* ''Film/WristcuttersALoveStory'' ends with Zia waking up in a hospital bed, having returned from the [[CrapsackWorld limbo for suicides]], and finding his LoveInterest Mikal is in the next bed over. The last shots are of the two slowly beginning to smile at each other (made more poignant by the fact that in the afterlife they both escaped, it's impossible to smile).
