Terry Gilliam's classic movie about the dystopian nightmare that we are sleepwalking towards.

De Niro as a stealth HVAC engineer.

One of my personal favourites.

I love that film, and the music.

It's as if since 1950 our political and social environment hadn't evolved as quickly as in real life, but technology advanced faster. (Or maybe Germany did win the war).

There are so many subtle bits that were so prescient, too subtle in some respects. Last night I picked up on the need for Sam to take out PPI for the loan to pay for his interrogation and torture. This was 1985....
