what ending to a film would you like to change - Britmovie

donna · 12-05-2008, 07:30 PM

can you think of any film where you would like the ending made differnt, I howled watching the end of Madame X with Lana Turner when her ex husband didnt tell the lawyer son that it was his mum he was defending in court for murder.

I don't think giving away the endings to films is a good idea for a thread Donna ... I taped Madame X a while ago but haven't watched it yet ..... now I know how it ends!

There will be lots of films some of us haven't seen .... if anyone does want to follow this thread please use the spoilers function.

Thanks.

Train of Life.

Cheerful rubbish,but at the last moment the director bottled out and gave it a right on, PC ending

Jean de Florette
Before Jean gets the dynamite out, he comes across a lost Rambler whose O.S. Map indicates that the source is the up the hill a bit and to the right.

oops apologies, didnt know there was a section for this, thought everyone had seen the film Ive seen two ,one from the forties too, good story , thought cause old films everyone would have known, ok wrist slapped and put myself on naughty step.

Please do not give away the endings of films!

Donna, there isn't a special section for this. The spoilers function is a tool much like the edit option.

Don't worry on it.

I always like to know how a movie ends before I see it.

If I had known that Train of Life was just another Holocaust movie with an unhappy ending I would have saved my money and rented To Be Or Not To Be

But quite a few of us don't!

I won't give away the ending - let me just say LAVENDER HILL MOB - we all know how it should end don't we?

Briant · 18-05-2008, 09:21 PM

In 'Casablanca' they weren't sure who Ilsa would choose at the end were they?

I'm fairly sure that's a myth based on Paul Henreid claiming in interviews that his contract said he had to get the girl, something Warner's legal department have no record of.

Unlikely that the Hollywood mores of the time would have had the wife leaving her husband for her lover. Interesting that there were four possible last lines between Rick and Renault suggested for the ending too.
