movie: Brazil

It has been more than 20 years since I saw this movie.  Very happy to see it again...half happy.

At the beginning, I'm thinking, Wow, Thanks Terry, for a beautiful, funny, clever world.  The visuals are tasty.  The acting tickled me.  Very nice.

In the end, it seemed like some steam was lost.  Something didn't wrap it up as nicely as the start.  I realize the director argued with the studio about the ending, and he got his way.  OK I get it.  But maybe...

It is worth seeing.  Sort of in the vein of 1984, etc. 

P.S.  On a list of movie scenes your eye will remember forever:  The lady getting plastic surgery.
