Albert Lanier steps into Gilliam's IMAGINARIUM OF DOCTOR PARNASSUS!

HIFF 29: YOU MAY SAY I'M A DREAMER
by Albert Lanier

When I was a child, I used to always hear from adults-whether teachers or other older authority figures I had no use for-that I should "use my imagination."

I always found that an interesting phrase and as a kid I would have all kinds of fantastical dreams and fantasies which I will not go into detail about here.

Quint chats with Terry Gilliam about THE IMAGINARIUM OF DR. PARNASSUS, WATCHMEN, Pixar, Ledger and much more!

Ahoy, squirts! Quint here. This interview was the one I was looking forward to the most from my entire Comic-Con line-up. First of all, I’m a big Terry Gilliam geek. Who didn’t grow up with Python and TIME BANDITS? So, there’s that and I’ve also seen THE IMAGINARIUM OF DR. PARNASSUS, a movie I had a lot to talk about anyway.

New Gilliam images! Posters for IMAGINARIUM OF DR. PARNASSUS!

Ahoy, squirts! Quint here. Even before the tragic death of Heath Ledger, this film was high on my radar. In fact, if circumstances had been different I would have been on this set in February 08. I was in talks to come visit and as a life-long fan I was psyched to see Terry Gilliam work. Understandably, everything changed when the production was faced with figuring out how to proceed after Ledger's death.
