Very good tale

Attila Szász is my favorite hungarian director. He is the hungarian Tarantino. In this movie also dominate his style, very good acting, photography, quiet tension and violent grand finale. Loved this movie.

This is not was i was expecting

The story keeps you engaged, really clever use of photography and composition. Knowing a little bit of the sinopsys won't make any good, go watch it.

Incredible Noir Film!

I don't normally review movies and actually this is my first review, but wow. This has to be one of the best films I have seen in a long long time. I would even go far to say this was a masterpiece of a film. "Tall Tales" nailed the noir/Hitchcock feel while being suspenseful and intense. I was hooked the whole time and it for sure took me on an incredible journey through the 40s. Music to the cinematography was just amazing. I one hundred percent recommend watching "Tall Tales"!

I like it !

Its basic virtues - it represents a pure example of Central European film. For story, cinematography and perspectives about people in war. A story about a con man, papers annuncements, a family and a refuge, romance and the returned brutal husband , a fundamental change of behavior and a fundamental option. A film about war , defining, in precise - delicate manner , realities after it , decisions and changes.
