Gilliam | 1998 | USA | 35mm

5th or 6th watch – first time in cinema.

One of my first cinema loves, and I fell in love anew seeing it on the big screen with an audience of God’s own prototypes – too weird to live and too rare to die. A once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to see this film and then walk across the street to my favourite bar, which takes its name from this story: Bat Country. A flash in the pan of its ingredients, it’s another film that I can’t imagine ever not loving.
