THX 1138

The budget for the pursuit and capture of THX (Robert Duvall) runs out when the cops are mere yards away from grabbing him, leaving THX free to complete his escape from the totalitarian society. He climbs a ventilation shaft towards daylight and emerges to…a barren desert under a blazing sun. THX stands there with no idea of what to do next as the end-credits roll.
