The Fall (2006) - a movie to see

Last week I saw the movie "The Fall". The movie was screened as part of a fiction and sci-fi festival.

One of the first things I liked about the movie is the fact that it's not your average fiction/fantasy/sci-fi movie, in a sense that parts of the plot were happening in early 20th century, rather than a future or alternate universe.

The cast is splendid, and Catinca Untaru does an amazing job in lifting the movie beyond any other movie I've seen in a while. Her ability to play the role, and interact with the main characters, including actor Lee Pace's two characters, make a difference in the movie and help transcend the movie beyond being a "regular" movie.

The fact that the movie was released in 2006 did nothing to affect my appreciation of it. Something about it seems to transcend beyond.
