I've seen the movie four times now, and it just keeps getting better and better. Thanks for insight of the graphic and the man behind the curtain. :)

I didn't see the movie but the the title sequence has astonishing visuals.
The DOP and the director are pro's and you really see they mastered ther skills.
Some of the titles are a bit short (like the ones after the dog scene) but still it is a masterpiece. It tells an own story, too.
I will now see the movie for sure.

Thanks for this great website.

Thank you for such a comprehensive analysis of the title sequence from one of my favorite films of the year. I already loved Stefan Bucher's Daily Monsters, so the fact that he did this title sequence is just icing on the awesome cake.

I wish the book they put together wasn't quite so rare. I've spent months, off and on, trying to find myself a copy. Unfortunately, there weren't many and everyone seems content to hang on to theirs ><

it's just a set of nice pictures.. nothing more..
very week story stands behind all that extravagant set design and cinematography. tarsem is not for directing, i think. he would be good photographer for example..
the only interesting and worthy aspect of the movie lies in its costume design. all the praises for ishioka. very inventive but i'm afraid not enough to save the picture..

Thank you for the insight. I only hope more people discover this extraordinary film on DVD. I recommend it constantly.

Not only is this a visually stunning movie, the story is both powerful and tender. This imiginative story, enhanced by bright costumes and breath-taking scenery, shows the importance of friendship, imagination, and the capacity of the human spirit to overcome crippling depression. To some, it may seem droll and sentimental, but I believe it to be a real look at how stories can change our lives.

The Fall is an astonishing if slightly lightweight film, but I suspected I was going to thoroughly enjoy it when I watched - almost with gaping mouth – the wonderful title sequence. Many thanks for reproducing them here; I have told all my sons and daughter (who as it happens is studying film production in York) about it and having praised the titles now they can see this magnificent sequence for themselves.

i haven't seen the movie but this is so impressive i almost don't want to see the movie! tarsem can be astonishing in short films (remember losing my religion?) but, judging from the cell, his visuals at some point can get tiresome.

anyway, this title sequence is beautiful.

Alonso,

Suppress judgment until having viewed The Fall and given it a day's thought.

Do not view in haste but have the film at the ready the next quiet opportunity.

I had to view the film over three nights and I looked forward to each viewing, which, humbly, bespeaks its style, its depth and its heart.

If you love the cinema then there is something in this film that you will gasp at in both acknowledgment and surprise.

I want to ask one thing to whom so ever it may concern...

Firstly, this film is great in all aspects I watched it many times in many layers. I found the great part is the way girl imagines the story, her associations becomes reality in her imagination.
Is this all predetermined or is it a way of representation? I'm doing my U.D. research thesis on phenomenology and its interpretations. I am planing to analyse this film, the narration and its imagination. Can anyone shed some light on this?

For some interesting comparison of opening title sequence scored to Beethoven’s Symphony No 7 In A Major, Op.92 (2-Allegretto), see Lola (1961) directed by Jacques Demy. British Film Institute also dedicated a section of their website on scoring music for films and OST with commentaries given by noted film makers. I like the discussion on Stanley Kubrick's choices of music for Barry Lyndon.

I discovered this place by chance. I'm glad, it's amazing. Very cool, your post about Puras Joyitas, I saw the movie because i'm Venezuelan.
