Terry Gilliam
I have been away for awhile, but i've still been watchin mad movies, although I havent updated this as of late. Tonights movie was Tideland. I stumbled across this and was completely in awe. This stars Jeff Bridges and a little mini-Hope Sandoval look alike together with a completely fucked up family dynamic. Also with Jennifer Tilly, lookin Fiz-iiiiner than ever. (uhhh. :/ )This movie is an experience. Shot with extremely vivid colors and angles it is breathtaking to watch. But extremely shocking and or disturbing subject matter alot of people will not find amusing. Because they are tight asses who cant appreciate art, i suppose. But this shit IS crazy. Its about a little girl who's parents are functional? drug addicts with her help. Then Tillys character bites it and Jeliza-Rose and her father move to the prairie to her grandmothers house and this is where the little girls adventures begin. This movie is shot from her perspective. No spoilers here.
As the movie was nearing a close i found myself thinking, "this would make a GREAT novel." And then, upon further research i found out it is! Thus adding to my stack of "to reads" which is becoming of epic proportions. Yay! So i will give this movie 4 out of 4 dismembered doll heads. Without a doubt.
