2.  Me pelikula akong napanood kagabi:  Brazil. (Terry Gilliam, 1985)

Kakatuwa kasi superhero nila don ay isang maintenance man na walang red tape!  Kung kaya't hinahabol sya ngayon ng Gobyerno.  Ahehe.

Yung mga makina (i.e., airconditioning, tube sucky-thingy) parang me sariling buhay.  At and ultimate emancipation ay mga nagliliparang papel.

At sabi sa IMDB:

Sam Lowry is a harried technocrat in a futuristic society that is needlessly convoluted and inefficient. He dreams of a life where he can fly away from technology and overpowering bureaucracy, and spend eternity with the woman of his dreams. While trying to rectify the wrongful arrest of one Harry Buttle, Lowry meets the woman he is always chasing in his dreams, Jill Layton. Meanwhile, the bureaucracy has fingered him responsible for a rash of terrorist bombings, and both Sam and Jill's lives are put in danger. Written by Philip Brubaker
