The Tall Man Page #6

Synopsis: This film is about a legend that has been started by the town folk of Cold Rock. Since the children in the town have been going missing, people have said it's an entity known as 'The Tall Man' who has been taking them. Julia Denning (Jssica Biel) is the local nurse whose husband died years earlier. She is soon personally involved as her child is taken. She tries to track down where the child is taken, but finds that there's more to what's happening than she knew. The towns-folk start to turn on her and the truth comes out. But there's still more to the story - who is 'The Tall Man'? And what is the truth behind the disappearances?

I want to please her.

My third mother loves me,

and I love my third mother.

LADY:
You're going to be late for art class.

I'll be right there.

My world has changed.

I try to follow its rules.

It's a beautiful world, my new mother says.

(CHILDREN LAUGHING)

She tells me to hang on, that I'm doing well,

that I'll get used to it with time.

WOMAN:
Jeffrey.

Jeffrey, come on.

Come on, honey.

We're going to be late.

JENNY:
I'm not like the others.

I guess they've forgotten.

I can't

Every morning,

I wake up to the same thought of

giving it all up and running back home,

but I remind myself I wanted this life.

I wanted it. I made it happen.

I guess it's better this way, right?

Right?

Right?

(CHILDREN PLAYING)
