Out Of Sight. Steven Soderbergh's romantic crime thriller from 1998. The story of Jack Foley and Karen Cisco. An escaped convict and the US Marshall he bumps into on his escape. He's a charmer and they fall for each other big time. George Clooney and Jennifer Lopez are amazing in this and the chemistry between them just lights the film up. You want them to end the film together but it looks unlikely when Clooney's recaptured and jailed. Then just as the film is over he gets a glimmer of hope. I won't ruin it if you haven't seen it but it's a perfect ending. Not sad, not happy but so perfectly optimistic. One of the best films of the 90's and one of the best final scenes ever. Sublime.
