TOKYO - The Japanese distributor of “Babel” is warning audiences the movie may cause nausea or headaches.

Gaga Communications has received 15 complaints since the film, starring Brad Pitt and Cate Blanchett, opened Saturday in theaters throughout the country, company spokeswoman Aimi Ichikawa said Wednesday.

Ichikawa said the company was investigating which scenes caused the illnesses, and hasn’t ordered theaters to adjust sound or lighting.

Ichikawa said the company was investigating which scenes caused the illnesses,

You'd have to be pretty dopey not to realize that the scenes in the disco with loud music and all kinds of flashing lights and then from the girl's perspective of total silence and drunken disorientation were what was causing the the headches and nausea.

Then again, maybe it was the "hairy monster."
