Endings: The Good, The Bad, and The Insanely Great by Michael Arndt (FTV12)
Some movies leave you feeling indifferent; some leave you satisfied; and some leave you exhilarated, walking on air, and seeing the world through new eyes. What, then, is the difference between a bad ending, a good ending, and an insanely great ending? Screenwriter Michael Arndt attempts to answer that question with a close analysis of the climaxes of Star Wars, The Graduate, and his own script, Little Miss Sunshine.
