#101: That Time Conor Loved Brazil

By tortell1 5 years ago

8:49 P.M. Somewhere in the 20th century. For this episode we watched the 1985 cult classic film Brazil. Directed by Terry Gilliam and starring Jonathan Pryce, Robert De Niro, Kim Greist, Michael Palin, Katherine Helmond, Bob Hoskins and Ian Holm, the film centres on Sam Lowry, a man trying to find a woman who appears in his dreams while he is working in a mind-numbing job and living in a small apartment, set in a consumer-driven dystopian world in which there is an over-reliance on poorly maintained (and rather whimsical) machines. Brazil’s satire of bureaucratic, totalitarian government is reminiscent of George Orwell’s Nineteen Eighty-Four. Come join us as we watch a film that has broken into Conor’s top 10 favorite films.
