Reviews
Brazil (1985)
A masterpiece
..The great thing about Brazil is that it is such an original piece of art; it tells it's tale in the most dreamy of ways; in an retro-styled futuristic atmosphere, with both light-hearted humor, piquant drama/romance, splendid camera-work with some smart angles, delightful bright colors and a thrilling sensation of epic mystique.
It's even got some swell actors, delivering quite the performances! (Astonishing Jonathan Pryce as the main character, as well as: Robert De Niro, Ian Holm, Bob Hoskins, Michael Palin, Peter Vaughan and beautiful Kim Greist, as an significant supporting actor). Not going to tell you what they do or how how they do it, this just needs to be watched.
...What also fascinated me is that the story and scenery takes so many turns and twists -when you believe it's coming to an end- there's still more behind the upcoming corner. Stunning visuals and plot-continuum's you did not expect.
Terry Gilliam always manage to crawl under my skin; make me marvel, feel, think in ways I didn't think before; bringing forth deep thoughts from within the depths of my subconscious, see details in- and philosophize within new perspectives.. and of course giving me some of that extra energy to my juvenile imagination.
Love it.
**Also; all regards to the novel "1984", and its maker George Orwell; which this piece is heavily based on. Heard it was meant to be called 1984½ at first by Gilliam. But fortunately he made his own thing out of it, and I just love the title, and intro song; "Brazil".
