Take the following as truth: A case can be made that Velvet Goldmine isn't fully filled in, and that Haynes, who has never shaken off his background as a semiotics major, has made a movie that's all signifiers.
Then the following statement: "The Velvet Goldmine appeared difficult to pin down because Haynes was attempting to simplify the movie." is true, false, or inconclusive?
Answer: Inconclusive
