Audience Member Brazil keeps experimenting in the 60s and comes out with the best national movie of the decade. It would seem that Marco Bellocchio's shocking look into family alienation and crime caused commotion and inspiration among film-makers and moviewatchers alike. Bressane makes a bizarre and improvisatory show about unusual situational randomness and cinema aesthetics. Unique experiment, worth hunting down for years. 99/100 Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/22/23 Full Review Audience Member Julinho Bressane is celebrated for nothing. Rated 1.5/5 Stars •  Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 01/23/23 Full Review Audience Member Crude, bleak and gloomy, this 1969 movie is almost unknown, its daring themes and atypical structure are so ahead of their time that you wonder why nobody mentions this as one of the most important steps in the history of cinema. I sense this could be called the darkly existentialist Pulp Fiction of bossanova, thirty years before Pulp Fiction. The ending is just emotionally asphixiating and the beginning, well, see the title. Deserves a wider recognition. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/12/23 Full Review Read all reviews
