Terrence Vance "Terry" Gilliam (/ˈɡɪliəm/; born 22 November 1940) is an American-born British screenwriter, film director, animator, actor, comedian and member of the Monty Python comedy troupe.
Gilliam has directed 12 feature films, including Monty Python and the Holy Grail (1975), Time Bandits (1981), Brazil (1985), The Adventures of Baron Munchausen (1988), The Fisher King (1991), 12 Monkeys (1995), Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas (1998), The Brothers Grimm (2005) and The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus (2009). The only "Python" not born in Britain, he became a naturalised British citizen in 1968 and formally renounced his American citizenship in 2006.
Gilliam was born in Minneapolis, Minnesota, the son of Beatrice (née Vance) and James Hall Gilliam. His father was a travelling salesman for Folgers before becoming a carpenter. Soon after, they moved to nearby Medicine Lake, Minnesota.
The family moved to the Los Angeles neighbourhood of Panorama City in 1952. Gilliam attended Birmingham High School where he was class president and senior prom king. He was voted "Most Likely to Succeed", and achieved straight A's. During high school, he began to avidly read Mad magazine, then edited by Harvey Kurtzman, which would later influence Gilliam's work.
A film released during World War 2 on the then recently formed Citizens Advice Bureau. The Citizens Advice service is 75 years old this year (2014). I used to describe myself as a 'poor man's lawyer' so it was interesting to see where it came from! Some of the quotes in here are pretty special - staff and volunteers of CABx in particular will appreciate them - enjoy :)
Britain's Ministry of Information produced hundreds of propaganda films during WWII. TROOP SHIP dates from around 1940, and shows a converted ocean liner drafted into Royal Navy service transporting soldiers to the front in North Africa. Told from the perspective of a soldier, the film contains wonderful footage shot on board ship during an eight week sea journey. Throughout the voyage, a convoy of warships escorts the ocean liner. This film is part of the Periscope Film LLC archive, one of the largest historic military, transportation, and aviation stock footage collections in the USA. Entirely film backed, this material is available for licensing in 24p HD. For more information visit http://www.PeriscopeFilm.com

Two warring factions from South Sudan held direct peace talks on Sunday for the first time since conflict broke out in the country last month, sending hundreds of thousands of people fleeing for safety. The direct talks, focused on a cease-fire and the release of political prisoners, put representatives of President Salva Kiir and former Vice President Riek Machar together in Ethiopia.

This clip is from the Ghana television station, GTV, and is one of a series of info-mercials created by the Ministry Of Information. Generally, these run during daytime television broadcasting, and usually between regular programming.
