One of the most innovative and uniquely visual directors working today, Terry Gilliam has made some of the most inspiring and, at times, baffling films ever made. From the life of Hunter S.

Gilliam spoke about the film's script, his previous work and what he makes of the Internet and, most importantly, the upcoming Monty Python reunion.
