Best ending to a Movie.

Not many people know of this Henry Fonda classic from the early 60's. Great choice.
You obviously haven’t seen it. One of the most gripping movies I’ve seen.
The Usual Suspects.
Shawshank Redemption always makes me misty.
Scent of a Woman. A Few Good Men. Two of my favorite endings that I can watch over and over.

The answer to the dilemma was always in full sight. it was just in that time it was unthinkable. So when the only possible decision was made, it still provided a wallop of a shock.
John Q I think, Denzel one. That was good. There was a heist movie with Deniro and Ed Norton. Decent movie but had a great ending.
Dumb movie called the mist but ending was either really good or bad, still not sure which one.
There was a WW2 movie, probably made in 70s where they had a nazi high ranking official in an airplane and he knew he was facing war crimes so they gave him the chance to jump out of the plane. The last scene shows him then pans away then the good guy closing the plane door. Always freaked me out as a kid watching it.

Just curious. Have you seen that movie? I like that movie a lot. Like many other older movies, it has gotten less and less viewing exposure. But that doesn’t mean it isn’t any good. I can’t remember the last time I saw 12 Angry Men with Henry Fonda so does that mean it just isn’t very good.
Was the ending that great? Adrien balboa annoyingly screaming “ read the papers read the papers.”
Nice symbolism with the door closing and the dude kissing Mike’s hand and all but that was pretty much just a few seconds.
I guess I am a sucker for the symbolism then. LOL
I guess for me it is why that scene makes so much sense. He just went with an all or nothing solution against EVERYONE, and like he said, he "handled all family business today." There really is nothing else but to say to Kay "Don't ask me about my business" then agreeing to one time, then for the door closing scene. To me it is perfect considering what happened right before it.
Like someone mentioned all my favorites have been listed but Primal Fear - the look on Richard Gere's face when he realized he got played by Edward Norton was priceless.
I know it's a bit cerebral and probably not to the liking of many. But my favorite ending was in Cast Away.
Sixth Sense is pretty good, too.

no, you are right, it's memorable ending for sure.. talia shire just high pitched ranting about reading the papers with the ny accent keeps jumping out at me though, like nails down a chalkboard...
you mean with him being at the 4 way intersection with the aerial view? that was good. Frustrated at first that we didnt get to see what was in the package but probably best that way, keeps you guessing.
if i was making the movie, i'd have had tom hanks get in the jeep with the hot red head and go drinking at some dive bar.
Pretentious answer - Trainspotting. Great closing speech and soundtrack
