THE IMAGINARIUM OF DR. PARNASSUS

July 19 2010, DVD, Myrlin & Jeremy's living room, from Netflix

Utterly, utterly wonderful. I am so glad I saw this after INCEPTION, because the two bear such strong similarities overall, and to be honest, the special-effects alternate-reality sequences are vastly superior here. Of course; it's Terry MF Gilliam,

I hope that scholars eventually discover an explanation for why The Brothers Grimm was so bad. Considering how Gilliam's failures are more entertaining than plenty of directors' successes, I can't wrap my head around it. More importantly, thanks for the reminder that I really need to see Parnassus!
