Fascinating collaboration by two giants of early cinema
“Tabu” is the last film made by F.W. Murnau (“Nosferatu”) before he was killed in a car crash at age 42. For this film, he teamed up with Robert Flaherty (“Nanook of the North”) and set out for Bora Bora in 1929 to tell a story of forbidden romance using Polynesian natives for actors. Expert diver Matahi falls madly in love with Reri just before she becomes their tribe’s chosen one to be sacrificed to the gods. Reri is now untouchable, off limits to all men. If she is seduced, death will come to her and her lover. Matahi and Reri run off together. The many hardships they encounter force Matahi to dive in shark-infested waters for valuable pearls.<br /><br />Over the course of nine months, drawing inspiration from the picturesque landscapes and people of the Tahitian islands, the filmmakers fashioned an emotionally rich story of romance between a young man and woman as  civilization falls upon their primitive island. The film was originally released in a shortened and censored form. This restoration is Murnau’s approved version in its most complete form. Flaherty withdrew from the project when he and Murnau disagreed on the approach to the film. Flaherty wanted to shoot a straight documentary of native life, Murnau wanted a scripted film. Though made after the advent of sound, “Tabu” is essentially a silent picture with visuals telling the story, accompanied by an orchestral score.<br /><br />Special features on the Blu-ray release include “The Language of Shadows: Tabu”, a 15-minute documentary on the making and restoration of the film; “Tabu: Takes and Outtakes,” 26 minutes of previously unseen sequences; “Tabu: A Work in Progress,” 15 minutes of raw camera footage, with narration; and “Hunt in the South Seas,” a 1940 ethnographic short compiled from unused footage from “Tabu.”

Here is a brief synopsis of the title : Just as the film industry was converting to sound, two of the silent era's most visionary artists fled to the South Seas to collaborate on a work of pure visual beauty untainted by Hollywood's latest technical obsession. F.W. Murnau was a supreme stylist who had crafted dreamlike fables both in Germany (Faust) and the U.S. (Sunrise). Robert J. Flaherty was a groundbreaking documentarian whose Nanook of the North and Moana defined the ethnographic film movement. Over the course of nine months, they immersed themselves in Tahitian culture. Drawing inspiration from the topography and people of the surrounding islands, they (with Murnau at the helm) fashioned an emotionally rich story of the flowering romance between a young man and woman, as the shadow of civilization begins to fall upon their island paradise. Initially released in the U.S. by Paramount in a shortened and censored form, this restoration (produced by Luciano Berriatua for the Friedrich-Wilhelm-Murnau-Stiftung) represents Murnau's approved version, and is presented in the historically correct 1.15:1 aspect ratio..
