Wookinpanub! Wookinpanub... NOT Pookinwanub!

One of my favorite filmmakers is Terry Gilliam, of Monty Python
fame. In addition to being the non-native of the troupe, he was
also responsible for the animation.
His films tend towards a rather dystopian existence, due to and
exacerbated by the governmental/corporate/industrial complex
which we are led to believe to be the solutions to what ails
society.
Very Kafka-esque. And quite prescient.
My favorite of his oeuvre is "Brazil" (1985)... then a very
close second "The Fisher King” (1991), followed by "12 Monkeys"
(1995).
I have been to Brazil, Indiana. Gone in search of Brazil,
Missouri. Even passed through Brazil, Kentucky when I was lost
while driving. No cause for alarms, but I have some good stories
associated with those treks.
But a mere transcription error by one of the aforementioned
complexes has led to my own little "Brazil", and the unfolding
bureaucracy associated with it has been inconvenient... to say
the least.
Brazil nuts don’t seem so distasteful, anymore.
