Brazil(1985) Trailer

Well, it's a Gilliam film so weirdness and absurdity is to be expected.


On a somewhat related note, I have never tried recreational drugs (only alcohol, and no tobacco products either) but I watched Apocalypse Now while unable to sleep, even while exhausted, lying in bed - and it was the closest to 'tripping balls' that I have ever been.
Not sure why.

i always thought brazil was one of the classics!  worth seeing more than once if i were asked.

I was in college when Brazil came out.  I was a huge Monty Python fan and thought "This will be great !!"  Terry Gilliam and Michael Palin !!  So, it'll be like Holy Grail, Meaning of Life, and Life of Brian only better !!

Boy, was I disappointed.  Expecting MP silliness and getting, well.....Brazil.

It does, however grow on you.

Some days even my lucky rocketship underpants won't help.


Bring me my Broadsword and a clear understanding.
Get up to the roundhouse on the cliff-top standing.
Take women and children and bed them down.
Bless with a hard heart those that stand with me.
Bless the women and children who firm our hands.
Put our backs to the north wind.
Hold fast by the river.
Sweet memories to drive us on,
for the motherland.
