Brazil

Ett skönt, surrealistisk spektakel som säger mer om verkligheten, än verkligheten ofta själv.

Gilliam's belief in the evil of banality is on full display here, made all the more dazzling by Norman Garwood and Maggie Gray's Oscar-nominated art direction.

...like an inescapable fever dream somewhere between Kafka and Monty Python, and set within one of the most brilliantly realised dystopias in sci-fi cinema.

The movie is awash in elaborate special effects, sensational sets, apocalyptic scenes of destruction and a general lack of discipline.

Viewed in its 2:22 entirety, Brazil is a fascinating, visually interesting satire of life in a world where paperwork has gone berserk and Big Brother never stops watching.
