I love this quote from the movie: "Go ahead, shoot you animals. They'll pay you well for Darwin's hide".
I watched the special features like you suggested. They were different than other behind the scenes that I've watched in that there were no interviews. I liked it. Made me almost feel like I was there. I felt really bad for LP when I saw all the crew, etc, playing soccer (or something involving a ball) and knew that he would only have been able to watch it from afar.
I saw the part you were talking about when they told everyone Lee could walk. He seemed kind of nervous and hesitant. Tarsem, to me, almost seemed giddy and like he was laughing, but maybe he was nervous about how the reaction was going to be. I was surprised to see all the clapping because I think I would've been one of the people who was pissed about all the extra work and lack of trust. I still get why they did it (especially what Lee Pace said in the commentary for the film- what if someone made a joke about it and Catinca was nearby).
As I mentioned- I also watched the commentary with Lee Pace, Nico Soultanakis & 1 other writer (I forget his name.
). It was very interesting and informative. I think I am going to go back sometime soon and watch it with Tarsem Singh's commentary. I am interested in what he has to say about his film.

That's okay, you're not pervy :lol:. 7 years is not a big difference 
. I'm 5 years younger than him, is that pervy? :lmao:
And I just replied over at the PD board :lol:

Haha. I just posted over on the PD thread and then I came here and saw that your name is actually Andrea so I fixed my post. I referred to you by your screen name. Anyway, HUGE Lee fan so I'll drop by when I can and talk about him. I think there will be plenty to talk about since he seems to have so many projects coming up. I still miss Pushing Daisies, but at least he seems to be keeping busy!
Oh, and he is SUPER charming and adorkable in Pushing Daisies. His character was able to kiss the girl in Wonderfalls so it was nice on the romantic level for that and I didn't realize how nice of a... physique... he had until The Fall. Wow. Do I sound pervy. I'm really not. I just am trying to show that I have a wide range of appreciation for the man. He's also younger than me (by 7 years), so I kind of feel squicky now.
I was just looking at his filmography again and noticed that he is in the move The White Countess which I just realized yesterday I have but have never seen (I have a LOT of movies and was logging them into a database and came across it. Again, he is not listed in Netflix as an actor. Stupid Netflix). I think I will go home tonight and watch it! I'll let you know how it is, if you haven't already seen it.
Oh, and you can call me Gennie or by my screen name. Whichever!

Yeah, it's one of the special features I think. You should definitely check it out.
I haven't seen Soldier's Girl either, the violent parts of it are putting me off watching it, at least for now. I've seen Miss Pettigrew (fun movie and how come it takes her so long to choose him :lol, Wonderfalls (a long, long time ago :blush and The Good Shepherd. And I loved Pushing Daisies 
. You should check out our Lee thread at the board .
Does your netflix say any release date for Possession? I've heard March 12th but I'm not sure :look:. I just want to see it already :sigh:

Sorry I haven't been online for a few days. New year and all
No, I did not see that video. Is it a special feature? I don't remember if I checked those out or not.
Yes- I have been a fan of Lee Pace since Wonderfalls! I have not seen Soldier's Girl because it honestly does not sound like something I would be interested in. But, I have seen Miss Pettigrew Lives for a Day and thought he was very charming in that movie. I've seen The Good Shepherd and all of Pushing Daisies. I have in my Netflix queue Possession, A Single Man, The Resident & Marmaduke. As you can see- I am a pretty big fan and will seek out his projects just to watch his wonderful acting. It doesn't hurt that I think he is adorable, too!

You're welcome . Have you seen the video where they tell everyone the truth?
I think a lot of people don't know about the movie :shrug:
Have you seen Lee in other things?

I agree :nod:. The acting felt very honest.
Not gonna argue there at all. He's clearly a very well trained actor.
There's an interesting interview with Tarsem, it's really long. Here are some excerpts:
You can read the whole thing here.

I love, love, love this movie. It never once felt "acted" to me. I am sure that had a lot to do with the little girl who was obviously not an "actress". She was so natural. Every single scene felt real.
I watched this the first time by myself and loved it and I just recently watched it again with my 12 year old daughter and she loved it too.
The scene with Roy and Alexandria after she fell and broke her arm just KILLED me both times I watched it. Like I said- beautifully acted and just so real. I think Lee Pace is SEVERELY underrated as an actor. He really needs to do more movies where he can show off his acting skills!!
I fully and thoroughly recommend this movie to anyone!

I've seen The Cell, too. Tarsem is definitely good at making the visuals a part of the story :nod:.
Here's an interview with Lee Pace talking about the movie and what it was like to pretend that he couldn't walk:

i saw 'the fall' in a theater when it first came out...an interesting story...and visually beautiful.....the director of this film, tarsem singh, also directed
'the cell' which stars jennifer lopez as a pychotherapist who enters the mind of a serial killer.....it's visually exciting as well....
the big screen of a theater makes viewing both of these films a memorable experience......

The Fall
Directed by: Tarsem Singh
Roy Walker (Lee Pace), an early 20th century Hollywood stuntman,
lands in the hospital after performing a dangerous
stunt to impress his girlfriend. Bedridden, distraught,
and suicidal after losing her to the star of the film, he befriends
fellow patient Alexandria (Catinca Untaru), a young immigrant girl
with a broken arm. He enchants her with a fantastical tale about
five heroes: an Indian, an ex-slave named Otta Benga,
an Italian explosives expert called Luigi, a highly fictionalized version
of Charles Darwin accompanied by a monkey sidekick named Wallace,
and a masked bandit. An evil Governor Odious has committed an
offense against each of the five, and they all seek revenge. They unite,
and are joined by a sixth hero, a mystic. Their story is presented as
Alexandria vividly imagines it.
Although Roy develops genuine affection for Alexandria,
he also has an ulterior motive: by telling tales and gaining her trust,
he tricks her into stealing morphine from the hospital pharmacy
so he can attempt suicide.
Official website
:star: The film was shot on 26 locations over 18 countries.
:star: Tarsem says there are no special effects in the film despite its surreal looks. Everything was shot on real locations.
:star: In order to keep Catinca's reactions genuine, Tarsem asked Lee Pace to tell the entire cast and crew that he was a real-life paraplegic for the first part of shooting.
