The Fall
An outrageous imagination and sense of colors combine to make this film beautiful. I think the story is too thin for adults, and a little too dark for kids. There is death a violence and terrible sadness, but it's also an interesting movie, rich in ideas and humanity. It reminds us that fiction is real to the one who imagines it. An adult might read with detachment, but kids know the truth. This film takes place in Los Angeles hospital in the 1920s. Alexandria is a curious 5 years old child with broken arm, and she meets a friend named Roy Walker. He was a movie stunt man with legs paralyzed after a fall. He tell Alexandria stories including one about Emperor Alexander, and the second story of six men: Lury, an explosion expert, a Native American Indian, a runaway slave, an East Indian swordsman a masked bandit, and Charles Darwin. They want to kill the oppressive Spanish Governor Odious for all the injustices on each of them. This is an epic story of love and revenge. This film capture each amazing setting, architectural oddities, and every kind of epic landscape, long, long trip through the museum. This film jumps from humor, comedy to documentary to wrenching drama. There's no real sense of suspense in the plot beyond wondering what setting we'll arrive next. When Roy Walker asks Alexandria to steal morphine for him so he can commit suicide, she steals the medicine for him and as a result he continues with the story. I think Alexandria was little confused about the morphine because she doesn't have clear idea of how Roy is going to use the medicine. When she was looking for the medicine last time she has an accident, but she didn't realize the dangerous. She only wants to give the morphine to Roy because he was in depressed. All of the actors in story represent characters in Alexandria's real world. The Magic is an orange picker and the princess is a nurse. The movie also has a double function, capturing both the brilliant vistas of Alexandria's fanny and the duskier, shadowed limits of a hospital. Became it is something close to metaphor, it's a fictions within a fiction about the curative power, and possessive attract of fiction. Who own a tale? The one who tells it? Or the one who is listening? Both became invested in the telling. This film shows how you can play with your imagination, and how it doesn't have limits. It also shows how you can change. I love and learn a lot from this movie.
