James Acheson Discusses The Costumes And Sets Of Terry Gilliam’s Time Bandits

This past Tuesday, the Criterion Collection released one of my all time favorite films from Terry Gilliam, the 1981 film: Time Bandits.

It features a gorgeous new transfer of the film, several old and new supplements, and new cover art featuring a redesigned title treatment from F. Ron Miller.

The film still holds up, after all these years and all of these viewings, for me. The art direction is absolutely gorgeous, and this video, which the Criterion Collection just uploaded to their YouTube channel, features Time Bandits‘ costume designer, James Acheson, discussing what went into designing the sets and costumes.
