Five-volume collection of films featuring superstar actor Johnny Depp. In 'Arizona Dream' (1991), after his parents' death, fish counter Axel Backmar (Depp) travels to Arizona for the wedding of his car dealer uncle Leo Sweetie (Jerry Lewis). Feeling responsible for Axel, Leo offers to take him into the family business. While working at the car showroom, Axel meets older woman Elaine (Faye Dunaway) and her stepdaughter Grace (Lili Taylor). Axel alienates his uncle by beginning an affair with Elaine, who is obsessed with building a functioning aircraft, and he also becomes caught up in the deteriorating relationship between her and Grace. 'What's Eating Gilbert Grape' (1993) is a quirky observational comedy drama from Swedish director Lasse Hallstrom ('My Life As A Dog'). Gilbert Grape (Depp) leads a dull life in desolate backwater, Endora, Iowa, looking after his overweight mother and his mentally unstable brother (Leonardo DiCaprio). When a mysterious girl moves to town with her grandparents, Gilbert's life begins to change.

A series of chaotic and violent confrontations leaves Blake wounded, but he is befriended by a native American named Nobody (Gary Farmer), who takes him on a spiritual journey. The film is directed by Indie guru Jim Jarmusch. 'Sleepy Hollow' (1999) is director Tim Burton's gothic detective story, steeped in the traditions of American myth and the style of Hammer horror.

Featuring extensive on-set footage, the film shows how Gilliam coped (or failed to cope) with the illness of his star Jean Rochefort, unrehearsed extras, torrential rain, the destruction of his sets, and the concerns of his financial backers.
