Speaking of alternative history, the would be director in me would love to remake Fatherland. But I’d stick to the ambiguous ending of the novel.

[March draws his pistol. Camera, tight shot, on face/upper body with the pistol visible in the frame. Heavy breathing. Look of exhilaration in March’s eyes, knowing he’s found the truth. March runs forward out of frame. Sound of small-arms fire. Cut to black.]

Roll end credits.
