I have a double-question poll here. First, which ending do you think was more tragic: Michael alone with his flashbacks and conscience in GF II, or Michael dying alone in GF III? Which affected you more deeply or was more effectively executed to you?
Second, the ending image of GF II was very resonant, and I think it made the tragedy of it all indelible on the viewer's mind. You really saw that "crime doesn't pay." Do you think the opening up of the future with the GF III movie diluted that tragic image and message, or otherwise detracted from it?
