It's certainly a favourite of mine. I know the scene you mean... |

There are two scenes, I feel, Mick. One with the towers rising in reverse and another when they're destroyed again. |

Yes! I've not watched the film in years but love it - it's my favourite of Gilliam's output. |

Despite it being exactly the kind of film I should love, it just doesn't work for me. |

Kate, that's the perfect way to put it for me, too. |

I love the early laptops as old-fashioned typewriters with screens. |

I've always loved Brazil. I think that maybe now I'm practically working in his office (got just about the same amount of desk space anyway and the equipment barely works...) it might ring too close to home in some respects. |
