The Brothers Grim - Movie Info - Jun 16, 2004 21:06
Directed by: Terry Gilliam (12 Monkeys, Brazil, Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas)
Terry was also one of the members of Monty Python, however he was the troupes only American member born in Minnesota.

Starring: Matt Damon (Will Grimm), Heath Ledger (Jake Grimm), Monica Bellucci (The Evil Queen), Jonathan Pryce (Delatombe), Lena Headey (Angelika), Peter Stormare (Cavaldi), Roger Ashton-Griffiths (Mayor), Mackenzie Crook, Julian Bleach, Tomas Hanak, Bruce MacEwen, Richard Ridings, Miroslav Taborsky, Jan Unger (Gregor), Jakub Zindulka

This film is very loosely based upon the real lives of Jacob Ludwig Carl Grimm (1785-1863) and Wilhelm Carl Grimm (1786-1859), who became famous for the fairy tales they committed to paper.
Brothers Jake (Ledger) and Will Grimm (Damon), renowned collectors of folklore, have made a career out of traveling from village to village pretending to rid them of " enchanted" creatures.
Their bluff is called, however, when they are forced by Napoleon' s French government to investigate a haunted forest where girls have been disappearing mysteriously. What they discover leads to a series of adventures involving an actual evil (and immortal) sorceress (Bellucci) (who uses the blood of virgin girls to keep her beauty from fading) that mirrors that of mythology and the fables that the Brothers Grimm would eventually become famous for... (Pryce and Williams play two villainous characters called Delatombe and Cavaldi).

Possible release date: February 2005
