In our last fight we remembered the great character actors in films, the ones you instantly recognize but hardly ever know the names of. It was the legendary Ward Bond who took the prize, for Shannon as it were. Today she asks:
What mystery has the most satisfying ending, perfectly tying up all the loose ends?
The Rules:
Post your answer as a comment. Make it clear that this is your official answer, one per member.
No profanity. No pornography.
Defend your answer in the comments and fight it out against other MFC members’ answers for the rest of the week.
Whoever gets the most likes on their official answer comment (and only that comment) by Friday night wins the fight. You may like (heart, whatever) as many answers as you want.
The winner gets the honor of posting the next question the following Saturday.
In the case of a tie, the member who posted the question will decide the winner.
Notes:
Only movies will qualify (no TV shows, or documentaries); however, films that air on television or streaming (BBC films, a stand-alone mini-series) will qualify.
Your answer can be as off-the-wall or controversial as you’d like. It will be up to you to defend it and win people to your side.Â
Fight it out.

I debated between a couple of dark movies but I settled on Presumed Innocent (1990) with Harrison Ford on trial for murder. I won't spoil it if you haven't seen it but it seems like a pretty straightforward murder mystery until the last few scenes when there are at least three unexpected twists that make you go, "Wait, what?" I don't know if I'd call it satisfying but it definitely ties up loose ends that you didn't even know needed tied.
This one may come down to another tie tomorrow. Dan and Maggie better have a question ready in case I email you tomorrow.
