Add comment April 6th, 2008
Big Fish was directed by Oscar Nominated Tim Burton. Tim Burton has only made high quality movies he has for example directed the classics Beetle Juice, Sleepy Hollow, Planet of the Apes, Batman, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory and many more. Big Fish was also a huge success and it was released on 10 December 2003 in USA. The filming of the movie actually took place in Alabama and I think most people from Alabama are very proud for that. The movie got nominated for Oscar and also for another 32 prizes. The cast in the film is great and the acting is at its best. Ewan McGregor best known from the latest Star Wars movies (Obi Wan) has the lead role as Ed Bloom – Younger while Albert Finney plays the role as his dying father Ed Bloom – Older. There are also many other great actors in this film just watch it and I am sure you will see more familiar faces.
The story is about a dying father and his son, who is trying to learn more about his dad by piecing together the stories he has gathered over the years. His son then tries to re-create his father life with the few facts he got so he can understand his father better before he passes away.
