James Cameron backs Kathryn Bigelow amid debate over \u2018A House of Dynamite\u2019 ending<\/p><\/div>\n

American filmmaker James Cameron has a firm stance on Kathryn Bigelow\u2019s A House of Dynamite.<\/i><\/p>\n

The military thriller sparked intense debate among viewers over its divisive ending.<\/p>\n

The movie stars Idris Elba, Rebecca Ferguson, Jared Harris and Greta Lee in a reimagination of how US government might respond to a nuclear attack.<\/p>\n

As the movie progresses towards its end, it appears to end in a destruction of Chicago but stops short of showing the anticipated mushroom cloud, hence ending in an abrupt moment.<\/p>\n

The ambiguous ending has drawn criticism for being anti-climatic however James has backed Kathryn\u2019s idea.<\/p>\n

He told The Hollywood Reporter<\/i> that he told Kathryn over dinner \u201cI utterly defend that ending.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThe point is: From the moment the scenario began at minute zero when the missile was launched and detected, the outcome already sucked. There was no good outcome\u201d, he explained.<\/p>\n

He also compared the movie to Frank R. Stockton\u2019s classic short story The Lady, or the Tiger? where there is no climax.<\/p>\n

James believes that it was deliberately designed to underscore the real-world consequences at stake.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
