ABSTRACT
Since this is the last chapter, it is appropriate to say a few words about endings. The question often arises
“Which is more important, the beginning or the ending of a film?” Some believe that the beginning holds
the most significance, since at that moment the filmmaker has an opportunity to grab the audience, to get
them involved with the characters and conflict that will follow. Others, however, believe that the ending is
the more important aspect of a film because what happens there will remain with the audience after they
leave the theater.
