watched "House of Flying Daggers" tonight. WOW. Not as good cinematically as Hero. (WOW WOW WOW!) but a slightly more interesting character development. Intriguing. Moving. Sad. Wow. Not for everyone I am sure, particularly that the ending is really never finished. The main character storyline is somewhat wrapped up but ending of the bigger picture, the story our story is told within, is never revealed. I like that. I like it a lot. I don;t always like being told how things end. I sometimes like having open endings. In some ways I think the ending of it all will be like that. We are told how things will end, armageddon, old earth destroyed, new earth introduced, etc...and sometimes it seems as though that is it...like ok heaven, and that's it. But that isn't it. In a way I think it is left open, what will heaven be like, what are the stories that will develope there? What will I do, whom will I meet. What will we do?I don't want a nice little bow tied on the answer to this question. Do you? Do you really want someone, anyone to know that...for it to be that simple, that predictable? Or do you long for mystery, and expectation and wonder. Open endings. Like cold milk with chocolate cupcakes after a swim in the lake.
