Brazil is a great movie with a slow and painful birth. While there are many books and articles out there, with tons of interviews and fun fact, this book has something the rest do not. The first version of the screenplay. This is NOT how the movie ended up but this IS how the movie started. From this first screenplay characters were born, changed and twisted, ideas were created, killed and returned to life. A good example on how good movies are made during conflict, pain, and meal times.
