O Jardim Secreto

The acting is not so strong in this movie, yet the sparks between characters are felt.

The cinematography looks great, it's mostly warm and comforting, with the location and sets giving a feeling of nostalgia and a sense that there's a whole lot more to what lies on the surface, i tought that the movie could be longer, but that was not the case.

Personally I think the movie works if you're in an undemanding mood as it's a decent watch.

A great tale of wonder, full of twists and innocence, here we can see the talent of director Rui Constantino that unveils the secrets of the garden, and a curse of immortality behind it.

The girl of this movie makes an awesome job.

8/10.

Great actors and great story, transforms the secret garden into a fable. love was their destiny.

Saw this movie on the channel of Constantino Filmes on you tube, and i must say, i was surprised, it's a lovely fairytale, this movie quite simply, puts the viewer into an imaginative world where an ancient elder has a pact of immortality with a girl, and the pact can only be broken by true love, it's great... You can feel the chemistry between the two actors, one of my favorite scenes is when John waits for her on the top of the garden, and she appears to him magically, behind him, this short has all the ingredients, that made it wonderful, i even love the credits, i loved it the first time I saw it and love it more now. Well worth watching. Recommended...

A young man, tries to uncover the mystery in the secret garden, i loved this short, the ending felt a little rushed, but with that environment, you can feel the magic, the girl is pretty and the boy is really good looking, the elder was great in this also. all in all a great short that brings us, an inner peace, about real love, and what you can do for this love. the soundtrack is beautiful, and this garden is full of birds and peacocks, it really is magic, the special effects were great too. after i saw this short, i was wondering if this could be turned into a franchise, with this garden gathering young people, to love again and feel loved.
