I'm going to go with Brazil on this one. Eternal Sunshine of a Spotless Mind is a great film that definitely goes down a strange route, but it pales in comparison to Brazil. The concept of Eternal Sunshine is a unique one and as is the acting and the way that it's presented. Brazil is both one of my favourite dystopian films and one of my favourite comedies (second to The Holy Grail). It's chock full of one liners, great set production, and keeps me entertained the whole way through each time I watch it. I've only seen Eternal Sunshine twice, and I'm sure that it has that repeatability, but it didn't make me want to buy a copy for future viewing like Brazil did.

Brazil for me. I don't know why but even though it makes me feel claustrophobic when watching it I keep coming back to it. :)

I agree with you there. Brazil may be the closest thing to Shrooms anxiety I have experienced sober.

I don't think I would go there. I find Brazil quite terrifying at points.
I have to go with Brazil too. It's constantly engaging and so raw emotionally. I definitely prefer the Theatrical Cut, the additional scenes on the others are jarring (for someone who was familiar solely with Theatrical) and don't really add anything. Eternal Sunshine just feels so authentic (other than the tech elements). It helps that it was beautifully casted. I like to see both of them every year or two. |
Maybe I'd appreciate it now that I'm a little older, but when I watched Brazil a few years ago I couldn't finish it. Eternal Sunshine, on the other hand, is one of my personal favorites.

I am biased because I've only seen ESSM and not Brazil but I'll definitely check it out.

I'd go so far as to say you should probably abstain until you see it, I mean, like, yea.

Ok sure, I'll download it asap!
