Emotionally and gut-wise, I think it's a good ending. The final image of Karol Karol is effin' iconic to me. Beautiful. It should be a mainstay of classic film moments montages.

When I think about it, I don't really like the ending...maybe because I don't like the movie from the point ****spoiler**** of his funeral and beyond ****spoiler end*****. But, yet, I see the point to the film's story.
