I've watched Once Upon a Time in America twice in 24 hours (on AMC) and I'm still confused.
This may SPOILER MATERIAL, so please don't continue if you haven't seen the film.

Near the end, Noodles (Robert De Niro) is walking out of the party after refusing to shoot James Woods. Alone, he comes out of a driveway and onto what looks like a street. A garbage truck is sitting there. As he walks away, the truck starts up, hits its lights and begins to move forward.
As it approaches him, a figure come out from the driveway, and from the distance, it looks like James Woods. He walks with the slow-moving truck, and at the moment the truck blocks your view of Woods, you hear two(?) gunshots and then he's gone.
Did he shoot himself and jump into the truck, finally taking his own life?
Thanks!
