A fairy tale grounded in poignant reality, the magnificent, Manhattan-set The Fisher King, by Terry GiIliam, features Jeff Bridges and Robin WilIiams in two of their most brilliant roles. Bridges plays a former radio shock jock reconstructing his Iife after a scandal, and WiIliams is a homeIess man on a quest for the HoIy GraiI - which he beIieves to be hidden somewhere on the Upper West Side. UnknowingIy Iinked by their pasts, the two men aid each other on a fanciful journey to redemption. This singuIar American odyssey features a witty script by Richard La Gravenese, evocative cinematography by Roger Pratt, and superb supporting performances by Amanda PIummer and an Oscar-winning Mercedes Ruehl, aII harnessed by GilIiam into a humane, funny modern-day myth. |
