Interesting. How is it ambiguous?

reply

Well what exactly happened? I have no idea.

reply

Yeah, the whole movie was ambiguous.

reply

I'm not sure if it was all a dream or not.

reply

I don't think it was a dream.

reply

See that's what I mean by ambiguous.

reply

I see.

Was Laura dead or alive? Who killed Laura? Or was it all a dream?

reply

Laura was dead. The TV show made that clear (unless you consider the bizarre season 3 from a few years ago).

reply

I wasn't talking about the television show though.

The most recent one for me is Mercy Road from 2023.
