By Request: The Fall

I didn't much like The Cell, except that it was pretty. And I do love pretty movies. This new movie by the same director looks very, very pretty. Plus, Charles Darwin is in it.

Thanks for the cross post. Is it just me, or does the trailer make the movie look a lot like The Adventures of Baron Munchausen? It's the first thing I thought of when I saw the trailer. I actually think TAoBM is one of Terry Gilliam's more underrated movies, so an updated version (especially one that looks as pretty as this) would be most welcome.

I also thought of TAOBM. And I loved that film. Anything derivative of that would certainly be welcome, like (to a degree) Pan's Labyrinth.

Let's face it: I love pretty films based on Alice in Wonderland. Give me as many as anyone can shit out.
