My favorite Gilliam film is easily The Fisher King. Probably has something to do with the fact that I studied English history in college and went into radio as a career.

Cinema geniuses almost inevitably run into trouble. Sooner or later, jealousy from other directors finds their Achilles' heel. Or producers trap them in order to gain control over what they'll do and how they'll do it. If there's one thing producers hate about film visionaries, it's the impossibility of controlling them. That's a mortal sin and it explains in good part why Gilliam encountered so many difficulties in realizing his projects. Producers didn't trust his directing style and that generated clashes where the director seldom has the upper hand.

His films are equal parts brilliantly quirky and vastly intriguing. I liked most of them. But just like Tim Burton's efforts, sometimes some self-indulgent and fantastic flights of wonderful and unique imagination (beautiful, gross and yet absurd to watch) gets lost for the sake of telling a good story. Angst wins again in most of his efforts, as a dull coda, leaving me feeling a little void when I leave the theatre. Makes it hard to want to go back. The Wizard of Oz did a lot of the same things leaving me haunted by its melancholy ending that still managed to satisfy and touch my soul. It is unforgettable.

"Hollywood in nothing but a political, closed door, back stabbing regime of morons who know nothing about the craft of storytelling." That is the opinion of those who have never tried to make movies anywhere but Hollywood. Other countries are FAR WORSE. Hollywood is about untaxed profits. If you have the potential to earn untaxed profits Hollywood will take a chance on you. Outside Hollywood it's entirely about politics and nothing else. Hollywood is business, everywhere else is pretentious wannabe auteurs who check every political and social boxes.

To be fair, even people who WORK with him say that he's chaos incarnate. Sarah Polley has written about her experiences publicly, Gilliams claim is that he didn't even have any idea, despite Eric Idle and the cinematographer backing her up. There's no denying his imagination, Time Bandits, Brazil and 12 monkeys are brilliant, some will add others, but to even have three that you wrote or co wrote and directed is quite the accomplishment. Still, some imaginative people likely should stay animators:) Those movies are practically animations given the cinematography, had he gone and done them with Studio Ghibli or something then I think a lot of trouble would have been spared.

Well consider how Hollywood has changed even since 2007 in regard to streaming services and profits compared to people making up for loss at the box offices with selling hard copy VHS or DVD like in the 80s and 90s now look at the writers strike too because the creative department is not getting their fair share either guess it gets spent on special effects and casting top stars for parts? Terry makes more art house movies David Lynch said that genre has been dead for years so if you want that sort of thing instead of action or rom comes or slasher movies (popular genres) it's a bit disappointing. I don't know about what happened with Brazil was it too dystopian because 12 Monkees was dystopian and Brad Pitt got a golden globe win for it it was taken seriously by the industry.

I respect Terry hugely for his work on Python and for Brazil. However outside of that, I have not enjoyed or had a good opinion of his directorial work on films like the Fisher King, Munchausen, and Quixote. If I were a studio, I would not back him as his films don't make money as they appeal to his taste and not to popular taste. There are some directors I admire who are not commercial, but Terry is just not as good as he thinks he is. Studios exist to make money. Artists can create, but they need to create films that make money, and if they don't care about their films being commercial, then they are just self indulgent. I think Terry falls into this category. Case in point is Quixote. A marvellous and timeless story. He gets to make his film version and it's dreadful and forgotten in an instant. I doubt that he cares. He could have made a marvellous version of that story but instead just indulged himself with meaningless nonsense. I think that's really sad. He has only himself to blame for his reputation for making non- commercial films.

The fundamental problem with Terry is that he's a straight up communist. There's a saying that "all a hammer sees are nails", which best describes his obsession with blaming capitalism for everything. And yet all his visions are expensive with a low reward possibility. The advice is that if you want to make big-budget films, you have to sell out a bit. You can't expect producers to sell your movies if you're not thinking about selling it to the masses. This is also a person that got his break at an extremely young age, made a bomb called jabberwocky, and spent the rest of his career feeling entitled and a victim at the same time. A typical walking bag of contradiction.
