I left a comment (a question) about endinng that I don't think was spoiler alerty, but I don't even want to tread close to the possibility, so I deleted it. (I thought you had to approve these comments, but I think I was thinking about Courtney's substack.) I'll just ask you when I see you at the L.A. Bookfest.

Helpful post. Ending in screenplays are even more treacherous, I think. It's amazing how many movies we are fans of, and we can't quite remember the endings, though. Or maybe that's just me.
