		The ultimate 3-behaviour of the Baron is pulling himself out of the water by pulling his own hairs; this symbolizes the American dream 'from rags to riches'.
		The Baron is very calculating: he seeks his old team members not because he wants to see his friends again but because he has taken up a new challenge for which he needs his 'human resources' again ('my dear friends').

		Goofs: Crew or equipment visible: During the long pull-back shot which shows how deep in the Sultan's camp the Baron is being held, extras quickly move together as the camera moves back to cover the dolly track on the ground, but frequently do not succeed.
		Filled with a spirit of adventure, and a deftness far too rare these days, it is the delightful tale of the adventurous life of Baron Munchausen.

		Overall, I was delighted, although would have preferred that the Baron himself be “in his own time,” so to speak, at his peak of youth and vigor and adventures, rather than railing against the Age of Reason as he does.
		Without her, the Baron would never have accomplished his mission of saving the town.
		Because the Baron’s servants are my favorite characters, it’s no fun for me to see them old and decrepit, except for Albrecht, who seems the same except for being bald.

		The Baron was understandably incensed at the appropriation of his own tall tales, and the connection of his good name to tales which made him seem to be a liar or a lunatic.
		Jackson sees the Baron as a fool, a liar, or a madman, while the Baron considers Jackson to be a sign of things to come, if he and his tales should ever pass from the world.
		Like Don Quixote, the Baron is both laughable and admirable at the same time, and the film's perspective is without a doubt told from the perspective of the Baron's view of reality.

	Adventures of Baron Munchhausen
		The Adventures of Baron Munchausen is a richly detailed interpretation of the outlandishly imagined and fabricated exploits of the legendary eighteenth-century German adventurer and storyteller.
		The opening play within the film and the siege of the city are a tale unto themselves, followed by the next delightful adventure, the tour of the Grand Turk's harem.
		After a return to the besieged present during which a fantastic hot air balloon is fabricated to send the Baron and young companion Sally Salt on a journey to secure help to relieve the siege, the audience is treated to an hilarious visit to the moon.

		Thuggee (or tuggee) (from the Sanskrit root sthag (Pali, thak), to conceal, mainly applied to fraudulent concealment) was an Indian cult worshipping Kali whose members were known as Thugs.
		Gilliam refers to this film as the second of a trilogy of movies, including Time Bandits (1981) and The Adventures of Baron Munchausen (1989).
		Cinematically, the film has been viewed as a dark parody of science fiction adventure films (the film has been specifically referred to as lampooning Star Wars, but the same sentiment could also apply to similar themed works that came after, such as The Matrix).

		The Baron's outlandish tales, though hard to find in published form, tickled readers long before the Terry Gilliam film of a few years ago.
		Dozens of the Baron's brief anecdotes of his impossible exploits while traveling, hunting, at court or at war rival the best of Davy Crockett, as when the nobleman tells of riding a cannonball or pulling a wolf inside out.
		Told in the first-person, the tale relates the Baron's improbable adventures in a voice that is more practical than boastful.

		In a town besieged by murderous enemies, a traveling company is putting on a stage show about the apocryphal Baron Munchausen, who, with his motley crew of servants, supposedly circled the globe and the universe, following each bizarre adventure with one even more strange and ludicrous.
		But then a man appears at the theater claiming to be the real Baron, and to prove it, he goes off on one final journey to save the town, chased all along the way by the winged specter of death.
		Gilliam's special effects bonanza is a modern retelling of THE WIZARD OF OZ, a fabulous adventure filled with daring feats, preposterous nonsense, danger galore, and the overall belief that a world without fantasy is a sad world indeed.

		A remake of the classic story where Baron Munchausen must prove his reputation as one of history's most remarkable adventurers, or be seen as one of the greatest liars of all time.
		The Baron himself puts James Bond to shame as the epitomy of unflappable British charm and I especially love Oliver Reed's turn as Vulcan (complete with comedy northern accent).
		The film itself is a visual feast and I feel captures perfectly a whimsical romantic era of great adventurers, somewhat in the vein of Indiana Jones.

	Reviews: The Adventures of Baron Munchhausen (1988)
		Terry Gilliam's retelling of the classic story about the baron with the bit too wild imagination will go down in history as one of cinema's most memorable flops.
		Baron Munchhausen is a highly imaginative movie, telling the tale of a man who claims to have battled giant sea monsters, to have taken trips to the moon and who also says he has danced with Venus.
		Gilliam let loose entirely, sparkling the movie with the visual wit apparent since his Monty Python days and making sure that every last cent of the budget was visible on screen.
