F#1: The Fall

hey guys. here at chromaphilick, we not only love colorful stationary pictures, we also adore visually stunning moving pictures!
so i hereby introduce, movie monday?...film feature day?(does that sound cheesy? any suggestions? post a comment).
mind you, these are only our mere musings; our liking of the film may be based on the outstanding plot, the unique cinematography, or the cool effects. feel free to express your own sentiments, whether or not you share our humble opinions or to share your own favorite films :)

the first film to featured is one of my own favorites:
THE FALL
directed by tarsem singh
stars lee pace *swoon* & catinca untaru

synopsis: "At a Los Angeles hospital in the 1920s, Alexandria is a child recovering from a broken arm. She befriends Roy Walker, a movie stunt man with legs paralyzed after a fall. At her request, Roy tells her an elaborate story about six men of widely varied backgrounds who are on a quest to kill a corrupt provincial governor. Between chapters of the story, Roy inveigles Alexandria to scout the hospital's pharmacy for morphine. As Roy's fantastic tale nears its end, Death seems close at hand."
every shot is a piece of artwork, and from what i've heard, the director chose to use as little special effects as possible- which is amazing. i adore catinca untaru & the storytelling aspect of it is just so fantastical.
& now i will bombard you with picspam :)

*all copyright credit goes where they're due of course. & the last two collage arrangments are by karla.
also, would anyone like to trade links?
