"Dheepan is a Sri Lankan Tamil warrior who flees to France and ends up working as a caretaker outside Paris."
Wow.
Must see.

Tell me about it. A film about an immigrant caretaker in Paris would be sooo boring.

And, I'm sorry to admit, there's over-absorption with entertainment.

Does an imaginative assassin specialise in surprise endings?
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...
|
|
|
|

the surprise is on the assassinated, so yes! I d prefer to think of an assassin marketing themselves as meticulous rather than imaginative!
|
|
|
|

Oh, I dunno.
There are some people for whom a "normal" exit just wouldn't be enough! 
The Imaginative Assassin could probably charge a premium for "special" jobs.

I think it would be more a case of Arsenic and Old Lace. 
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

I guess if I m hiring an assassin I more concerned with the end result and a lack of breadcrumbs back to thyself; so meticulous appeals more to me! If the result is utter revenge I see imaginative as an ideal quality! I guess 'beauty is in the eye of the beholder'.

My list:
1. The Microsoft Device Driver group.
2. The Lotus Notes development team.
3. The entire InstallShield company staff (if they still exist as an operating unit).

I'd slide McAfee and Symantec in near the top of that...and the f'tards that write RansomWare.

Good candidates as well. Symantec and InstallShield deserve extra attention for taking once great product lines and making them suck so hard they have an event horizon.

Might I please add in:
Customer Support at Virgin Mobil
Customer Support at Roku
Can one add a few bucks to the contract to ensure it's done painfully?

As someday it may happen that a victim must be found
I have a little list (I have a little list)
Of society's offenders who might well be underground
And who never would be missed (they never would be missed)
There's the pestilential nuisance who calls for "Tech Support"
All people who write programs that exit with abort()
All children with homework who want answers just too pat
All persons who write viruses and other stuff like that
And all third parties who on weaker codes insist
They'd none of them be missed (they'd none of them be missed)
...
(With apologies to Gilbert and Sullivan)

With a meticulous assassin, you get "the victim is history".
With an imaginative assassin, it's "the victim is geography".

So, who should you hire to get an alternative ending?
