More Quotes from Terry Gilliam:
I like taking movie stars and letting them be something very different, ... Actors love it because it's an escape from having to be that character that the public wants them to be. I don't direct them so much as provide extra space to play in. Studios get very nervous about this. They want to hand out the same Big Mac each time, but I want to turn the Big Mac inside out.Terry Gilliam
