Currently watching a rather odd Japanese movie (starring BEAT Takeshi, so you know it's going to be an unusual movie). It's about this man who borrows mob money to pay for his dying wife's last wish: a trip to the beach. That, in turn, entangles him into the affairs of the mob.
The movie's actually ending right now, and the last scene consists of two lines by the wife, but the music and general acting gives it this calm sense of... wrongness.
Ah, two minutes later the violins are silenced as two gun shots are fired, but the married couple aren't on the screen since the camera had panned to look at the ocean.
Final shot: a girl staring forward holding a popsicle.
Not quite as unusual as Gohatto, but I liked the ending to this one better.
