David Byrne, leader of the innovative rock group Talking Heads, whimsically pays homage to the mythical small Texas town of Virgil, a town populated by honest, sometimes slightly askew, people living out their lives and dreams in innocent dignity.

Event Date Passed
David Byrne trades in his oversized Talking Heads suit for Western wear and a black Stetson to direct, co-write And star in True Stories, a Byrne's-eye view of Virgil, Texas (population 40,000 and growing).
That view, vividly shot by cinematographer Ed Lach-man and featuring music written by Byrne and songs performed by the Talking Heads, is danceably, irresistibly festive. You'll meet such amiable, offbeat folk as: bachelor Louis (John Goodman), who posts a "Wife Wanted" sign on his lawn; the world's laziest woman (Swoosie Kurtz); a precision lawn-mower mar-ching team; and many more colorful participants in Virgil's Celebration of Specialness. Innovative, energetic, funny and special. That's the truth of True Stories.
