Mystic River delivers one of the most heartbreaking endings of any crime thriller and highlights Clint Eastwood's talent for character psychology.
Mystic River's ending delivers a great twist that ties its murder mystery with the drama of each character. Directed by Clint Eastwood, the movie follows the story of three estranged childhood friends; Jimmy, Dave, and Sean, whose lives are marked by a traumatizing memory of the past. When Jimmy's teenage daughter is found brutally murdered, two parallel investigations take place, and bruises from the past threaten to shatter the lives of the three friends all over again.
The police arrive just in time, and it is revealed that the two teenage boys wanted to give Katie a scare and accidentally fired Harris's gun. To prevent her from telling someone, they chased after her and killed her. The twist is anticlimactic, but the movie still keeps viewers up at night because it makes absolute sense with Mystic River's scenario, which revolves entirely around motivations.
Why Did Dave Confess To The Crime ? Mystic River is among Clint Eastwood's favorite movies of his own, and he knows its strong performances are vital to the successful result. Tim Robbins nails the most mysterious role in the movie, Dave, a character whose past and present actions are never fully shown, forcing the viewers and the characters to figure it out on their own.
Mystic River is also an anti-revenge movie: on the night Katie died, Dave beat a child molester to death after catching the man abusing a little kid; yet still, Dave didn't feel like the hero he thought he was for saving the kid. In fact, his mental state only got worse. Although confessing to another crime is hardly a good alibi, it could've saved Dave's life had Jimmy believed him.
