Big Fish
2003
In this Tim Burton fantasy based on the novel by Daniel Wallace, William Bloom (Billy Crudup) tries to learn more about his dying father, Edward, by piecing together disparate facts from a lifetime of fantastical tales and legends of epic proportions. Ewan McGregor co-stars as the young Edward, a traveling salesman, with Albert Finney playing him as an older man. Helena Bonham Carter and Steve Buscemi also star.

Tried a little too hard to be touching, and ended up just touching down. Good imagery, but poor storytelling. Ending left me very annoyed.
