From the event’s website: “In a career full of wildly imaginative films, BRAZIL stands tall as Terry Gilliam’s most complete and satisfying vision. Inspired by George Orwell’s 1984 (BRAZIL was originally titled 1984 1/2 but was changed after Michael Radford’s direct cinematic adaptation of the novel beat BRAZIL to theaters by a year), this pitch-black dystopian comedy about a bureaucrat (Sir Jonathan Pryce) who dreams of escaping his monotonous life has had a profound influence on decades of subsequent films. BRAZIL pops with the thrill of invention and is grounded with a profound sense of humanity by Sir Jonathan Pryce in his breakout performance. An oddly timely and prophetic vision of the now-past future (or was it always past?), BRAZIL has revealed itself to be a warning of forthcoming history that’s both deeply disturbing and insanely entertaining.”
