I got this movie for Christmas from my son.  I love it!

Gilliam seems to have used puppets in several movies.  The 3-disc set of 
Brazil has a section on the puppets in the extras.  I'd forgotten about 
the ones in Time Bandits.  Guess I'm due to see that one again.  Darn!  
:-)   Brothers Grimm has some puppets scattered about here and there.  I 
may have to go back and watch Twelve Monkeys and Fisher King just to see 
if there are some tucked away somewhere.  There is a Pinocchio doll in 
Fisher King, but I don't remember actual puppets.

Not a Gilliam movie, but there is a Punch and Judy show in Charade with 
Audrey Hepburn and Cary Grant.  She sort of narrates it for those 
unfamiliar with the show.
