Parry: You start seeing floating little fat people telling you that you're on a mission from God, they'll slap you with some heavy thorizine.

Terry Gilliam-Director: The ideas were totally familiar to me. Here was a writer who saw the world through very similar eyes to mine. On top of that it was brilliantly written. It was funny, sad, surprising. It had wonderful characters, it was emotionally powerful and it had a Holy Grail in it... and I've had some experience with films with Holy Grails (says the co-director of the film Monty Python and the Holy Grail).

The front window of the video store features a poster for Gilliam's previous film "The Adventures of Baron Munchausen" (1989) and one for "Brazil" (1985).
