Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })I'm Thinking of Ending Things is a 2020 film, the third after Synecdoche, New York and Anomalisa (in part) to be written and directed by Charlie Kaufman. It was adapted from the novel of the same name by Iain Reid. Following announcement of its production in 2018, it was released on September 4th, 2020 by Netflix.It revolves around a young woman (Jessie Buckley) driving with her new boyfriend Jake (Jesse Plemons) to meet his parents (Toni Collette and David Thewlis) at their remote farm in the middle of a snowstorm, all the while apprehensive as she has been having second thoughts about their relationship. The ensuing interaction only makes things more stressful from there.As is par for the course for Kaufman, the film is both incredibly surreal and notoriously hard to categorize, perhaps more so than any of his previous works. It has been summed up as a psychological drama, but has also received a range of labels including surrealism, postmodernism, psychological horror/thriller, and black comedy.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); }) | |

Amazingly Embarrassing Parents: Jake's parents start out as socially awkward farm folk who laugh in all the wrong places and regale the young woman with embarrassing anecdotes about Jake. Then they slowly become more unsettling as the dinner descends into Surreal Horror. | |

Ambiguous Ending | |
| I'm Thinking of Ending Things / int_42215dce | comment |
Ambiguous Ending: Was the janitor Driven to Suicide like his book counterpart? Or did he freeze to death in the snow when his truck wouldn’t start? The final shot of the janitor's truck makes it clear he never left the school, but the sounds of an engine turning can be heard during the credits. But then there's his hallucination of him going back into the school with an animated pig. | |

Author Avatar: In-Universe. Jake is the younger and more successful mental projection of the Janitor. How much they actually resemble each other and how much of Jake's personality is made-up is up for debate. | |

All Just a Dream: Everything that happens in the film was just the fantasy of The Janitor. | |
