The Tale (2018)

"The Tale" is Jennifer Fox's 2018 drama built around a documentary filmmaker revisiting a relationship from her teenage years. Laura Dern plays that filmmaker in the present-day timeline, while Elizabeth Debicki appears as the younger version of a figure from her past. The site carries 4 scenes from the film, with nude and topless content tied to scenes depicting that adolescent storyline. Debicki's scenes sit at the center of the film's discomfort, filmed with a plainness that matches the subject rather than any studio polish. Dern's material comes from the framing story, grounding the film's present-day half.
