As the 70th anniversary to George Orwell's Nineteen Eighty-Four has come around, the Mjolnir at the Movies crowd decided to review.....Brazil (1985). We have a look at this dystopian
satire and what it reveals of the qualities Terry Gilliam has as a
director, the connections to Nineteen Eighty-Four, how much of it really
is satire and who might appreciate and identify with this movie. We
examine Gilliam's influences and why this tends to be a favourite with
Rightists, despite Gilliam's open support of Leftist politics. Do Sam Lowri and Harry Tuttle provide inspiration for domestic terrorists like Timothy McVeigh?
