. What a mystery this world, one day you love them and the next day you want to kill them a thousand times over.

Watched The Fall (2006)
Soaring highs and abysmal lows. Often impressive, always sufficient performances in the frame narrative give way to a part Dalí, part Escher dreamscape, decadent and uncanny, shocking in its beauty and scale. The content of the interior story, however, is utterly inane (outside of the very ending, which gets all of its emotional legitimacy from the dynamics in the frame narrative, and none from the interior). What to do with a movie where black-clad knights seep out of an Escherian staircase world like beetles, coating the surface of the structure as they march, but their aim is to kill a fictionalized version of Darwin whose monkey has just died trying to show him the rare butterfly for which he's been searching. The issues with the interior tale go beyond inanity, though, in that they are full of totally unexamined racist and misogynist caricatures. I am baffled that such an artistically considered movie carries such an obtuse and frustrating narrative as a core part of its showcase. I did find the dynamic between Alexandria and Roy compelling enough, and there may be some earnest investigation of the varied power of story in their interactions, but when the visually and narratively interesting threads are so completely separated, the movie drags in the first two thirds or so. This is somewhat remedied towards the end, which contains almost all of the most compelling scenes (although only most of the most compelling images), but it's hard to say if the whole thing works.
(god just look at this)

'The Fall' – an epic of imagination, heartbreak, and innocence on MUBI
Tarsem Singh, a veteran of music videos and commercials who signs his films as simply Tarsem, spent years developing The Fall (2008), a labor of love tale that is as much about storytelling is it is about the story being told. Lee Pace stars as Roy Walker, an injured stuntman working the silent movie westerns made in 1915 Hollywood. Nursing both a broken leg and a broken heart, he is visited by…

Dando uma pausa rápida aqui nas postagens élficas porque eu preciso falar para vocês sobre esse filme lindíssimo que mexeu muito com as minhas emoções essa semana: The Fall (2006) de Tarsem Singh - o mesmo diretor de The Cell, que eu já assisti há alguns anos de achei igualmente impressionante.
Recentemente comecei a acompanhar o @leeepfrog por curiosidade, pra ficar em dia com o que quer que ele esteja fazendo de interessante (em grande parte porque comecei a assistir a série Foundation). Então ele postou sobre The Fall, que está em cartaz no @mubi . Resolvi conferir.
Eu não sei nem por onde começar a falar desse filme pra vocês. Meu foco aqui é fantasia e esse post não sai do tema, porque fantasia e storytelling são o sobrenome dessa obra.
O filme conta a história de Alexandria, uma menina que se recupera de um braço quebrado, e que conhece no hospital Roy, um dublê ferido em cena. Ela passa a ir visitá-lo todos os dias e ele conta a ela uma aventura de seis heróis em uma missão para matar o vilão Odious.
A cinematografia de Colin Watkinson me deu uma rasteira que eu nem sei explicar pra vocês...pensem em quadros super equilibrados em luz, contraste e cor...MUITA COR! As imagens (como você pode ver acima) são praticamente pinturas em movimento. 🥹
Dan Gilroy assina o script com uma história envolvente, o suficiente para que eu particularmente deixasse passar pequenos detalhes por estar tão imersa na história (como o profissional do raio X, não darei spoilers), e para realmente me apegar ao grupo de heróis. Claro que as atuações impecáveis também ajudaram muito.
Sei que alguns de vocês gostam das minhas dicas de filmes, então assistam The Fall. Tenho certeza que terão uma experiência imersiva e, com alguma sensibilidade, até catártica. É um filme incrível. 🩷
- Como vocês também sabem eu amo figurino então quero fazer depois um post especial pra falar só sobre a Eiko Ishioka, designer que assina os dessa obra.
- A trilha sonora também é um show à parte então provavelmente vai ter post também.
