That makes him a very unique individual during the time in which 'Brazil' is set. Tuttle is a revolutionary working to overthrow the bureacracy that has poisoned society and plunged it into mediocrity and stagnation. And Tuttle, above all, has Common Sense. Who says Superheros need "superpowers"? Batman and Robin don't have superpowers. -andy
