Film Review:Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus
A Fantasy Film by Terry Gilliam, Monty Python Troupe, tells the tale about a traveling Theater Troupe that made a deal with the Devil long ago and a passage way in a mirror that explores ones imaginations. Staring Heath Leadger, Tom Waits, Christopher Plummer with cameos from Johnny Depp, Jude Law and Colin Farrell. The film was one of the most creative and interesting films with for Art Direction. I found Tom Waits portrayal of the Devil to be one the highlight of the film. Another would be the elephant temple and history about the curse/deal that the Devil placed. Sadly to say that this is Heath Leadger's last acting film role due to his death. The cameos appearances were obviously to replace the remaining parts for Heath but did fit very well. I'm not going to say this is his best performance but the film was great overall and looking forward to adding this to my personal collection. The camera work was amazing and the screenwriting also the character development. I found the film to be overall interesting and enjoyable for all ages. If you found this to be enjoyable also check out The Adventures of Baron Munchausen and Time Bandits.
