Shorties: Brazil (1985)

    I wondered why this is a Christmas film that has nothing to do with Santa Claus or gifts but I enjoy it. It is a complete satire comedy of Charlie Chaplin’s Modern Times with less reference from Nineteen-Eighty-Four. No offense to all viewers but “Brazil” will make your head spin all day and your stomach boil. It has nothing to do with a country in South America.
    The story is original although the setting takes place in the “future”. Believe me or not, this movie inspired the creation of flatscreen monitors. Sam Lowry, is hardworking but frienzied and always daydreaming of saving a woman. The other characters are okay but I hate the waiter and Sam’s mother. They are annoying, no questions asked.
    In conclusion, it will make you unbelievably crazy but that’s what it is. In addition, it stimulates boundless imagination that would not get out of your head.
