The final shot

I was reading through a discussion on an ambiguous ending of a movie I just finished, and something hit me: we never see the ending of any movie.

The observer becomes part of the film, as they experience it. The ending of any movie isn't the last shot; it is your reaction. What is happening in your mind is the end of the film.

There is no definite ending to any piece of art; it carries on in the way it affects us. Maybe art is a question. Maybe it is mirror. Whatever is becomes within us, and through us, it is certainly not resolved.

No piece of art exists as an independent something; it is a process. Artists aren't creating a thing; they are igniting movement that passes through and connects all.
