favourite films? difinitive endings you ask

Well theres this french subtitle film called Amelie its kind of an arty movie but its really awesome and in the end you know EXACTLY what happens she gets the guy and they live happily ever after and her father deals with his emotional detachment, with books i dont mind so much if there isnt a total difinitve ending because thats the point of books - to use your imagination. But with movies it takes all of the visualising the scenes and characters away so it does not require any imagintation what so ever so i like it to be clear like many childrens stories also have difinitive endings - cinderella, snow white, repunzel, rumplestiltskin (sp?) you get the point. Dont get me wrong it doesnt have to be a happy ending like i also love the book JESSICA by Bryce Courtney and that most definitly does not have a happy ending but once again - diffinitive.

What makes a good film?

Our group came to the general consensus that a difinitive ending was very important also a good storyline we also had things like developed editing, good camera techniques there were also other ideas such as drama good acting and emotion.
