True Stories (1986)


Warner Bros.
Directed by David Byrne
My rating: 2.5 stars out of 4
IMDb
(DVD, Warner Bros.)

Talking Head David Byrne leads us on a tour of the mythical small town of Virgil, Texas. Most people work at the big computer factory outside of town. In their spare time they shop at the mall, watch TV, have fashion shows or, in the case of John Goodman, look for a suitable wife. It's all rather kooky and silly, interspersed with MTV-style music videos and Byrne's deadpan observations.
