NOTES
Copious thanks to all involved in writing this thing, including:
Murray Chapman, Jon Drukman, Chuck Falzone, John Fletcher, Hyunsuk
Seung and others too numerous to mention.
Thanks also go to Terry Gilliam for making a wonderful film that
is still as fascinating in 1996 as it was in 1986, and the people at
Voyager for persevering to release a proper laserdisc of BRAZIL in
America.
