I’ll get the ball rolling:

Dead Man’s Shoe (2004)

Sounds like a tearjerking tale of a recently-bereaved man returning the shoe of a road accident victim he found in a bush to the victim’s late wife, through which they spark a deep friendship that goes beyond mere love. PG-13 5/10 Oscar-bait shite.

The movie concludes with him dying homeless and alone, without any possessions or friends. He is buried in a pauper’s field, his body unclaimed and unnamed.
