Roman Polanski on Chinatown

Because if it ended with happy ending, we wouldn't be sitting here, talking about this film. If you want to feel for Evelyn, if you feel that there is a lot of injustice in our world. If you want people leaving the cinema with a feeling that they should do something about it. If it is all dealt for them by the filmmakers, they just forget about it over the dinner. That's it.
 I remember when I was a kid I saw Of Mice and Men. I remember I loved the film. And it stayed with me for so long. I felt so sorry for that Lennie. I thought that what a pity Lennie couldn't be saved. And then I realized that if Lennie was saved, I would forget about it the next day.
