371- THE FISHER KING

Summary: In anticipation of Terry Gilliam's long awaited The Man Who Killed Don Quixote, we revisit 1991's THE FISHER KING, Gilliam's fantasy soaked drama starring Jeff Bridges as a disgraced shock jock who has to find a way to help a man whose tragic circumstances he feels responsible for. Also starring Robin Williams as Parry and featuring Mercedes Ruehl, Amanda Plummer and Michael Jeter, this movie showed us how wonder and magic can be found in a dark and tragic world, but how does that hold up today?
