Sometimes I worry that I've lost the plot. My twitchin' muscles tease my flippant thoughts. I never really dreamed of heaven much until we put him in the ground, but it's all I'm doing now - listening for patterns in the sound of an endless static sea. ~ Conor Oberst

La Moustache - 3
It's an intriguing premise. Marc decides to shave off his moustache, and when no one notices it becomes a question of whose memory is correct and what exactly happened. The film starts out well giving the impression of a comedy, but then soon gets caught up in being too abstract to know what is going on...suddenly Marc is off to Hong Kong. It seems that the point of the film may be that life is more uncertain than we think. But I think that might be a little generous. The film is well made, technically, using sharp images and sound to tell the story. But the plot never seems to pan out, and I was lost.
