Well done dystopian movie, and quite prescient: Brazil.

I was lucky enough to have seen this on the "big screen" (not a "big screen" TV!) at a theater during the original release.

One of the most visually stunning movies I've ever seen.

It's 1984 as done by Monty Python (quite literally!)

I left out Sy-Fi and fantasy. Instead I went for plausible, near plausible (Logan’s Run a bit of a stretch).

Pair them up.

Fahrenheit 451 -> 1984 -> THX1138
Rollerball -> Soylent Green -> Logan’s Run.

Just an afterthought from somebody else’s post.
