Writer-director Terry Gilliam discusses the unique nature of his latest film, The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus, in a new clip, "Behind the Mirror," exclusive to Yahoo Movies UK. In the clip, Gilliam describes Imaginarium as a "compendium" of ideas and themes that he's "played with" in other films.
It's magical. It's very moving, I think it's touching, it's funny. It's all sorts of things. So, in many ways, both the most mature thing I've done and the most juvenile thing I've done.
Producer Amy Gilliam also provides commentary, along with several of the film's stars, including Christopher Plummer and Lily Cole.
In conjunction with the clip, a new poster has also been released. Previous posters have spotlighted the various incarnations of Tony, as played by Colin Farrell, Johnny Depp, Jude Law and the late Heath Ledger, but the latest poster features Cole as Valentina in a whimsical design.

Variety reports that Heath Ledger's final movie, The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus, will have its U.S. premiere on October 11 at the close of the Hamptons Film Festival. The movie will then move to wide release on Christmas Day. It's the completion of a long road for Parnassus, which premiered in May at the Cannes Film Festival but didn't receive American distribution until recently.
Ledger was filming the movie when he died unexpectedly in January 2008. Director Terry Gilliam (Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, Brazil) then enlisted the help of Johnny Depp, Colin Farrell, and Jude Law, who stepped in to complete Ledger's role. They will represent transformations of Ledger's character, an enigmatic outsider who joins the traveling troupe of Dr. Parnassus and gives his audiences visions of alternate realities.
Also starring in the movie are Verne Troyer (aka Mini Me), Lily Cole, and veteran Christopher Plummer in the title role.
