U.S. Trailer for ‘Imaginarium of Dr. Parnassus’
Published by Jeff Leins on October 8, 2009
Sony Picture Classics has released a domestic trailer for Terry Gilliam’s The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus. The specialty studio picked up the rights for a bargain price after no one wanted to get involved with it after a lackluster Cannes Film Festival premiere.
The film features Heath Ledger’s final performance, along with his stand-ins to complete the movie: Johnny Depp, Jude Law, and Colin Farrell. The rest of the cast consists of Christopher Plummer, Tom Waits, Lily Cole, and even an appearance by famous little person Verne Troyer.
Reviews so far have been split (an even 50% on Rotten Tomatoes), though most have noted the dazzling visual effects and imagination you’ll see in the trailer below. Gilliam fans will line up, but is anyone else interested? Are you?
The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus is due out in limited release on Christmas Day.
