"Mistakes? We don't make mistakes."

"Brazil" Video


An unassuming clerk (Jonathan Pryce) discovers a simple typographical error and gets caught up in a nightmarish bureaucracy that would even make Kafka wince.

Director Terry Gilliam paints a disturbing but humorous portrait of a bleak future society, a cross between A Clockwork Orange and 1984.

The best part of this movie was watching Michael Palin. I've always been in love with him, and I watched the movie simply to see him. However, the movie proved to be one of my favorites.
