Even when you think the drama is over, it's not.
Brazil is funny that way.
No matter what, somehow, somewhere, someone wants to step in the way of people seeing it. Thankfully, eventually everything was ironed out, and Criterion got all the extra footage they wanted. A new commentary track featuring Gilliam's laughing voice was recorded, and the disc was released with incredible applause. The Brazil special edition proved to be one of the most important special editions ever released. If you listen very closely you will hear my screams for joy.
