>The Fall premiered at the 2006 Toronto International Film Festival. According to Tarsem, the Weinstein Company expressed serious interest into theatrically distributing the film in the United States back in 2006/07, but turned down distributing the film after its founder Harvey Weinstein walked out of the film's cut after 15 minutes during its test screening since he could not understand the film's plot. Tarsem claimed that Weinstein even tried to sabotage the film after he walked out of the film's screening and was forced not to release the film for two years until 2008 with a different distributor and its original international sales being handled by Summit Entertainment, Tarsem confirmed this in a 2024 interview in light and the aftermath of Harvey Weinstein's scandal; prior to this, Warner Independent Pictures had also been interested in distributing the filmWhy was big harv so confused by it?
He’s a retarded rapist maybe?
>>222555872Harv was confused because he didnt get to sexually assault any teenage girls at the premier. He couldnt focus.
>>222555872Where’s the bloody rapes???
>>222555872to destroy a jew is to expose them to beauty
>>222555872Criminally overlooked kino. Gay as hell though, bet all the wet man ass near the beginning is what made Harv walk
>>222555872die
>>222556791I don't remember that at all. the swimming scene? can't see shit
This movie is good but the jeet wears his Jodorowsky influence on his sleeve. Specifically The Holy Mountain. It's Jodo but more conventional and with sentimentality. The Cell fucking sucked, it's a movie with great individuals frames...and that's it, the rest is nonsense pseudo psychology and the film was clearly a trend hopping thing, le deep fucked up killers was a thing at the time. Silence of the Lambs, Se7en and whatnot. Everything else he made is straight up trash. The Fall was lightning in a bottle.
>>222557212hmm every filmmaker mysteriously became bad sometime around 2009 they must all just suck
Absolutely gorgeous sets and costumes. I really should get it on bluray cause I can never find it streaming anywhere.
>>222555872Beautiful movie to look at. Mediocre plot.
>>222557935There's something unashamedly indian and kino about making a three hour love story between an adult man and a little kid. It's raw and the fact that people accept the artifice says something. I think it does have an unnecessary half hour of the same plot and the kid mewling.
What's the point of the fantasy story if none of it matters?
>>222558031It's supposed to be from her perspective. She remembers all of it so it matters to her.
