I understand the original law was put in place to help defeat the KKK.

does anyone sell those masks?

What does that have to do with Brazil?

It’s a shot from the end of the movie Brazil.

For protest ‘privacy’, wear this mask; you’ll be a hit.

I think Backlot Props sells these on ebay.

Thanks, started searching there, ended up here- http://www.kropserkel.com/brazil.htm
So besides that, I now have to consider that the wall tiles from Deckard’s apartment in “Bladerunner” are available, and they are also working on a replica of the Maschinenmensch from “Metropolis”.

Sounds like a bonanza site for prop collectors.

Can’t throw a rock where I am w/o hitting someone with ties to the film industry. One of them gave a former colleague here one of the actual maker hooks from Lynch’s “Dune”. Got it hanging on his wall – lucky bastard.

I have worked with some prop makers in our very specific areas of expertise, but my interest is mostly as a film history addict, and collector of interesting objects. The False Maria statue really intrigues me. They sell a 1:1 museum display, but I keep imagining one made from polished cast aluminum or stainless steel, standing in some heroic pose by my koi pond.
I do like the Interrogation baby mask. If I were to wear a mask, that would be better than the Guy Fawkes mask.

Agreed. And the GF masks are so ubiquitous now.
