BEING THERE (1979): THE MEANING OF THE FINAL SCENE


When I watched the movie 40 years ago, I took the ending to mean that Chance is not limited by doubt. He can do anything because he doesn't know he can't. Although this is malarkey, it does say something about not letting doubt hold you back.

I took the movie to be a political satire where presentation is more important than substance, which the political leaders completely lack.
