Before the new TV series "GRIMM" at Universal Channel started, I got hold of the movie.
The Brothers Grimm is a 2005 adventurefantasy film directed by Terry Gilliam. The film stars Matt Damon and Heath Ledger in an exaggerated and fictitious portrait of the Brothers Grimm as traveling con-artists in French-occupied Germany during the late 18th century. However, the brothers eventually encounter a genuine fairy tale curse which requires real courage instead of their usual bogus exorcisms.

Then it got me wondering, was this really how the world saw the brothers? So start my research. Jacob (January 4, 1785 – September 20, 1863) and Wilhelm Grimm (February 24, 1786 – December 16, 1859), were German academics, linguists, cultural researchers, and authors who together collected folklore. They are among the most well-known storytellers of European folk tales.
So they used the real names of the brothers for the movie ! Curious ! Over all it was a good movie, it has bits & pieces of history. Something about the French, the Germans & the Fairy Tales.
