It’s Christmastime “somewhere in the 20th century,” and Sam Lowry (Jonathan Pryce)—a low-level technocrat and constant disappointment to his plastic-surgery-obsessed mother—escapes his drab reality through fantasies of heroism. When a clerical error sends him on a fateful mission, he glimpses the woman of his dreams and plunges into a surreal quest, aided by rogue repairman Harry Tuttle (Robert De Niro). Oscar-nominated for Best Art Direction and Best Original Screenplay, Terry Gilliam’s Brazil is an eye-popping, black-comic twist on Orwellian dystopia—a retro-futuristic yuletide fever dream of tinsel-decked pneumatic tubes, endlessly looping Christmas muzak, and Santa-suited anarchists.
