Plot: In this romantic comedy drama, a mismatched couple (who aren't as mismatched as they believe) are brought together by fate and have to decide if they should stay together. Sarah (Amanda DeCadenet) leads a charmed life: She's a supermodel widely regarded as the most beautiful woman in the world, she's a multimillionaire, and she's married to a wealthy European aristocrat, Phillippe (Rudolph Martin), whom she loves deeply. So when Sarah hails a cab and the driver, Michael (Eric Schaeffer), tries to pick her up, it's no surprise that she's not interested. But fate keeps bringing Sarah and Michael together over the next few days, and eventually the witty and charming cabbie wears down her resistance. They end up back at Michael's apartment after sharing dinner together, and before long, the two are engaged in an extended and highly passionate lovemaking session. It turns out that not all is as it seems; Phillippe has lost interest in Sarah, sexually despite her love for him, and Michael is not just a cab driver, but a once-wealthy and famous author who chose to retreat from the limelight. Racked with guilt the next morning over her infidelity, Sarah tries to convince Michael that they should remain friends and nothing more, while he is convinced that he's met the love of his life. Eric Schaeffer wrote, produced, and directed Fall, as well as played Michael. ~ Mark Deming, All Movie Guide

After seeing just a small portion of the film on an indie channel, I felt compelled to rent then own it. Interesting characters and great sound track.

You Won't Find A More Impressive Display of Egomania
Added 7/16/2009

I won't say that Eric Schaffer doesn't have some filmmaking talent. He does. It's just that it takes a backseat to an ego that demands full-frontal nudity in the first five and final five minutes and this man is not Brad Pitt. He's not even Ben Stiller. I won't even get into him trying to pass for 20-something. It's well shot and unlike far too many films, does truly feel like NYC, but at the heart of it is this very unappealing man who wants you to believe he's irresistibly charming and could bag a supermodel (you'll have to suspend your disbelief to accept Amanda DeCadenet as a supermodel, though lovely she is) from the front seat of a cab. And if you've ever seen If Lucy Fell, you know this isn't the first time he's done this. His ego is go great he actually tosses the film's basic premise out in the final act to cement his greatness. It's on cable every other day. Save your money and catch it there.

Very non-congruent but intense story. However, I liked it.

A lot of this movie didn't make sense (non-congruent) but very passionate. You wanna see man get his heart squashed like a bug this is it. Watch out for those 10's, they'll crush you. Moral: "Be careful what you wish for."

WAY TOO SAPPY with FATTTEST SUPERMODEL EVER!
Added 11/14/2008

Really wanted to see this Movie.... Sorely DISAPPOINTED. Quite BORING. Really just an EXTENDED MUSIC VIDEO. The only humorous part was the CASTING: THIS IS THE FATTEST SUPERMODEL YOU WILL EVER SEE ON DVD(and NOT VERY ATTRACTIVE except for those BLOATED LIPS!) Sorry Schaffer, your standards must be quite lower than mine. I've dated scores of women that are far more attractive.

Surprisingly Sexy
Added 9/29/2008

Great film with so much raw emotion that it is hard to watch but I could not take my eyes off the film. I watched the film late at night (early in the morning?) and immediately had to find out more about the male lead.

I did and now I am hooked. I liked this one better than "If Lucy Fell."
