Product Description
Product Description
Throughout his life Edward Bloom (Ewan McGregor) has always been a man of big appetites, enormous passions and tall tales. In his later years, portrayed by five-time Best Actor Oscar(r) nominee Albert Finney (Best Actor in a Supporting Role, Erin Brockovich, 2000), he remains a huge mystery to his son, William (Billy Crudup). Now, to get to know the real man, Will begins piecing together a true picture of his father from flashbacks of his amazing adventures in this marvel of a movie.
Amazon.com
After a string of mediocre movies, director Tim Burton regains his footing as he shifts from macabre fairy tales to Southern tall tales. Big Fish twines in and out of the oversized stories of Edward Bloom, played as a young man by Ewan McGregor (Moulin Rouge, Down with Love) and as a dying father by Albert Finney (Tom Jones). Edward's son Will (Billy Crudup, Almost Famous) sits by his father's bedside but has little patience with the old man's fables, because he feels these stories have kept him from knowing who his father really is. Burton dives into Bloom's imagination with zest, sending the determined young man into haunted woods, an idealized Southern town, a traveling circus, and much more. The result is sweet but--thanks to the director's dark and clever sensibility--never saccharine. Also featuring Jessica Lange, Alison Lohman, Helena Bonham Carter, Danny DeVito, and Steve Buscemi. --Bret Fetzer

Super films, état neuf emballé.
Merci beaucoup, vendeur au top.
"Big Fish" ist ganz anders und dennoch reiht sich sein neues Werk nahtlos in sein bisheriges Gesamtwerk ein.
Ein Märchen, aber vor allem auch ein erwachsener Film - der Wunsch nach dem Wiederfinden "magischer Augen", die wir auf dem Weg zum Erwachsenen irgendwo verloren haben. Schauplatz ist diesmal weder Geisterstadt, Geisterschloss oder Gotham City...wir befinden uns im Amerika der Gegenwart. Bei der Durchschnittsfamilie, irgendwie in Liebe miteinander verbunden und dennoch durch einen Konflikt zwischen Vater und Sohn getrennt. Der Vater war schon immer, sehr zum Leidwesen des Sohns, eher der Märchenerzähler, der seine eigene Lebensgeschichte mit viel Phantasie und kaum glaubwürdigen Geschichten aufgepeppt hat - ein Riese als Freund, eine Phantasiestadt, eine Hexe, Held im Krieg etc. Ein Lügner ? Ein Aufschneider ? Seine Geschichten passen nicht in den durchschnittlichen Alltag. Aus der Perspektive des Sohns bekommen wir das Jägerlatein nacherzählt und entlarven den Vater auch ziemlich schnell als sympathischen aber unverbesserlichen Aufschneider, der nie sein wahres Ich preisgeben konnte und sich hinter überzogenenen und gar verlogenen Geschichten versteckt und aufgewertet hat.
Der Film führt uns auf diese rationale Fährte, irgendwann bemerken wir, dass neben uns auch eine irrationale Linie folgt und immer mehr führt uns der Weg auf die andere "yellow brick road"...bis ans Finale. Dies hält einen glücksbringenden Moment für uns Zuschauer bereit, der, und ich möchte nicht allzu viel verraten, etwas ganz GROSSES in sich birgt.
Ich hab mich nach dem Film sehr wohl gefühlt, er regt zum Nachdenken auf vielerlei Ebenen an, vor allem zieht er dem Tod den Stachel und sagt ja zum Leben und zu allem was dazugehört.
Dieser Film, der anfänglich wie viele leicht sentimentale Hollywoodfilme daherkommt, fährt mit jeder Minute und das sehr leise einen ganz anderen Plan. Ich denke ich werde ihn ins DVD-Regal direkt neben "Ist das Leben nicht schön?" stellen.
