>I consider myself a fan of Gilliam. I don't think I've ever had more trouble staying with a film. Revolting and fascinating. Good or bad I still can't say, but I won't forget having seen it.<

Wow, that is why I could say no more after watching it. I understand now why Terry felt the need to film an introduction for the film. It did indeed have a facination factor that would not allow you turn away and at the same time, it had some discomfort levels that were...well...uncomfortable. It did indeed achive it's goal where as it left you thinking. I don't think I found any huge revalations that are going to affect the mudshark in my mythology but, I don't regret spending the time with this film. It's daring and different and that's what I look for in films these days when I want to get away from the "hollywood fourmula film".

The young ( nine years old ) actress, Jodell Ferland, was absolutely brilliant in her part.
