About this product

Product Information

BRAZIL is Terry Gilliam's masterpiece. Cowritten by Gilliam, playwright Tom Stoppard, and Charles McKeown, the cult-favorite film is set in a futuristic society laden with red tape and bureaucracy. When a bug (literally) gets in the system, an innocent man is killed, leading mild-mannered Sam Lowry (an excellent Jonathan Pryce) to reexamine what he wants out of life. He decides to fight the totalitarian system in his search for freedom--and the woman he loves. The terrific, offbeat cast features Robert De Niro as a renegade heating engineer; Katherine Helmond as Sam's ever-younger mother; Michael Palin as a government-sanctioned torturer with a distaste for upsetting the status quo; Bob Hoskins as a vengeful Central Services employee; Jim Broadbent as a wacko plastic surgeon; the wonderful Ian Holm as Sam's nerve-ridden, pitiful boss, afraid of his own signature; and Kim Greist as the rebel Sam falls for. The look of BRAZIL is relentless, overwhelming, and outrageously spectacular. Giant monoliths rise from the street; government offices are a network of computers, pneumatic tubes, and narrow hallways built with Nazi-like precision; and apartment complexes are a maze of washed-out grays and numbers, all frighteningly uniform. The terrorist explosions actually bring color into this dull, monochramatic world. BRAZIL is a nightmare vision of the future, yet also hysterically funny and incisive, one of the most inventive, influential, and important films of the 1980s.

    A Grand Salute to a Classic Film

    Granted this is an older version of an older film, but, it is a great version on ALL counts. This 3 disc set has Gilliam's "full" version, as he wanted released, the alt "studio" version is included for the viewer's comparison; I much prefer the Director's Cut, but to each their own. The third disc is a treasure trove of info and talking points for this wildly inventive and beautiful film................ An absolute must have for fans of fantasy films, HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!

  • Nearly perfect

    This is not going to be a review of the film, as I'll assume anyone looking at this version already has a working familiarity with the story. Rather, I'll just briefly go over what I think of it as a product. The Criterion series is about as good as it gets for film fans in home viewing, and this set is not exception. This set includes both Gilliam's final version of the film (somehow the only version I've ever seen!) and the controversial Sid Sheinberg (sp?) version seen on television in the US. Both include commentary, the former from Gilliam and the latter from 'Gilliam expert David Morgan'; I'm listening to the Gilliam right now, and haven't even watched the other version yet. The second disc is all bonus features, with two insightful films ...

  • Brazil

    Terry Gilliam 1985 Brazil motion picture is shown in its full 2 hr and 22min Criterion release and it is a work of great camera shots and great acting and brilliant film directing and editing. It’s hard to believe this movie was made 34 years ago. It’s Gilliam’s masterpiece.

  • A future Brazil

    A brilliant film from one of the great Monty Python writers, Terry Gilliam; it explores in sometimes very funny scenes a dystopia like no other we've ever seen--yet there is a love story.

  • Brazil - a movie with many faces

    When I saw Brazil at the theater back in the mid 80's I had no idea that the movie was a battle ground between director Terry Gilliam & U.S. distributor Universal. Long released (by another company) in Europe, Universal thought the movie was too long & too grim. The director's cut on disc one of this DVD box set is 142 minutes long and it is GREAT! The closest thing to it I ever saw was a 131 minute VHS tape I bought in the 90's. Disc two is contains a multi-chapter production notebook, a 30 minute promo film from 1985 titled: "What is Brazil", and a 1996 Criterion produced 56 feature titled: "The Battle of Brazil". The third disc presents the 94 minute "Love Conquers All" version of Brazil released by the studio, so in this set you get ...
