Re: Re: Happy Ending versus Tragedy
Yeah, I was hesitating about suggesting "Schindler's List." Whether it's a tragedy or a happy ending depends upon whether you're Schindler or all the people he saved.

That's the thing about modern writing. We tend to try to get both the tragedy and the happy ending out of the same story./
