Title : Brazil (Criterion Collection) [Blu-ray]
ASIN : B009D004X6
Description : In the dystopic masterpiece Brazil, Jonathan Pryce (Glengarry Glen Ross) plays a daydreaming everyman who finds himself caught in the soul-crushing gears of a nightmarish bureaucracy.

At the heart of it all, though, the many extras and made-with-care package would add up to nothing if...
