IAP 2010 Activity


The Life and Death of Terry Gilliam: A Film Symposium
Michael Rapa and Jennifer Williams-Rapa
No enrollment limit, no advance sign up
Participants welcome at individual sessions (series)

Known primarily as the sixth member of Monty Python, Terry Gilliam has created a very rich collection of films outside of the umbrella that is Monty Python's Flying Circus. During this month we will watch several of Terry Gilliam's films, starting with his early animation work for Monty Python and branching out into his directorial successes, his commercial failures and finally his brush with cinematic death during production of The Man who Killed Don Quixote. This series is all about the films, so bring some popcorn, tell your friends, and be ready to watch some great movies.
