About This Book
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 --This
text refers to the move edition based on this novel.
