Review of The Fall (2006) by Tsz Yeung Yvonne P — 30 Aug 2010
I am surprised by how little publicity this film gets. I saw it in EIFF 2008. It was so colourful and vibrant, the cinematography is great. It was filmed in so many different countries.The story is not the best, but I enjoy it thoroughly. It's ashamed that it was never really on general released.
For more detail, I also wrote a review on imdb:
I watched it at the Edinburgh International Film Festival, the UK premiere. It was wonderfully shot, the interaction between Lee Pace and the little girl is amazing. I don't think the little girl is acting, I think it is her as a real person just being a kid. Although the imaginative story is an epic in its own right, the intervals of light comedy moments are equally good.
Once again I think I set my expectation too high, I wasn't disappointed with the movie, but I just don't feel I am fulfilled.
The character of British naturalist is the most comical one, with all the colourful characters I find myself enjoying this film very much. The only thing I don't understand id why does it take so long to released. The film finished in 2006, but it 2 years to get it out to the British audience. Why?
