- A 1985 film directed by Terry Gilliam, depicting one man’s futile struggle against a futuristic (and heavily decayed) governmental bureaucracy, drawing very heavily on George Orwell’s 1984. Stakes a serious claim towards being the most definite and ghastly example of Executive Meddling in the entire history of cinema. If you’re not watching the director’s cut, you’re not watching the real thing.
It is the perfection of God’s works that they are all done with the greatest simplicity. He is the God of order and not of confusion. And therefore as they would understand the frame of the world must endeavor to reduce their knowledge to all possible simplicity, so must it be in seeking to understand these visions.
Isaac Newton
