Terry Gilliam’s The Imaginarium Of Doctor Parnassus opens in the UK on Friday, and those lucky Britishers have gotten one last poster for the film. This one features Lily Cole, who as Parnassus’s daughter is caught up in a wager between her father (Christopher Plummer) and the Devil (Tom Waits). Click on the poster for a much bigger view, there’s a lot going on in this poster. We in the States will have to wait until Christmas Day for the film to open.
No surprise there. It seems when there are differences in the campaigns, the UK/Euro/Asia posters are ALWAYS superior to the US ones. Examples: Serenity, majority of the James Bond films, especially in the Brosnan era, not counting Goldeneye.
