What Swanky Things are you Watching?

One more word about Brazil. As much as the Director's Cut is different from the theatrical version (and infinitely better), you MUST watch the TV version included in the set - which is also like watching a completely different film, this time infinitely worse.

Brazil is an amazing movie in its own right, and made even moreso by having 3 incredibly different versions through the magic or heinous art of editing. The commentary track for the TV version reveals one of the most pernicious stories in the disgusting annals of studio-controlled filmmaking (or, in this case, unmaking).
