FTC Film Club continues this fall. Each film will be followed by audience Q and A facilitated by a member of the faculty from the Film and Television Masters Program (FTMA) at Sacred Heart University. Terry Gilliam's futuristic cult masterpiece! A bureaucrat in a retro-future world tries to correct an administrative error and himself becomes an enemy of the state.
Low-level bureaucrat Sam Lowry (Jonathan Pryce) escapes the monotony of his day-to-day life through a recurring daydream of himself as a virtuous hero saving a beautiful damsel. Investigating a case that led to the wrongful arrest and eventual death of an innocent man instead of wanted terrorist Harry Tuttle (Robert De Niro), he meets the woman from his daydream (Kim Greist), and in trying to help her gets caught in a web of mistaken identities, mindless bureaucracy and lies.
CAST: Jonathan Pryce // Robert De Niro // Katherine Helmond
