Director Terry Gilliam reveals insights about Brazil (1985), his Orwellian retro-futurist fantasy. Gilliam also talks about his love of 2001: A Space Odyssey (1968), his dislike of middle management bureaucracy, and his experience of casting Robert De Niro.

this guy is a genius, one of the most underrated films ever.
A bit depressing in it's realism at times.
@@annalisavajda252 i concur, definitely is
Well, you can call it underrated… but for me personally… I’ve been citing Brazil as my single favorite film since around 1990. And nothing has surpassed it yet. As far as dystopic sci-fi, Children of Men came kind of close.
I love the world Terry built in Brazil. Just a constant illustration of not actually fixing anything, just adding something else to bandaid the situation. Screen too small? Stick a big lens on it. Even all the ducting just redirecting the problem to somewhere else. This who, "not my department", mentality.
Brilliant and so timeless in its message.
Terry, all your energy and thoughts made this planet a better place to live on. Thanks, because it hasn't been said to you enough.
(And bravo for passing blame to the people who made it happen as well, attribution is incredibly important.)
i just saw this masterpiece you can see the inspiration it gave to our generation, its one of a kind and it talks so uch for just one movie ! AMAZING 10/10
The best Christmas movie.
My favourite movie of all. Just wonderful.
a truly great sci fi film that is still relevant today
Brilliance upon brilliance, truly one of the best movies ever made. Timeless.
just saw it the other day, a truly immortal film
I think Brazil is the best dystopian film along with Blade Runner that parallels today.
What a pleasure to hear him reminisce about Ian Holm’a performance. One of the most subtle, varied and pathos inducing character studies be seen.
No matter how many times I watch this movie, there's always something new to discover.
I had the great fortune to be in the audience.
Brazil, it's about me living in a world that keeps making me uncomfortable in a strange way, and eventually it ends up with a tragedy but I wouldn't know how it is, which can only be seen by others... // I can talk about this movie 24 hours .. as long as I have a few bottles of wine.
Brazil did not age a bit since the 80's... Only classics can achieve that!
Is it not the cinematography?
such a visually striking and innovative film the way used different 8mm 11mm camera's and its vision of a society. He obviously took inspiration from Metropolis and other great sci fi films.
Gilliam nailed the sense of disconnection in the modern world. Brazil worked because the commentary of it reflected an exaggeration of the systems at that time but everything is so shattered now there's no center to reflect or comment about. It's all disintegrating it seems to me. In a way Brazil is a movie that's representative of a more collective and congruous and stable time weirdly enough.
"Have you got a 27B/6"?
Great stuff. Thanks.
Wonderful
Sam and Mr Kurtzmann would definitely get shipped if Brazil came out now. The context isn't really 'sub' , it's pretty strongly there.
Brazil is... not science fiction... Sure, it's an alternative reality world that is forever stuck in the 50s-60s... But.... I genuinely can't remember a single element in the film that could be considered science fiction. Even those ridiculous robots they have at the Ministry of Information seem like some kind of pet project a robotics major would've made in his sleep.
*Love the film.* Even more then Mann's "Manhunter", Demme's "Silence of the Lambs" or Gilliam's own "Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas", which is saying a lot, because these three are *astronomically awesome.*
DiNero's best role.
De Niro’s? Yes! No dinero aqui 😊
for those thinking the movie isn't real... it is (almost) real.
i wish i became the Brazilian president Franklin Tan in the future i love Rio de Janeiro.
Hey! That’s the old man from scene 24!
"My complication ... had a little complication!"
That was a great running gag.
dearest Terry
GREAT!
what is the name of the movie he mentions at 00:48
The day the Earth stood still
The ending was so sad. I wish it had a happy ending.
The Minnesota kid has almost been assimilated into the Borg linguistically.
Terry Gilliam’s NOT British????????????????????? My world is going topsy-turvy.
He’s an honorary Brit. He left the US for the UK when he found the states too scary.
He’s a British citizen who has renounced his US citizenship since 2006. So basically he’s a Brit ;-)
He speaks with American phonology, but a heavily British intonation.
@@TinyEpics hes a child of the universe. A very disturbed one.
@@paulclissold1525 Terry's disturbed or the universe?
“I’d like to talk to you about ducts…”
On fear and loathing
Boy from the BFI sounds like Andy Parsons.
Lol.. i just commented on Brett & Heather Weinstein's Dark Horse podcast that all of your films were in fact, documentaries.
Weird seeing Terry mid-mullet
To the interviewer: ua-cam.com/video/HktV2yGtLv8/v-deo.html&ab_channel=WL26
Its time to revisit it in a world of authoritarian dictators. It is TIME.
How about Harry porter part mxcvlll
Bureacracy is worse than ever, what is he on about.......
He literally said in this interview, that the problem of bureaucracy has grown and "metastatisized". What are YOU on about?
When I saw Brazil I thought it was a tad cynical........ Silly Wabbit.
How does he not even mention 1984? Brazil is basically a retelling.
Terry has always said that he never read Nineteen Eighty-Four before making Brazil. And while there are similarities in the stories, they are quite different as well. Orwells's regime is a lot more frightening.
@@zingzangspillip1 Absolutely. All the elements which are similar are done differently. The ending is different in a way that is both in complete sync with Nineteen Eighty-Four, yet has this morbidly positive connotation of "This is the only way this entire situation could be resolved positively."
@@zingzangspillip1 ? But the Ministry of this n that? I dont believe that. Maybe someone helped write that idk
@@zingzangspillip1 Huh? Really? What is it with the story that it was orignally going to be called 1985 1/2 then?
@@joearzola7663 The ministry titles in 1984 were plays on governments' use of weasel words to misrepresent, e.g. Ministry of Love for torture, Ministry of Peace for armed forces. The bureau titles in Brazil are references to that I suppose. E.g., Information Retrieval for torture, Information Adjustments for doctoring history. However, these are only references. The actual story is different, the way it is told, *very* different.
1:58, ...pssst Terry didn't do "Blade Runner", you son if a silly person!
He didn't say that Terry directed Blade Runner. Listen again. He's just mentioning it as a comparison to Brazil.
@@Luka1180 Aah, my bad. 😅
