"Sangue Corsário" analyzes the conflict and changes the counterculture movement suffered during a decade period and it's all told through the
perspective of two friends: a banker (Roberto Miranda) and a poet (Orlando Parolini, who presents his own poetic works in the movie) walking through the
streets of São Paulo discussing their past, the present times and how all things got chaotic over time.
Well, the movie isn't all that clear since it depends on long moments of poetry that are wildly delivered by Parolini in between cries and
shouts of despair. I didn't find it all too clear or much absorbing and it goes on and on to the point one can get easily lost in the words. Gladly,
the banker helps us in understanding the geniality of the poet by presenting cultural facts from the 1960's where he finds that the poet was a visionary
genius who knew it all back in the day but now we see him as a shattered and hopeless man who is lost in the crazyness of the 1970's. They had a great time in the past but now they can't quite comprehend their current times. It's all lost.
Not of one of Carlos Reichenbach's most brilliant works but it's admirable. There's plenty of qualities, his direction of actors and the
cinematography are very enjoyable and that's pretty much. Some will find more deeper meaningful things than I did. An artistic work destined to few.
6/10.
