Fear and Loathing isnt exactly cheery, and neither is 12 monkeys for that matter. <br /><br />But I think it was with Tideland where he really went into dark dark territory. Im a die hard fan, and Tideland was a tough pill to swallow, but I still appreciated that film. <br /><br />I wrote a review for Imaginarium a couple of days ago here: <br /> http://filmconnoisseur.blogspot.com/2010/01/imaginarium-of-dr-parnassus-2009.html<br /><br />And on it, I pretty much agree with everything youve said here. Imaginarium has a darkness and bitterness to it. Its angry at a world that has forgotten the entertainer that is Gilliam.Franco Macabrohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10994905312221715861noreply@blogger.com
