The movie "Alice in Wonderland

I recently tried watching "Alice in Wonderland" on YouTube. Unfortunately, the last seven minutes or so just refuse to buffer—it’s infuriating. So, I'm left hanging without knowing how the story actually concludes. Who kills Ann, and what was the motive?... The video just freezes right at the climax, when Lola is sitting on that branch with a noose around her neck, threatening to end it all because of Ann.

I am also curious about that "monologue" from the Gypsy queen who works for Ann. The audio quality on YouTube is absolutely abysmal. One evening, that gypsy woman delivered this monologue regarding Patty and her son, Jack. I really want to know exactly what she said... In that specific segment, she uttered things that "normal" people would never dare to say aloud...

Her brother actually killed her. He just couldn't handle his own possessiveness and refused to accept that she might want someone else in her life. It was all about him not wanting to share. Shortly after that, he takes his own life too.
I can't quite recall what the gypsy said...

I stumbled upon an essay about the book yesterday. From what I could gather—though I may have misread it, given how dense the text was—Lola supposedly headed to Mexico, while Michael went to Boston (after Ann passed away). As for who actually killed Ann, the essay didn't specify. Perhaps the book differs from the film version... it's possible I just misunderstood the nuances.

Anyway, thanks for the answer.

There is one more thing that escapes me. After leaving town, Michael starts working with livestock. Following a period of prosperity, he receives a letter—I don't recall from whom. I find myself wondering how that letter ever reached him, given that nobody back in town had any idea where Michael had even gone😲. Either I am being an idiot🙂, or the movie is simply poorly written🙂. Though, I must admit, my concentration tends to wander frequently when I'm watching films...

I’m not sure, I have it saved on my hard drive somewhere, so you might actually be right.
By the way, regarding that paper we were discussing—the book does explicitly state who killed Annie. It spends a massive amount of time analyzing all those romantic entanglements and treats love itself as the killer, but at the very end, it finally mentions whose hand it was.

Personally, I think that movie is Jordan's weakest work, though it's still decent. If you haven't seen them yet, I highly recommend checking out "Big and Small" and "The man in the photo." They are both solid thrillers, especially that first one—it’s easily one of my favorite classic American films.

Also, with some of those grainy clips floating around the internet where a few scenes are missing, the original versions are definitely longer, but they probably just weren't preserved.
