Absolutely Anything

Aliens who, traveling from planet to planet, study various living creatures, have reached Earth. But their trips have certain peculiarities. For example, if the inhabitants of the planet seem worthy by the criteria of aliens, then they are happy to make friends. But if not, they destroy the entire planet. The aliens have their own way of finding out: by giving one member of the species the unlimited ability to do whatever they want. On Earth, such a person turned out to be Neil Clark, a teacher of children with special needs. In addition, he is in love with his neighbor, but does not have the courage to speak. And so, Neil can do whatever he wants. Read more One of the members of Monty Python - Terry Jones - directed the film "Anything You Want". He took part both in the productions of the films of the comedy group and filmed his own projects: "Eric the Viking" with Tim Robinson, "The Wind in the Willows" and others. This was the first work of Terry Jones as a director in 19 years. Initially, the roles of Neil and his neighbor Catherine were to go to Benedict Cumberbatch and Gemma Arterton. For Robin Williams, who voiced the dog Dennis, "Anything You Want" was the last film. Back in 2009, in an interview, he admitted that he wanted to play together with Simon Pegg. For the scenes with the dog, the British man had to put a sausage on his head to attract the animal's attention. Terry Jones said in an interview that he was inspired by the story "The Man Who Could Work Miracles" by Herbert Wells. In this humorous story, an ordinary citizen suddenly gains unlimited power. Famous stand-up comedian and actor Eddie Izzard, who is a fan of Monty Python, took part in the filming. The main musical theme of the picture was performed by the famous Australian singer Kylie Minogue.
