Fantastic, 22 November 2002
Author: Steve (Xploitedyouth) from USA

I love this little short film, which precedes the film "Monty Python and the Meaning Of Life." The story about a group of long-suffering clerks working in an office building keelhauling the company and sailing the seas of commerce has more imagination in it's sixteen minutes that many other films have in 2 hours. It carries the message of youthful exuberance and creativity despite what age you are. The visuals are wonderfully silly. This is one of Gilliam's best.
