Kevin Smith's Clerks ends as ingloriously as it begins, which only reflects the drab reality of the lives of its characters. After a day of bizarre and laughable experiences, Dante (Brian O'Halloran) closes the convenience store with no resolution. The abrupt ending is in line with the slice-of-life storytelling of the film, leaving viewers with the feeling that the problems of the characters will not end when the credits are done. Its raw, unapologetic conclusion helped cement Clerks as a cult classic of indie cinema.
