to my dad just like the old times, telling jokes and we still laugh up until the very end. Im glad he was able to rest in piece. In the past when we were young, we don’t talk too much about our feelings. We used to always talk about silly stuff and just have a genuine good times. Miss you Dad, hope you’re doing okay up there ❤️🙏

[@sdm1568]

WAH. At least you had a dad to lose in the first place.

[@caseydykes117]

Single handed The most heart wrenching, Gut wrenching sobbing scene I have ever seen. No contests that come close

[@joandrisarias6710]

He never had a good relationship with his dad, It reminds me a lot of myself, It took him to realize for his dad to be in a dying bed for him to show his guilt and feelings, Thats why this scene makes me cry. Thats why it hits home, Cause both of them delt with pride.

The very beginning of the movie you hear the voice over 1:12 and of course naturally you assume he was saying that to her but it turns out it was to the most important person in life: his dad. I love how even tho this moment is so heartbreaking it’s a moment where him and his dad finally embrace each other after being so distant throughout the movie💔
