The Fantastic Fall
June 24, 2008
A scorned lover named Roy manipulates Alexandria, a young girl, into helping in his suicide attempt, as she grows attached to the man as a father figure. Even with the underlying theme being so depressing, the friendship forged between the two characters keeps the audience entertained. Roy weaves an exciting story to distract Alexandria from what he is asking her to do. This is a refreshing change to the movies displayed in the Festival so far.
The intermittent stories in the movie are so ultimately different in genre that it reveals a truly intriguing contrast. The use of colors helps point out the drastic change between the stories. Bright, eye-catching colors identify the fantasy part of the movie and add to the exciting atmosphere created by the story within the story. The Fall easily deserves a five star rating.
