the fall (2006)

Alexandria is a young girl recuperating with a broken arm in a Los Angeles Hospital, who befriends another patient. To while away the time he tells her a tale of six men who are on a quest to kill an oppressive leader, for various wrongs he has inflicted on them. He obviously makes this up as he goes along and as it does the tale grows, blending and evolving to encompass her reality.
A film that revels in showing how movies can entrance with breathtaking visuals. The story is inconsequential, don't think about it at all, it's a mere means to draw you into the colour. A feast for the eyes. Sit back and let it roll over you.
