The Nines

This is the most confusing movie I have ever seen. Even at the end when you think you are going to finally understand you are left more confused. What are we watching really, a movie about aliens playing a game? Are we watching a film about the "Sims"? As an example of how strange this movie is... Imagine someone tells you are going to watch a movie and as you begin to watch they stop the film and say, "This actually happened", and so you begin to watch and then they stop the movie again and say, "You are not actually watching this, you're somewhere else", do you see where I'm going? If anyone has answers to this I would like to know.

Nines The

Gary, an actor who plays a cop on television, uses too much lighter fluid when he burns his ex-girlfriend's things, then he drinks and drives, uses crack, and crashes his car. He sobers up in jail and is placed under house arrest and the watchful eye of a publicist, the cheery and tough-minded Margaret. She moves him into the empty house of a writer who's away in Canada on a shoot. Gary meets Sarah, an attractive and seemingly-willing neighbor. His friendship with Margaret blooms and strange things happen: he finds notes he doesn't remember writing, he hears noises, and he seems to bump into himself in the kitchen. Two remaining chapters reveal what's going on.
