It depends on each individual. And the loss.
I tend to go for those few films that make me cry(and I'm not a crier) ...but not from the tragedy in the film but from the turning point where things shift and get hopeful.. and things turn out better than expected.
Shawshank Redemption
A Patch of Blue
Room
Lion
The Color Purple

Of course a good revenge film can do some good as can a happy upbeat film..Anything that involves you in something away from your loss.
