[Unfocused] Monday at the Movies: All's Well That Ends Well - Over at Filmcritic.com, they've come up with a list of The Top 50 Movie Endings of All Time. As is usual in such a list, they're forced to leave some out.
I could point out the obvious fact that Hitchcock's Psycho is missing from the list. I'm not talking about the reveal of Norman's mother that traumatized me as a 10-year-old (still can't figure out what my friend's parents were thinking when they took us kids to the drive-in for that one), but Norman's interior monologue in the cell.
But actually, the first one that I thought of when I read about the list on Boing Boing, and one that has stuck with me ever since seeing back in high school humanities class back in the 60's was A Man For All Seasons and its final "quick cut" to black.
