_Jude_ (dir. Michael Winterbottom) is a 1996 adapatation of a Thomas Hardy
novel that deals with this subject in a depressing manner. The loss of a
couple's children in a particularly horrible way puts an end to their
relationship. The film doesn't quite concentrate on this loss, since the
loss happens in the last third of it or so, but it is very striking and
almost unbelievable when it does.
