thefridayfive FOR NOVEMBER 3, 2017 (it was posted a day late)

1. Have you ever had a movie both totally captivate and completely confuse you?
I walked out of the theater after Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind doing the confused dog head tilt, and I think I was speechless as well.

2. When watching a movie, do you prefer things all laid out or to have to 'hunt for your own clues' along the way?
I like movies (or tv shows) that make me think. Used to love CSI, though more for the how/science than figuring out whodunit.

3. Do you want an ultimate ending to your movie or do you prefer to have it open for conjecture and discussion.
I want a definite ending. Preferably a happy one. I'm okay with the occasional twist ending that leaves you unsure of what really happened.

4. Do you talk during a movie (preferably one in your home, not in the theatre)?
Only about what we're watching. If in the theater, I whisper into the person's ear. If at home, whoever I'm watching with is usually talking right along with me. In either case, the person/people I'm watching with don't mind.

5. Have you ever seen a blockbuster movie and not get what was so great about it?
Yes, but I can't think of a specific example at the moment.
