"Terry Gilliam has thanked Arcade Fire for freeing him from &amp;quot;weeks of depression&amp;quot;. Gilliam directed a live webcast of the Canadian band&amp;#039;s gig at New York&amp;#039;s Madison Square Garden on Thursday. The director said that he was only able to take on the project because of a &amp;quot;financial hiccup&amp;quot; in his long-delayed film The Man Who Killed Don Quixote, which has been planned since 2000. Gilliam told MTV: &amp;quot;Me doing this thing with Arcade Fire is a result of this hiccup with Don Quixote. It was extraordinary to get the call from Arcade Fire. I have to thank them for liberating me from weeks of depression. I&amp;#039;ll get back on Quixote after I get back.&amp;quot; He added: &amp;quot;Robert Duvall is still Quixote and Ewan McGregor is still involved - all that stuff is still happening. There&amp;#039;s just been a financial hiccup. I&amp;#039;ll get back to it, but at the moment out there, if you&amp;#039;re not spending a couple hundred million dollars in Hollywood, it&amp;#039;s pretty rough. Everyone&amp;#039;s having these problems. I&amp;#039;m not different from anybody else.&amp;quot; "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
