This Terry Gilliam movie seems like a companion piece to BRAZIL. Q (Chrstoph Waltz of BIG EYES), the main character, ponders the reason for existence and is
waiting for a phone call which will supply the answer. But when he finally gets the answer-- it's an experiment to see that he'd waste his time waiting for
that answer. You see, he works for a company that has him proving the Zero Theorem, that "the universe ends as nothing, rendering life meaningless". This is
sort of Gilliam's version of "Waiting for Godot". It's an interesting film but overall I thought, "eh."
