Watch Tabu Best Movies

Acclaimed director Miguel Gomes returns with a sumptuous, eccentric two-part tale centered on Aurora, shown first as an impulsive, cantankerous elderly woman in present-day Lisbon. When Aurora is hospitalized, she sends her neighbor, Pilar, to pass word of her grave condition to Gian Luca, a man of which no one has ever heard her speak. Pilar's quest to fulfill her friend's wish transports us to Africa fifty years earlier, before the start of the Portuguese Colonial War. We see Aurora again, this time as the gorgeous, smoldering wife of a wealthy young farmer, involved in a forbidden love affair with Gian Luca, her husband's best friend. Their moving, poetic tale is conveyed through the older Gian Luca's suave voiceover, combined with the lush, melodious sounds of its heady, tropical setting, peppered with a soundtrack of Phil Spector songs. -- (C) Official Site

Review For Movie Tabu

It almost seems a parody of willfully obscure art-house fare. Yet it has an undertow that sucks you in as often as it strands you back on shore.
Ty Burr-Boston Globe

A kind of jigsaw puzzle, spiced up with references to "White Mischief," "Out of Africa" and "The Snows of Kilimanjaro," that will frustrate some audiences and fascinate others.
John Hartl-Seattle Times

The audience is left to imagine much of the story, though it is clear it involves love, betrayal, guilt, regret and a recurring crocodile.
Betsy Sharkey-Los Angeles Times

Portuguese director Miguel Gomes' latest film moves through different styles and eras, and proves that shooting in black and white is as versatile as it ever was.
Farran Smith Nehme-New York Post

Few films are this smart about subtly couching their allegorical aspirations within more straightforward narratives; fewer still are able to do so with such energetically inventive virtuoso style.
Ian Buckwalter-NPR

If you have the patience to watch this film develop and unfold, like some bizarre night-blooming orchid, what you'll see is not just the last movie released in 2012, but possibly the most original of them all.
Andrew O'Hehir-Salon.com

The latter part of the film recalls 1987's "White Mischief," but in Gomes's hands, the story becomes much more...the past and the present continually flow into one another...
Laura Clifford-Reeling Reviews

The black-and-white cinematography and silent-film feel are haunting and nostalgic, and Aurora's story encapsulates a broader, bittersweet truth about the perils of tinted memory.
Marc Mohan-Oregonian

For a decades-spanning, country-hopping romance on a low budget, "Tabu" looks great...it intentionally evokes in aesthetics, settings and/or plot elements such cinematic classics as "Casablanca," "The Postman Always Rings Twice" (1946) and more.
Fr. Chris Carpenter-Movie Dearest

The influences of Murnau's 1931 black-and-white Tabu are more thematic than stylistic in this uncategorizable new film
Kirk Honeycutt-honeycuttshollywood.com

If in the first half Gomes dares the audience to be bored, the second half is a cinephile's payoff.
Ann Lewinson-Boston Phoenix

Patient viewers will find some rewards with a quirky and charming film that develops a wealth of emotional depth.
Todd Jorgenson-Cinemalogue.com

A dreadfully slow screenplay in the second half undercuts the interesting handling of black and white exposition.
Ron Wilkinson-Monsters and Critics

Droll, mysterious, enchanting, and altogether singular.
Scott Tobias-AV Club

After a point, you start to forget what actual boundary-pushing cinema looks like. Well, it looks like this.
Tim Brayton-Antagony & Ecstasy

Sophisticated, lyrical and quietly moving. Patient and intelligent audience members will be the most rewarded.
Avi Offer-NYC Movie Guru
