This November the epic action movie starring Henry Cavill and directed by Tarsem Singh, Immortals, will open in theaters. Before seeing Singh’s latest work, go back to watch the last film he wrote and directed, The Fall.
The Fall stars Lee Pace as a 1920s stuntman hospitalized after a stunt gone wrong. He struggles to come to terms with his paralyzing injuries in a Los Angeles hospital until he meets a fellow patient, young Alexandria. This curious six-year-old listens as the stuntman, Roy, tells an adventurous fantasy tale that starts to weave itself into reality. Familiar faces in the hospital start to take their places in the story, playing itself out on the screen.
The visuals brought to the screen by Singh are nothing short of breathtaking. While you take in the eye candy, there is also a hell of a story taking place. As time goes on the relationship between Roy and Alexandria grows deeper as he starts to see her as more than just a little girl to sneak him morphine. If you don’t get a little teary eyed from the film’s resulting eyegasm, then perhaps the story itself will do the job.
Go. Watch. Now.
