    it was on tonight on TV3 for those that missed it :)

    great movie overall but there is only one thing i dont get - the ending. ok, the jude law character Jerome didnt want to live his life anymore so he killed himself. why did he give the other Jerome (i know, its gets confusing) the lock of hair and said to him that he was going travelling?!? future voodoo doll? sentimental reason? hell i know ... anyone?

    How far did you expect a drunk in a wheelchair to get?

    Answer: Jerome gave Vincent the lock o'hair so that he would know which colour hair dye to get!!!

    whats wrong with my theory? he only went into space for a year and when he comes back he needs to know the hair colour. he already has all the dna he need with the blood and the urine which are in the fridge!!!

    Jerome: "you have enough samples from me to last you two lifetimes"

    other Jerome: "Where are you going?"

    Jerome: "Im going travelling too!" (wink, wink) then he gives the other Jerome the card and tells him not to open it untill he is up there (ie space). the real Jerome kills himself in the hot stove kinda thing and the fake Jerome goes into space where he discovers the lock of hair from the real J. meaning that he too is travelling to space and at the same time supplying the fake J. of the information about which hair dye to get when he gets back to earth. :)

    Yeah well, not once in the film did Vincent dye his hair or got his hair colour inspected. I think it's just a symbolic thing. Jerome is going travelling because Vincent is taking a piece of him(Jerome) with him(Vincent).
