This is such a great film ! You won't see the beautiful Rio de Janeiro, but the poor side of it . The reality that happens everyday, in the dark side. It's about love and solidarity. It's touching, but there's no silly affectation. Virtuose!
Great cast. It's a notorious sample of Brazilian cinema . A true story about a revolutionary army against military dictatorship at the 60's in Brazil. Bruno Barreto was able to recreate Rio at that time and tells a true story about those terrible days.
This film was based in a Nelson Rodrigues' story. It's about a married woman , who lives in a suburb in Rio de Janeiro . She's not happy and dreams of a sophisticated funeral for herself. Fernanda Montenegro is one of the best ( I can say the best) actresses of Brazil and Nelson Rodrigues one of the best dramatists. A great drama.
