My recently-completed PhD thesis focused on the subject of the Hollywood 'happy ending', which has obviously required that I delve into endings and closure more broadly. One article stemming from this research, 'Does the Hollywood Happy Ending Exist?', is available online here.
Again a German-speaking resource:I have been doing research on narrative film endings (I think you are actually referring to my queries on this forum some years ago). Please get in touch for any more information you need. There is not much research on this topic, so I am trying to build a research network around this.Catalin
