Gilliam Anthems
The news that Quincy Jones is planning to remake "We Are The World" brings to mind the satire of charity singles that Terry Gilliam penned for The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus.
Heath Ledger's character is a charity scam artist, and "We Are The Children of the World" is first heard as the ringtone on his Blackberry. (The ringtone is also the last thing heard at the end of the credits)
The other song Gilliam wrote for the movie is a very Pythonesque police recruitment anthem called "We Love Violence".
