Hi, sorry about the general mundane nature of the subject, but thought this could be a good way to say hi to a few more people on this site (assuming anyone replies...lol). So here's goes, what's your favourite film ending? Gotta say mine is The Usual Suspects, Kevin Spacey wandering out of the copshop casually, changing his whole demenour as the police figure out who they've had in their midst...awesome... Here's a hearing a few more suggestions...
Gone with the wind .........
Yes, Hi to you too, RIP.
My favourite are Yul Bryner's words at the end of The Magnificent Seven:
"The farmers won" and then "Adios" (or was it the other way round?) - the young lad turns round and rides back to be with the young woman and live happily ever after - brilliant.
Plim :thumbup:
One of my fave films by my fave actor so has to be Casablanca for me.....here's looking at you kid - brings a tear to my eye every time :cry:
I must admit I've seen some brilliant films ruined by a dreadful ending, the same with some books.
After watching Titanic, the ending was wonderfull though, the very best part.

Hmmm struggling here
I'll go with a good and bad one
Back to the future, cus the end teased you by heavily suggesting there was more to come. Took there time about that didn't they.
Stand by me for being brutally honest. After a great adventure we dont all go on to be mates for life and live happily ever after.
Yeah, I know what ya mean, far too many films ruined by the ending, don't find it quite so much with books... I know one that splits people, The Blair Witch Project, always loved the ending myself, even if the film is wearing badly. To Kill a Mockingbird always good as well... While I'm here was it just me or was Transformers 2 really as bad as I thought, or does it perhaps need another viewing?
PS - rumours of a Titanic sequel, it comes back with a zombie crew, cross between Pirates of the Carribean & Dawn of the Dead...lol
all I can say is:
eyyyyyyyyyyye ee eyyyyyyyyyye, will always
etc.

Notthing to do with the end of a film, but if you're watching telly now (sunday ) watch Rabbit Proof Fence on BBC1...fantastic film (but a tad bleak and upsetting) :thumbup:
The Italian Job (the proper version not the Yank effort)
I guess its not considered a good ending lol But the end of' Of Mice And Men was like the only film that nearly got me in tears, just a really cool and alternative ending. Pretty thought provoking.
The end of Gladiator. I've had people tell me it isn't a happy ending - IT IS, one of the happiest endings I've seen.
Am with Sassy on Casablanca a real classic film.
When I was a kid I recall seeing Zulu on the big screen and not knowing the story the end was just amazing and such a spectacle.
How about a spaghetti western for a change The good the Bad and the Ugly ahhh ahhhh ahhhhhhhhhhhh wahhh wahhh wahhhhhhhhhh
Bladerunner.
Rutger Hauer as Roy Batty.
Roy, holding a white dove and is left standing above his struggling opponent. As Deckard loses his grip, Roy seizes his arm and easily hauls him onto the roof, saving Deckard. As Roy's life fades away, he sits and delivers a brief soliloquy about the experiences of his life "I've seen things you people wouldn't believe: Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion; I've watched c-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhauser Gate. All those moments will be lost in time; like tears in rain. Time to die." He then dies, and the white dove flies away from him.
I once read that Hauer improvised that soliloquy, which makes it all the more memorable.
i watched that film so many times as a teen love it
