Apple Intelligence is now available on iPhone, iPad, and Mac!
Been trying to find a keyboard shortcut or even a button in iMovie 10.1.14 to navigate to the end of the movie. 18-minute video and scrolling is difficult and slow. There is a go to beginning key, but can't find any to go to end. Macbook Pro Catalina 10.15.7.

Here's another cool way to navigate the timeline. Use the j, k, and l keys. Tap the l key to move forward in the timeline. Tapping it repeatedly will increase the speed of the scroll with each tap. Tap the k key to stop. Top the j key to scroll backwards in the time line. Again, successive taps will speed up the scroll and pressing the k key will stop it.
This method works well when you want to speed back and forth through the timeline to get to places other than the beginning and end points. Also, it helps when looking for a particular frame or a clip in a longer timeline, or just to check your edits by scrolling through at medium speed.

Thank you. Thank you.
The fn - left or right arrow is exactly what I was looking for. Interesting, I couldn't find it anywhere in any literature.
I have been using the slider, but knowing the z key helps.
Using Command - or + is nice.
I've only played with this application previously. This was my first full project, and it's been working out very well.
Again, Thank you. Thank you!
You can also shrink or expand the timeline in a couple more ways.
With the timeline selected, press the ⌘ and + or - (minus) keys and for each press the timeline will double or halve its current length.
You can also move this slider to expand or shrink the timeline.
You should have 2 options.
To jump to the end or back to the beginning use the fn key and the right or left arrows.
Alternatively by holding down the ⇧ and Z keys you can shrink (or expand) the project to just fill the visible timeline.
Thanks I knew about the J and L as play keys, but I didn't know about speeding up . . . FF RR
Like the universe, knowledge is an ever expanding thing. 😀 I didn't know about the fn left and right arrows feature that I learned from Ian's post.
