Yes. But wait, it gets worse! Here in the US, the theatrical run was exactly one day long, and they didn't spend any money to promote it. So I, a huge Gilliam fan, didn't even know it was happening until days later when stories like this showed up. Sigh.

Wow that's one limited release. Which is strange for a well known director. It didn't even reach Canada.

  great film, saw it here in Edmonton, one of it's three screenings over two days. I'm lucky to have a mother who listens to CBC radio https://www.cbc.ca/radio/q/friday-april-5-2019-terry-gilliam-pup-and-more-1.5084776 https://www.cbc.ca/radio/q/friday-april-5-2019-terry-gilliam...

Yes, Amazon was going to distribute it, but they got scared after last year's lawsuit.

  they actually did stream it and sell DVDs very briefly here in the US, but they pulled it as soon as the legal issues became known.

gilliam made it all the way through shooting in the 90s with johnny depp and the movie was canceled very late in production. the version we're discussing now is a complete reboot. it was shown at cannes and had a limited theatrical release in france. a release in the US was planned for the same time, and in fact the movie was very briefly streaming on amazon in the US, but ultimately got locked up because one of the producers of the original version took gilliam to court.

This being a limited release, how/where can we see it?
