Sopranos - Was: First Couple-Three...

[Bryan Snyder]

I liked the ending of COL49, but I'd like any ending where the last 6 words
of the book = the title.  I'm a sucker for cleverness for the sake of
cleverness.

 

But yeah - once the credits rolled and I realized that it was not a cable
outage. Right away I thought. "and she awaited the crying of Lot 49" (or
something similar).

 

Perfecto.

<< I actually thought about the Crying of Lot 49 when it was over. >>
 
I just posted the same thing before reading your post.  But I thought the 
ending was a manipulation of the viewer and was built of violating a long
history 
of film and tory-telling conventions.
 
I'm also not so enamoured of the ending of COL49 ...
