Wow! That looks amazing! This might be a dumb question, but how is Heath Ledger in it? Did it just take years of editing or something?
He was working on ‘Parnassus’ when he died. His role in the movie was about 1/2 done. Terry Gilliam (the director), who was also a good friend of Heath’s, wanted to make sure his final role was seen, so, he hired Jude Law, Johnny Depp, and Collin Farrell to take on the parts that weren’t filmed. Fortunately the ‘magic mirror’ in the movie made that possible. 🙂
