  • Brazil is a Perfect master Piece. I disagree about how impossible is to have a movie like that nowadays in a major studio with a big budget. David Kelly´s Southland Tales and Aronfosky´s The Fountain are odd, wierd and eerie. Both had big releases and actually they flunk, even if the studios put a lot of money to them
