Simply put, he gets to make movies because big stars--Robin Williams in The Fisher King, Brad Pitt in 12 Monkeys, Depp in almost anything--love to participate in a Terry Gilliam adventure.

Ron Maxwell, 22, is a Citibank computer operator by day and one of the Eighth Street's performing "Brads" on weekends.
