    The Fall

    ★★★★★

    Wonderfully imaginative – this nourished my soul in a way I didn't realize I needed.

    I'm always wary of directorial passion projects, but Tarsem manages to walk the careful line between personal indulgence and audience accessibility.

    Horny boy (The Octoboss)
    That guy (Immorten Joe)
