A classic movie by Terry Gilliam. I can assure you it is a strange, and fascinating, adventure! :)

One of my all time favorite movies. Little Shop of Horrors is another good one.

It's on my to-do list. I feel sorry for what happened to Terry Gilliam during the making of the film...

I've also read elsewhere about some of the strange things that happened during filming. For example, I think that the crew nearly got in trouble when they cast Sarah Polley, as the Italian police suspected that they were part of a child pornography ring, or something like that.
