I was struck by people dining in a restaurant and still eating their dinner while terrorist acts are taking place across the room. Remember this was 1985, before the terrorism paranoia we have to day.

One of my favorite films. A brilliant dystopian fantasy-cum-black comedy that combines Orwell, Huxley, Kafka, Phillip K. Dick, Fritz Lang and Monty Python in a dazzling noirish nightmare world. In some respects, Brazil was a biting satire of the Reagan/Thatcher era as it skewers everything from government propaganda to terrorism (real or imagined) to consumerism and plastic surgery - of course, all of those things are still with us today, making the film just as relevant now as it was in 1985.

With prolific British bit player Guy Standeven in the restaurant sequence. He's the guy with the receding hairline wearing a gray suit sitting at a table next to a giant pipe fixture in the left corner of the frame in an overhead shot who looks in the direction of where the explosion just happened.
You've seen Guy Standeven in something because the man was in everything.
