Tear Jerker / Deep End

• Susan's sudden death at the end. Mike swung a ceiling light at her head after she refused to stay with him. She walks around for a few seconds, noticing she is heavily bleeding from the back of her head, and and smiles, presumably from the shock, and slowly slides face first into the water, face down. Most critics did not like the ending either. Apparently when the film was shown, the audience, who had enjoyed the movie, fell silent at the ending. When asked about why such a great film be ruined in the last five minutes, Skolimowski reportedly replied with, "You know what? I made that film for those last five minutes."
