By Terry Gilliam, 1985.
Starring Jonathan Pryce, Michael Palin, Robert De Niro
The film centers on Sam Lowry (Jonathan Pryce), a young man trying to find a woman who appears in his dreams while he is working in a mind-numbing job and living a life in a small apartment, set in a dystopian world in which there is an over-reliance on poorly maintained (and rather whimsical) machines. Brazil's bureaucratic, totalitarian government is reminiscent of the government depicted in George Orwell's Nineteen Eighty-Four, except that it has a buffoonish, slap-stick quality and lacks a 'Big Brother' figure.

MaeJiC favorited and reviewed this via GetGlue.com3 weeksA high point in creative film-making and a testament to Mr. Gilliam's fortitude and determination to make films that are both visionary in the worlds and characters on display while simulatenously providing some disturbing glimpses into very dark parts of the human psyche, all told in a distinctive style that is hard to compare to anyone else. Auteur and "enfant sauvage", Terry Gilliam, and in particular this film, are beautiful splotches on cinematic history that will continue to inspire for years to come.
