It seems fitting to discuss endings as our class draws to a close. For this last homework assignment, please consider the importance of endings to films and discuss one of your favorite endings. Note how the ending to Truffautâs 400 Blows ended with the freeze frame of Antoine facing the camera, an ending that is intentionally ambiguous, forcing the viewer to continue the story. The ending to Truffautâs film is so iconic that it is frequently quoted or parodied. See this short clip that shows how Truffautâs ending was used for the final shot of Nelsonâs film in a Simpsons episode. To complete this homework assignment, please submit your favorite endings in a comment.
