T. S. Eliot wrote in the fourth of the Four Quartets, \”Little Gidding,\” something I think is relevant to our study of neo-noir film this semester: \”What we call the beginning is often the end/ And to make an end is to make a beginning./ The end is where we start from.\”
And so, as we end our study of neo-noir film this semester with a comparison of the use and function of counternarratives in the first film we watched, Chinatown, with that in the last, The Talented Mr. Ripley, two films that illustrate the contingent and unexpected nature of human existence, what I would like you to think about is how do the final outcomes of both Jake Gittes and Tom Ripley, in Chinatown and The Talented Mr. Ripley, respectively, bring them right back to where they began at the beginning of each film, and what does this tell you about the nature of reality?
