Terry Gilliam, the maverick director of Time Bandits, Brazil, The Fisher King, Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas and most recently, The Imaginarium of Dr Parnassus, came to fame for his work with Monty Python but he always wanted to direct. The Adventures of Baron Munchausen gave him the reputation of going over budget - although it was the one and only time.

I LOVED DR. PARNASSUS for all the reasons Terry mentioned. It's very much a positive amalgamation of almost everything he's done, also narratively and technically it's very well crafted and beautiful to watch. Been a big fan ever since having my mind blown in 86 after viewing an early screening of Brazil. From Munchausen, my two favorites Fisher KIng & 12 Monkeys to the great Fear & Loathing to Tideland.

The Imaginarium of Dr. Parnassas is one of my favorite films of all time.

[@danwest9900]

Terry Gilliam is my favorite director ever. He is a genius of visual arts. Brilliant!!!

[@spiritdancer36]

Terry Gilliam is absolutely one of my favorite directors ever. I always feel like his work is ahead of its time. Thank you for being you Sir. Your movies live in my head rent free.

[@henrifischer1119]

"technology is not ultimately why we go to the movies." it's because of creativity

[@rolandkunzjr263]

The Fisher King Is One Of My All Time Favourite Movies.

[@gp3256]

Thank you Terry for being you. Brazil changed my life.

[@hankworden3850]

How?

[@zapfanzapfan]

Love "12 Monkeys", thought about that one when the pandemic started. Münchhausen, Time Bandits, Lost in La Mancha, love them. If he had directed Harry Potter then maybe I would have liked it.

[@gp3256]

Thank you Terry . You made me believe in artistry growing up in South Dakota 🌟🌟🌟

[@michaelp.9921]

Interesting doc that provides some helpful insight into Mr. Gilliam and his work. Thank you for sharing this, 3DD and Little Dot.

[@grokeffer6226]

Although he might be a bit too quirky for some people, I've always found Mr. Gilliam's work to be interesting and enjoyable.

[@rustyrelicsfarm2406]

Especially his animations in Monty Python.

Genuine Mind 🥰

[@dirkdiggler7814]

They didn't even talk about Tideland one of his best movies.

[@joelhammer3538]

You know i couldnt watch that movie🤔

[@alonzotanner1226]

I heard he’s been living in England since the 80s. Surprised he hasn’t picked up an accent yet. Love this guy

[@stifledvoice]

Terry is an acquired taste that hasn't aged too well. He sure has had a "hit or miss" track record. His films seem like clever eye candy and star vanity projects with a little gut punch of messaging sprinkled in somewhere in the film. Of course, the old me doesn't see anything the same as the 1980's-90's pot smoking wanna-be-intellectual me. Of course I'd love to see another Brazil. I was so amped about Zero Theorem until I saw it and found it to be a bit of a muddled mess. Maybe in late career he could make one more gem like a perfectly aged bottle of cognac.

[@rustyrelicsfarm2406]

I love his work in Monty Python his work in Monty Python is very underrated.

[@tangerinesarebetterthanora7060]

His work is nauseating in an appealing way.

[@hankworden3850]

So far You have a miss or miss track record...

[@banditodwardo4028]

this is what makes me sad about the latest generation of people, who have always had high speed internet since the day they were born, and they can't possibly even really imagine a world without it. So how are the latest generation of people supposed to behave when they have been got since day one.....indoctrinated by tech....its bad enough for me, born mid eighties, glued to screens, thinking that that's reality....

[@chronosschiron]

hes wrong at end , he needs see how real cg can be...now wiht literally my 10 year old pc ...see , the future always comes from those , that find the way to use the tools they have tobring life to what it is they envision.
