I woulda felt cheated if he'd spent my money on "Jabberwocky", "Brothers Grimm", maybe "The Fisher King", and most especially "Tideland". But for any of his other films ("Time Bandits", "Brazil", "The Adventures of Baron Münchhausen", "12 monkeys", "Fear & loathing in Las Vegas"), I woulda given him every single cent I'd be happening to have on me the moment he'd approach me like that. "Dr. Parnassus" looks promising enough so far, like a new "Münchhausen".
With "Brothers Grimm" and "Tideland", it felt like, doesn't his budget cover those marvelous wide lenses anymore? A true Gilliam is defined by stunning visuals and supernatural and/or sci-fi events. "Brothers Grimm" had no stunning visuals (and an exceptionally shitty translation where I am, shoulda hired Schühly as producer again for a better one), and "Tideland" seemed to have nothing at all.
"The Fisher King" was Giliam's forced reconciliation with Hollywood after clashing with the big studios over "Brazil" which resulted in sabotage and bad press for "Münchhausen". "The Fisher King" had no Gilliamesque story but it had the Gilliamesque look. "Brothers Grimm" was pretty much the opposite to "The Fisher King", Gilliamesque story but no Gilliam look.
Oh God, please let this man live to be 100 and keep making movies... I'm with donignacio2000, if I was rich, I'd totally foot the bill for any movie he wanted to make
I saw the first screening in the world of this film, we all got to ask terry questions afterwards, he was really funny and had a great shirt on. Tideland is my favourite film, it has such amazing atmosphere and its so trippy...
I traveled to NYC yesterday to see this film, (to IFC, the only theater in the tri-state area showing it)..I loved it...I did not see what all the critics were griping about (washington post bah!)..It was a beautifully shot, with a wonderful cast. I hope it catches on so that Mr. Gilliam is enabled to make more independent films.
wow he has balls.
