i actually felt the movie WAS self-contained. while ambiguous in a few places, i think it leaves the viewer with all the clues needed to construct an interpretation of the movie that is not only all-encompassing, but also internally consistent. i'd offer my view, but i doubt anyone is begging for it considering previous threads about this movie.
i do understand the frustration with non-self-contained movies... 9th gate comes to mind...
