Genre: Fantasy, Drama
Tagline: The squirrels made it seem less lonely
Plot: Terry Gilliam, the director of such fantasies as TIME BANDITS, BRAZIL, and THE ADVENTURES OF BARON MUNCHAUSEN, tells a very different kind of story in TIDELAND. Based on the novel by Mitch Cullin and cowritten by Gilliam and Tony Grisoni, TIDELAND follows young Jeliza-Rose (Jodelle Ferland), the daughter of Noah (Jeff Bridges), a drug-addicted aging rock-and-roller, and Queen Gunhilda (Jennifer Tilly), a drug-addicted, mean-spirited chocoholic. After her mother overdoses, Jeliza-Rose and Noah move to his mother's home in the middle of nowhere, an abandoned wreck of a house. As Noah gets lost in one of his "vacations"--his drug trips, for which his daughter prepares the speedball--Jeliza-Rose becomes friends with the emotionally and physically challenged epileptic Dickens (Brendan Fletcher), the brother of Dell (Janet McTeer), a witchlike woman who is deathly afraid of bees, has a penchant for taxidermy, and continually terrifies Jeliza-Rose. Jeliza-Rose also falls farther into her own fantastical world, particularly with her doll heads Mustique, Sateen Lips, Glitter Gal, and Baby Blonde--one of which falls down a dark and narrow rabbit hole--and a mysterious talking squirrel that is trying to tell her something important. Part PSYCHO, part ALICE'S ADVENTURES IN WONDERLAND,
