Director Tarsem Singh has completed a 4K restoration of his visually striking 2006 film "The Fall," re-adding and altering scenes that were originally omitted to enhance the viewing experience.
The restored film, which tells the story of an injured stuntman (Lee Pace) who spins an elaborate fairy tale for a young girl (Catinca Untaru) in 1920s Los Angeles, will screen at the Locarno Film Festival.
Speaking to Variety, Singh revealed that the restoration process began after fans had been asking for years why the film wasn’t more widely available. “People were buying it for $200-$300 on Amazon or eBay and complaining about it,” Singh said. “I realized I had to do something about it.”
