Era and Plot

As soon as the movie Brazil started it was odd. The tiny computer screens but set in a more futuristic time period while using decor and dress from the past. These changes in setting confuse viewers and make it difficult to assume ideas about that era. Furthermore, you wonder if it is set before the constitution and bill of rights were written because for some reason the government has the right to break into homes and capture citizens. Yes these citizens may have done something "wrong" according to them but people still individual rights. These men in suits break into houses through windows, drill out the ceiling, and throw bags over their prisoners. This is a traumatic experience and for the bagged and those in the area. Additionally, the "crimes" these people commit are not necessarily wrong but according to this group they are. The part about "we never make mistakes" is incredibly hypocritical for us viewers we see the mistake in names. They capture and mix up Tuttle with Buttle and do not even care to fix or admit their mistake. This frustrates us viewers and the movie never cares to explain why. Another part that does not particularly contribute to the plot is the whole part about his mother having humerous plastic surgerys. I do not understand how his mother needs to look younger or how it affects her son in any way. Lastly, all these day dreams or visions of his with wierd men in armour attacking him of flying away to his angel in white. These do not help the plot but just seem to waste our time with what would happen in fantasy movie.
