Page "The Adventures of Baron Munchausen" Paragraph 43

Regarding the obvious gap between the movie's troubled production and its eventual triumph of aesthetic cinematic form on the screen, Jeff Swindoll wrote in his 2008 DVD Review of Munchausen for Monsters and Critics: " For the absolute hell that the production of the film turned out to be, you really don't see any of that tension on the screen.

[...] the film is a fantastic, whimsical treat.

[...] Baron Munchausen is full of whimsy, fantasy, bright colors, and fabulous characters.

None is as fantastic as the Baron himself as played, with a twinkle in his eye, by the grand John Neville.
