Robin's second collaboration with Terry Gilliam involves a grungy New York city where a disgraced DJ played by Jeff Bridges befriends Robin Williams who plays a homeless man who believes he is a knight on a mission from god to find the holy grail.
It's our 300th episode and we honor a listener request for this milestone. The Fisher King (1991) could not be made today–not because of politics or cultural changes, but because it's impossible to neatly classify. A love story, a tale of redemption, a disturbing study of psychosis, a romantic comedy, and an Artthurian quest, the film combines genres in ways that some audiences–or at least producers–might not appreciate. But the film is hilarious, frightening, and ultimately affirming of its two lead characters' decisions to abandon their despair and find meaning in their lives.

We talk about a director straight from Monty Python, Terry Gilliam
This week on the Exciting & New podcast, Jason, Andy and Dana welcome Jim back on the podcast as we discuss the 1985 surreal comedy Brazi. This one was a divisive one (at least from the point of veiw of one person). A little too Monty Python for some, a little too batshit crazy for others. Robert DeNiro for some reason shows up. There's a Hobbit (or is he an Android) and Super Mario shows up. This move was a weird one. Apparently this is part 2 of Terry Gilliam's "Trilogy of Imagination". If this is what he is imagining, I feel sorry for this guy when he closes his eyes to go to sleep at night. Anyway, the podcast is just about as weird as the movie we are discussing. Enjoy!
This week, we're not dead, we're pining for Python! This episode emphasizes that if you only know “Holy Grail”, you are really missing out on the full history, spectrum, and scope of everything those Monty Python boys (and girls! Let's not forget Carol Cleveland and the lovely Aimi MacDonald!) gave us as outrageous comedy from before Flying Circus and since.Today's root beer is IBC.

Although science fiction cinema did not begin in the USA it seems that by the 1950s Hollywood had tapped into the ravenous appetite the public had for the genre. The period is now known as the Golden Age of Science Fiction with an array of films ranging in style, topic and quality. Themes of space travel, alien invasion, nuclear fears and cold war paranoia are strewn across the decade. Meanwhile in Czechoslovakia Karel Zamen was working on making some cinematic masterpieces made for children based on the works of Jules Verne and other late 19th century authors. In 1958 he made the film Invention for Destruction based on Verne's novel Facing the Flag. In 1961 this was dubbed in English and retitled The Fabulous World of Jules Verne and distributed by Warner Bros. The visual style is based on late 19th century etchings and illustrations of Verne's novels which you can take a look at on this Instagram post. The film went on not only to inspire many prominent filmmakers like Hayao Miyazaki, Tim Burton and Terry Gilliam but also a cohort of writers who cite his film as being the origin for the style of steampunk science fiction. I spoke to two wonderful guests to understand the historical context and ongoing influence of the film. Thomas Lamarre is a Professor of Film, Media, and East Asian Languages and Civilisations at the University of Chicago. He is also the author of the Steam Punk cinema chapter in the Oxford Handbook of New Science Fiction Cinemas. Mary Heimann is Professor of Modern History at Cardiff University. She is also the author of the book Czechoslovakia: The State that Failed.

SEASON 3 EPISODE 120: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN A-Block (1:45) SPECIAL COMMENT: We’ve all known it would come to this; we’ve all WARNED it would come to this; we’ve all PREDICTED they’d try to ease the knife in slowly, they’d take the boiling frog route, and here it comes. It’s in every piece of political science fiction from "1984" to "Brazil" to "V For Vendetta." And it is now real: if everything Trump does deserves criticism and gets criticism there is only one thing for Trump and his gang to do: prosecute criticism of Trump and claim those WHO criticize him are aiding and abetting terrorists. The ultimate Thought Crime was given voice by no less a figure than Trump's Counterterrorism Director, who, since Trump found the worst possible person to do each job (and bin Laden is dead) is Sebastian Gorka. The threat is connected to the push to send not just immigrants to rot in a For-Profit El Salvador Rendition Center, but American citizens too, especially those who standup to Trump's attempt to purge Hispanics from this country. Axios reports that one of the other potential new Orwellian crimes would be advising detainees of their rights. If that's not directed at AOC I don't know what could be. B-Block (25:20) THE WORST PERSONS IN THE WORLD: Derrick Van Orden attacks Wisconsin's governor because Van Orden thinks Milwaukee kids are stupid - and he misspells the word "how" in his post. Brian Kilmeade's Hegseth spoiler alert: he calls him "former secretary." And we are all very proud here that one of 'our own' has reduced Bill Maher to graffiti. Further details on "My Dinner With Adolf." C-Block (37:45) THINGS I PROMISED NOT TO TELL: I had literally forgotten - until I literally worked through the neighborhood - that I made my Broadway singing and dancing debut seven years ago. I mean literally, on stage, during an actual Broadway show. If it made that much of an impression on me, imagine how bored the audience was! See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

12 Monkeys cumple 30 años Hace 30 años Terry Gilliam, director surgido del proyecto Monty Python, artífice de maravillas como Brasil y Las aventuras del Barón Munchausen, recibió un encargo gigantesco: dirigir una película de nombre intrigante, 12 Monkeys, que contaría la historia de un hombre que va y viene en el tiempo, para tratar de entender las razones de una pandemia que aniquilará al 99% de la población humana. Afortunadamente Gilliam aceptó y con Bruce Willis y Madeleine Stowe a bordo, concretó después de un rodaje muy accidentado con presupuesto muy justo, una de las mejores películas de ciencia ficción distópica que se hayan filmado. Convertida hoy en película de culto, merecedora de estudios y análisis apasionados, 12 Monkeys cumple 30 años de haber sido, además, una película muy exitosa en taquilla. Para celebrar ese cumpleaños invitamos a hablar de la película a Leonora Milán, científica, comunicadora, locutora, melómana, una de las cabezas del exitoso podcast Mándarax y entusiasta de la filmografía de Terry Gilliam.

Terry Gilliam is one of the world's most imaginative and original directors. He first made his mark more than 50 years ago, with the animated opening sequence of Monty Python's Flying Circus, when a giant foot stomped on the titles with a burst of flatulence. That spirit of mischief, fun and creative adventure has informed many of his films: they include Time Bandits, Brazil, The Fisher King and The Adventures of Baron Munchausen, working with stars such as Matt Damon, Uma Thurman, Brad Pitt and Robin Williams. He'd be the first to admit that life as a film maker can be complicated: he's faced natural disasters, budget overruns and clashes with studio executives. But he has no plans to retire: now in his 85th year he's working on a new film called Carnival at the End of Days starring Johnny Depp as Satan and Jeff Bridges as God.Terry's list of musical passions includes Richard Strauss, Berlioz and Delius.
Gonzo Hellscape: Terry Gilliam's Fear & Loathing in Las Vegas In 1998 Director Terry Gilliam - a director whose cinematic career has been fraught with difficulty on the level of Job (see 2002s Lost in La Mancha) was finally successful in bringing to the screen Hunter S. Thompson's 1971 Classic roman á clef of excess, paranoia, idealism, and disappointment, Fear & Loathing in Las Vegas: A Savage Journey to the Heart of the American Dream. A polariizing film upon its release in 1998, Giliam's interpretation of Thompson's 1971 vision is both awe-inspiring and troubling. There is a tremendous amount to admire in this film while at the same time there is a tremendous amount to be critical of . . . We tackle both perspectives and struggle to find some greater understanding of the late 60s, early 70s, and pain and disappointment of the 2nd decade of a new millennium. It's an interesting and volatile discussion between two friends. Take a listen and let us know what yout think about our reaction to Thompson's vision as rendered through the mind of Terry Gilliam and the equally outrageous and powerful performances of stars Johnny Depp (as Thompson) and Benicio Del Toro (as Chicano activist Oscar Zeta Acosta - the 300lb Samoan of Thompson's writing).

Two movies here where audiences went in expecting one thing, and might just have got another. 1991's The Fisher King though for a time was going to be a Disney movie, before the studio decided it was too dark. Directors such as Steven Spielberg and James Cameron were mentioned, before Terry Gilliam - coming off the back of a commercial flop - decided to break all three of his conditions for taking on a film. Director Joe Carnahan meanwhile was coming off his big studio movie - The A-Team - when he decided he wanted to pivot to something smaller. He chose The Grey, a film he developed, and which would be sold off the back of imagery of Liam Neeson getting ready to punch a wolf. That, though, wasn't the full picture... Stories of both are told in this episode. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Dante Ferretti"Bellezza imperfetta"Io e PasoliniA cura di David MiliozziEdizioni Pendragonwww.pendragon.itDante Ferretti, tre premi Oscar, tra i più celebri scenografi al mondo, racconta il suo lungo sodalizio professionale e umano con Pier Paolo Pasolini, cominciato da giovanissimo sul set de Il Vangelo secondo Matteo e terminato il 2 novembre 1975, quando il cadavere martoriato del grande poeta e pensatore fu ritrovato all'idroscalo di Ostia. Ripercorrendo il lungo tratto di carriera che ha condiviso con Pasolini, l'autore ci mostra anche gli straordinari bozzetti delle scenografie che hanno dato forma all'immaginario filmico pasoliniano, confrontandoli con i fotogrammi degli stessi film.Consegnandoci un ritratto scanzonato e crepuscolare di un uomo che possedeva il raro dono di capire il suo tempo, insieme al sapore di un'epoca irripetibile del cinema italiano e internazionale (sfilano davanti ai nostri occhi Federico Fellini, Elio Petri, Maria Callas, Martin Scorsese, Tim Burton e tanti altri), queste pagine ci rivelano il volto inedito di un artista immenso, capace, sul set e nella vita, di investire le persone che gli erano accanto di un'energia umana e intellettuale tanto potente da cambiarle per sempre.Dante Ferretti (Macerata, 1943) ha avuto una carriera strepitosa che iniziò, ventenne, proprio con Pier Paolo Pasolini, di cui fu aiuto scenografo per Il Vangelo secondo Matteo (1964), Uccellacci e uccellini (1966) e Edipo re (1967); con lui firmò la sua prima scenografia, Medea (1970), e da quel momento Pasolini lo volle al suo fianco fino al suo ultimo film, Salò o le 120 giornate di Sodoma (1975). Ferretti ha lavorato con i più importanti registi italiani – Luigi Comencini, Marco Bellocchio, Elio Petri, Liliana Cavani, Marco Ferreri, Ettore Scola, Franco Zeffirelli –, e in particolare con Federico Fellini, per cui è stato aiuto scenografo nel Fellini Satyricon del 1969 e scenografo in cinque film, fino all'ultima opera cinematografica del maestro riminese, La voce della Luna (1990). I geniali, visionari mondi da lui creati per Il nome della rosa (1986) e Le avventure del barone di Munchausen (1988), per cui ricevette la prima nomination all'Oscar, lo hanno reso celebre a Hollywood e nel mondo, dando avvio a un impressionante elenco di collaborazioni internazionali – tra gli altri, Terry Gilliam, Neil Jordan, Anthony Minghella, Brian De Palma, Martin Brest, Julie Taymor, Tim Burton, Kenneth Branagh – e alla speciale affinità creativa con Martin Scorsese, per cui ha firmato le scenografie di ben nove film da L'età dell'innocenza (1993) a Silence (2016).

Bong Joon Ho (Snowpiercer, The Host) returns from his Oscar triumph five years ago with his first directorial effort since his worldwide smash Parasite, which remains the ONLY foreign language film to ever win the Oscar for Best Picture. This time around, he's directing a high concept sci-fi comedy adventure taking place in the future focusing on Mickey (Robert Pattinson) who works as an "Expendable" for a growing organization looking to colonize a snowy desolate planet. His job entails being used as a tester of various hostile environments, new viruses, potential vaccines, and any number of deadly situations which can occur on said planet. The key to his survival is that he doesn't survive most of these ordeals....they have the technology to simply clone him again to restart the process. :o And hilarity ensues! Also among this stacked cast are Naomi Ackie, Mark Ruffalo, Toni Collette, and Steven Yuen. For Mickey, it's time to find out if the 17th time's the Charm. ;) Host & Editor: Geoff GershonProducer: Marlene GershonSend us a texthttps://livingforthecinema.com/Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/Living-for-the-Cinema-Podcast-101167838847578Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/livingforthecinema/Letterboxd:https://letterboxd.com/Living4Cinema/
In Cineversary podcast episode #80, host Erik Martin lifts a golden chalice to toast the golden anniversary of Monty Python and the Holy Grail, directed by Terry Gilliam and Terry Jones. Joining him on this quest is Darl Larsen, a film and animation professor at Brigham Young University and author of A Book About the Film Monty Python and the Holy Grail. Together, they collect several nice and inexpensive shrubberies, decipher obscure Swedish subtitles, and try to convince listeners that they're not quite dead as they explore why this film still matters 50 years later.Learn more about the Cineversary podcast at www.cineversary.com and email show comments or suggestions to cineversarypodcast@gmail.com.
James Cameron-Wilson says that #1 Mickey 17, from Parasite's Bong Joon Ho, is a sci-fi film about replicated human beings in the vein of Terry Gilliam which seems terribly familiar. He found the lead irritating and thought it entirely humourless. #3 Marching Powder proved to James's surprise that he IS shockable after all. Another Nick Love-Danny Dyer collaboration about a coke addict who loves violence, it's a state-of-the-nation black comedy which is massively politically incorrect and offensive. Yet there's no denying it's well made and often witty. On Amazon Prime Sing Sing, thrice-Oscar-nominated, is about the power of theatre to heal. It is funny and deeply moving and James recommends it highly. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
Hiatus continues. Not for much longer, though. Just long enough to catch people up on our old material so they can understand the full flower of the story we're trying to tell since Big Streaming wanted to deny you all. Here's Conclave #6, featuring Professor Andrea taking us on a journey through time and space as we explore her favorite fantasy film, 1981's "Time Bandits" -- otherwise known as "the film that made Terry Gilliam and almost broke George Harrison."

Our "In The March Of Madness" month continues as, this week, we're going to be talking about Terry Gilliam's 1991 film, The Fisher King. Jeff Bridges plays Jack Lucas who was once a rich, famous and egotistical New York City shock jock. Jack goes on a downward spiral, both personally and professionally, after a glib comment he makes to one of his regular callers results in that caller going on a murder spree at a trendy downtown bar. Three years later, when Jack hits rock bottom and is close to suicide, he is saved by a seemingly crazy and homeless man named Parry (Robin WIlliams). Parry does have mental health issues, namely hallucinations centered around the story of the Fisher King, and an obsession with obtaining the Holy Grail. After Jack learns of Parry's own background and the reason he got to where he is, Jack feels the need to be part of Parry's salvation. Listen in and hear what we thought of it.

From the mind of Terry Gilliam, comes a historical fantasy adventure where an old heroic man must take flight from a city under siege to find his old heroic friends to perform one last adventure. The film explores ideas of imagination, aging, death, and whimsical storytelling. The Adventures of Baron Munchausen goes down as a hidden gem of a movie that otherwise could have easily gone unnoticed in the Travolting saga.

Welcome back to Not A Bomb! This is the podcast where we explore some of cinema's biggest box failures and decide if they deserve a second chance.On this week's episode of Not A Bomb, Troy, and Brad are happy to welcome back to the show Sammy from the GGTMC to discuss the fantasy adventure film - The Adventures of Baron Munchausen. As a four-time Academy Award-nominated film, The Adventures of Baron Munchausen is one of the more decorated movies discussed on the show. Sadly, those nominations did not translate to box office success, and The Adventures of Baron Munchausen failed to recoup the $46 million budget. Does the third film of the “Trilogy of Imagination” deserve a second look? Or does this tall tale need to explode and be forgotten? Listen and find out!The Adventures of Baron Munchausen is directed by Terry Gilliam and stars John Neville, Eric Idle, Sarah Polley, Oliver Reed, Uma Thurman, Johnathan Pryce, and Valentina Cortese.Not A Bomb just launched new designs in our Merch store!

The tremendous Amy Seeley is back and this time the subject is right in her wheelhouse: COMEDY. We talk the legendary work of the absurdly brilliant Monty Python, whose "Flying Circus" and subsequent movies dominated the 70s. We talk our favorite performers, favorite sketches, favorite lines, and favorite movies. We also get into a discussion of their influence, and talk a bit about comedy in general. It's a most excellent 90 minutes, so strap in for something completely different! TUNE IN!
We're back with another Ryan/Denali Bonus review.... This time with Terry Gilliam's TIME BANDITS (1981)! Forget what we've said before, THIS movie is an absolute fever dream. Nothing makes sense, nothing seems to matter, and we're not entirely sure if this is even a movie. Also discussed: Time travel and giving King Arthur a DVD box set of Lost Thanks for stopping by!
It's time to open your mind and let your imagination run wild, as we cover The Adventures of Baron Munchausen, the near-perfect film from Terry Gilliam, starring John Neville, Sarah Polley, Eric Idle, Winston Dennis, Charles McKeown, Jack Purvis, Jonathan Pryce, Uma Thurman, and the incredible Oliver Reed! (Oh, and a rather weird cameo from Robin Williams.)
ans cet épisode Andréa Brusque vous parle d'un film déjà culte avant même d'être tourné. Pendant deux décennies, Terry Gilliam, son réalisateur, s'est acharné à le produire. Mais les problèmes n'ont pas arrêté de s'accumuler, année après année, au point de donner naissance à une légende urbaine. Ce film a acquis la réputation de projet impossible… voire maudit. Son nom : L'homme qui tua Don Quichotte . Des premières ébauches de scénario à sa sortie en salle, découvrez son fabuleux destin. Une production à rude épreuve Dès les années 90, Terry Gilliam a l'idée d'adapter le roman de Cervantès au cinéma. Il rêve du chevalier à la triste figure, féru de romans médiévaux, et de ses péripéties dans l'Espagne de la fin du 16ème siècle. Le réalisateur s'est déjà fait connaître du grand public avec des films comme Monthy Python : Sacré Graal!, L'armée des douze singes ou encore Las Vegas Parano. Il envisage alors une grosse production pour ce prochain long-métrage et estime son budget à 60 millions de dollars. Mais malgré la renommé de Terry Gilliam, et encore plus, celle de Don Quichotte, les producteurs américains ne sont pas emballés. Un roman espagnol du 17ème siècle, un vieillard qui se prend pour un chevalier, de faux rêves de grandeur et d'héroïsme : voilà qui promet… Écoutez nos autres épisodes : Les plus grands braquages de l'histoire Un podcast Bababam Originals Ecriture : Elie Olivennes Voix : Andréa Brusque Montage : Célia Brondeau, Antoine Berry Roger Première diffusion : 7 février 2023.

Send us a textELEMENTWelcome to a new year and a new director as TGTPTU's latest 4x4 reaches its fourth of four directors: Lars Von Trier. We start with his first wide-release feature THE ELEMENT OF CRIME (1984). And so begins our wrap-up of Season 13 with water, water everywhere, but not a drop to drink… Set in a post-catastrophe Europe (as will the Dane's next two films forming his first thematic trilogy: Europa), The Element of Crime follows the memories under hypnotism of an investigator named Fisher who employs the methodology of his now disgraced mentor, namely, the-now-clichéd-but-then-fairly-metafictionally-fresh-idea-of-following-in-a-psychopathic-criminal's-footsteps, to enter their thinking. And so begins a degeneration and headaches and sex atop the hood of a vehicle in order to track down the Lotto Killer, a serial murderer who targets young girls who sell lotto tickets and who might be closer than Fisher realizes. Paired with next week's Dancer in the Dark (the final film of LVT's second trilogy) which will utilize an entirely different cinematic language, The Element of Crime is beautifully shot as it follows Fisher throughout the flooded landscapes of Europe lit by sodium light that create a sepia tone (and, in some cases, LVT will cheat by shooting in black-and-white and colorizing). The script originally focused on three encounters Fisher has with the fascistic police chief Kramer played by Jerold Wells, a British actor perhaps best known for his work with Terry Gilliam ending with Time Bandits (Gilliam's Brazil with its own pneumatic tube future will come out the following year), but the world was expanded as LVT and his team of two Thomas's (cinematographer Tom Elling, and editor and possible horse murderer Tómas Gislason) found new locations such as sewers and dilapidated buildings to expand Fisher's search as he finds himself inside the pattern to the killings. Listen in and get the skinny on LVT's challenge to Steven Spielberg and masturbating monkeys from Thomas; hear about Ken's beef with a German post-punk band ruining his joke; and scream along silently with Jack in frustration about the ongoing technical issues the once-and-future provisional co-host Ryan reliably brings to being unreliable. The host unanimously agree: a beautifully shot movie with an amazing final image. Are you there? You can wake me up now. Are you there?...

Fans of Monty Python may know Terry Gilliam as the animator of their bizarre cartoons featured on the show. Or as the only American born member of the legendary troupe. But as his career progressed, Gilliam took his imaginative talents to the director's chair. His visually stunning and sometimes uncomfortable films thrust you into dream-like worlds and explored important characteristics of society. From the time-hopping child view of Time Bandits, to the award winning exploration of class structure in Brazil, Gilliam takes you on a brain trip with each of his tales. If it weren't for his terrible luck during productions, we may have even more to explore. This is Terry Gilliam.

Being a cultural Christian used to be an insult, but more people are embracing the label with pride. The Holy Post crew unpacks what's behind the growing affection for cultural Christianity, and they explain why it's more important than ever to embrace the weird, supernatural beliefs of the faith. Historian Kristen Kobes Du Mez is back to discuss her new documentary, “For Our Daughters,” about the sexual abuse scandals that have shaken the faith of many in the church. She sees a link between the theology and culture that created and covered-up sexual abuse in the church, and the rise of political idolatry within evangelicalism. Also this week—hurricanes are now political, and a Haitian pastor in New Hampshire with a sense of humor invites pets to his church.
