[edit] Removal of "Brazil" reference

I am a huge fan of this Terry Gilliam film - in fact, it is my all time favourite film. I'm saying this because the secretary who is busy transcribing the torture sessions in the film is doing so quite happily. She is not, in any way, a representation of a Martinet. If anything, she is simply a representation of bureaucracy in action - a common thread that runs through Gilliam's films. --One Salient Oversight 29 June 2005 10:41 (UTC)

[edit] Zwarte Piet

The mention of Zwarte Piet -or black peter in english- and the claim that this item is frequently used by this character is incorrect. The actual item Zwarte Piet carries is a birch. An example of the item can be found under the activity; birching --Paddy Fitzgerald 03:48, 30 November 2006 (UTC)
