Terry's Flying Circus

(4 of 4)

The missionary still has a mission: to liberate movies from the ordinary. "My problem," he says, "is I'm like a junkie. I want a good movie fix, and I never get that fix. I want to be taken into some place, some world, some idea that I haven't thought of or imagined. And it doesn't happen." Transporting viewers to that place means a lot of heavy lifting. It's a big job, but maybe Terry Gilliam is the kid to do it.
