It's clear that Tarsem Singh is very passionate about this story, and the actors and actresses did an awesome job of telling it through his vision. It's a touching story, delivered with beautiful scenery and cinematography. This is the kind of movie I can watch over and over again, picking up different details each time. Highly recommended!!

"The Fall" tells the story of a young girl, who is treated in a hospital and gets to know a young man that promises to tell her an adventurous story if she gets him the pills he needs to kill himself. Over the course of time, a story of love and hate, adventures and death evolves, that contains many autobiographical elements of both the story-teller and his listener.First of all you have to pay credit for the creativity, with which this movie is carried out. Also, the plot is magnificent and definitely different from many similarly schemed movies that are distributed each and every year. Unfortunately, for me the film feeled a bit to quiet. I understand that this man is broken-hearted and really on the edge of a depression but still the film could have used some more tension and twists. As it is, this is a beautiful story of a broken love, but it doesn't keep you on the edge of your chair.All in all it is nonetheless definitely worth a watch. Beautiful stories like this one aren't realized every day and for the superb pictures alone you should give this film a try.

Leads great. Settings wondrous. Spoilt for me by violence of the finale. Redeemed however by genuine silent movie out-takes at end. Overall, compelled to watch until the end because it's just a different movie to the usual.

or beautiful in profound sense. an adventure. and the ice flowers of imagination. all is seductive and large and powerful and touching and unique. first, the great performance of the young Catinca Untaru. then - the story itself. homage of childhood, total show, "The Fall" is the film who could be the ideal refuge against the shadows of near reality. for its poetry more than for its fantastic. in essence - one of the wise Oriental stories about meanings and about miracles and love and happy meets. nothing new, at the first sigh. but all great in each senses.
