Episode 17: Brazil
from Today's Review of Assorted Cinema · host TRAC-Cast
It turns out the scariest part of the dystopian future in Terry Gilliam's “Brazil” isn’t the bureaucratic capitalist police state it presents, but the lack of duct and tube management! Lowly government worker Sam Lowry dreams of a brighter future in his dead-end life when he encounters a woman named Jill, whom he keeps seeing in his dreams. Famously, the film does not take place in Brazil itself. Not since “Friday the 13th: The Final Chapter” has a title been this misleading.
