...zeal to capture souls remains. "I do want to say things in these films," he explains. "I want audiences to come out with shards stuck in them. I don't care if people love my films or walk out, as long as they have a strong response." Gilliam is proud when he hears stories like the one the rock singer David Crosby told him: that The Fisher King had freed him from feeling guilty about his girlfriend's death in a car crash.
