SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Summary Alex Garland’s latest film, Civil War, ends with multiple deaths. The film, set in the future of the US, where a civil war has broken out and the states have been split into various factions, including the Western Forces, which are fighting against the Loyalist States with plans to kill the president.
Lee losing her mentor changed her, and the war zone near the White House put everything into focus. Lee stepped in to save Jessie because she was all out of steam; she had given her all for years and losing Sammy was witnessing the true consequences of the job. Lee jumped in front of Jessie to ensure the new war photographer would live on to witness the Western Forces taking down the President. Lee was still jaded, but she recognized the importance of the work.
It could also be that California and Texas will go back to being on different sides politically, though that may take much longer considering the way the country has been divided in the civil war. What’s more, with the president’s death the US’ future is called into question. It’s likely that a leader with the Western Forces will emerge, and that could create an entirely new conflict.
Where The Florida Alliance & The Loyalist States Are In Civil War’s Ending Civil War’s primary focus is on the Western Forces Given their vendetta against the president, Civil War’s Western Forces take up the majority of the film’s focus. The Florida Alliance is briefly mentioned near the start of the film, but the alliance’s perspectives and allegiances regarding the war are vague, though it seems like they’re allies with the Western Forces.
The Real Meaning Of Civil War’s Ending The film’s finale brings meaning to photojournalism Civil War’s ending centers on the importance of photojournalism in the midst of wars and horrific human actions. Near the start of the film, Lee says that surviving a war zone made her believe she was sending a warning home, but then nothing much changed. And yet, the film’s finale showcases how crucial the documentation of events is — no matter how awful they are.
