15) First Reformed (2017)
Trending
Paul Schrader ends his First Reformed with a surreal, overtly ambiguous ending. First, Reverend Toller, overwhelmed with hopelessness and preparing to do what he believes will be one final act of environmentalist protest, is stopped when Mary arrives, which checks his impulse for destruction. He holds Mary, embracing her in the intense moment before the screen blacks out. The lack of resolution at the ending makes the viewers wonder if this is a reality, an illusion, or the dying man's final vision.
