brazil?
After watching Brazil, i felt as though i had been sucked into an acid addict's attic worst nightmare. The whole movie was just twisting my mind and contorting my inner thoughts. Ultimately i feel like there was defiantly some underlying themes, of which i did not understand. It defiantly depicts a totalitarian government that censors and abuses natural right of the people, hence why there are constant terrorist attacks. There is defiantly a "fight for what you believe in message", but i feel it is heavely watered down by a confusing plot and random inserts of useless information. I feel the approach to this movie almost hid the message and rendered it almost useless. Rather than a theme and massage people can easily walk away from, they are instead walking away confused and wondering if someone put acid in their cereal this morning. I'm defiantly not a huge fan of the post-modernistic style of writting and movies. It can defiantly work, I would defiantly say Flaubert's Parrot was succsessful in it's intent because i walked away form the book knowing more about the author and his sence of humor.

Did you find equal amounts of humor in both the book and the film?
(It's definitely--not defiantly--just an FYI)
