To understand the ending of the movie (2001), you have to light
up a "left-handed" cigarette just about the time the wild light
show begins.  I saw the movie in three different theatres and
observed that those who seemed to understand what was going on
were grabbing some smoke just as the scene started.  I halfway
understood at that time because of the three guys behind me who
were blowing smoke my way.  Other than that, I would like an
explanation too.
