the "real world" became and still is,worthy of a straitjacket....
A true classic? in which I never heard of,Have you??
Didn't know of this film until recently
during one of my weekly browse excursions,
combing the net top - bottom (old school).......
Robert DeNiro stars in the film that somehow fell
through the cracks of mainstream?,I guess........
Looks to be loony enough to make it interestingly hilarious
as it could be a mirror of now, when thrown into the insanity
genre of real world present America....

One of my favorite novels of all time is George Orwell's 1984, and Brazil is very much a comedic interpretation of that. Brazil shows us a hilarious exaggeration of the monotony of machine like run bureaucracy, and man's constant voyage to avoid responsibility.
"That's not my department." Everyone seems to say. Sam Lowry (Jonathan Pryce) is a low ranking government employee. When an error leads to the execution of engineer Archibald Buttle (Brian Miller) instead of terrorist Archibald Tuttle (Robert De Niro), Sam attempts to fix this, and inadvertently becomes an enemy of the state.
Read that scenario again. This is a funny movie. It's a dark comedy/political satire, and almost every joke works. The nonchalant attitude of the government depicted in the film is where a big chunk of the humor comes from. It's a very smart comedy. Honestly if you like political satire, then Brazil is one we can all enjoy together.
Look @ that! Joe Biden is on the original Movie Poster!
DeNiro
America today,a truly undeniable comedy of errors.....Lol.........
