@zingzangspillip1 However, Tuttle is *not* a terrorist. He would only be labeled one by the Ministry, because he is defying their clumsy attempts to regulate the lives of their citizens. The only terror he creates is created by a proxy, the government.

@fuzzywzhe It depends on how the government defines terrorism. In our eyes, Tuttle wasn't really a criminal, and even if you look at it by the book, his crime was only a minor one. However, in a society where bureaucracy is a defining characteristic, a person who takes short-cuts and defies procedure could be considered a terrorist. It's interesting that Gilliam never shoes us the common man's attitude towards Tuttle, only the government's.

More people should see this film.. maybe they'd wake up and smell the coffee..

Haha, because, ironically, he was fixing things. Brilliant, I never noticed that possibility!

The TV program at the begining is called "In The Eye" LOL

Anyone who uses fear and violence to force people to act or believe in things they would otherwise not, is a terrorist. Regardless of whether they work for a government or are part of any other group. Terrorism is real, of course it's real.

The bloke who posted this is trying to convince us that real terrorists don't exist, that it's all a government ruse. Well, tell that to my Pakistani friend who lost his cousin in a mosque bombing in Lahore, you bloody clot. If you were in charge of things, London or Washington would be like one of those bomb-blighted cities in Pakistan

There was no false flag terrorism in Brazil.
In Brazil, there WAS NO terrorism - things were just breaking down, and everything was controlled by Central Services, which was filled with bureaucracy to such an extent, nothing was fixed, and everything was overly complicated and constantly things broke down.
Harry Tuttle was a "terrorist" because he was a rogue APPLIANCE repairman. He was a top wanted man.
