THE IMAGINARIUM OF DOCTOR PARNASSUS - Terry Gilliam (2009)

They were obsessed by visualization of the world of imagination. I didn't find really nothing more then a fairy tale. The world of imagination is so artificial that I didn't enjoy it. Some parts and ideas were really great, but like a whole film nothing what I'll remember. That visual mass caused that I don't know what they wanted to say (eventually show).. and makes me feel that it was skin-deep and cliche. I actually like Terry Gilliam' s films so much, but this one is a regret. If it will stay in today's London and that Vicorian-styled travelling theatre, without these unbelievable parts of amarican vision of imagination, it will be much more better. Nevertheless I think I admire Lily Cole - this small lovely creature was really like from imagination - a fairy (it was strongest then any animation because she was real). Imaginarium of doctor Parnassus is the last film of Heath Ledger who died in the middle of the shooting. At first they thought that they won´t finish this film but finally three great actors (Johnny Depp, Jude Law a Colin Farrell) decided that they will finish the film in honour of Heath Ledger.
