Cidade de Deus (2002)
The best!
City of God is a excellent movie! Fernando Meirelles did a perfect job in the direction, the characters are very touching and real. The story isn't fiction and its the best movie ever made about the war in the Brasilians slams. For the Brasilians, its a movie to open our eyes and see our reality, we really are in a war, but we try to not see. For the foreigners its a movie to show that Brasil isn't only samba, soccer and mulatas. Its violent, but if the reality is like that, its better don't hide!
Memórias Póstumas de Brás Cubas (2001)
Very good and funny!
It´s a very good movie. The director was very faithful with the book "Mémorias Postumas de Brás Cubas", but as the book, the movie is too deep and have a lot of signs that makes the movie be a little non sense to the foreigners and the Brazilians that didnt study at school about the writer.
Reginaldo Faria is perfect playing Brás Cubas, he gives the exactly kind of humor - ironic- that the character demands. The music and the way to pass the time is very dynamic and interesting. The movie can be funny for the most of the people, but for the ones that read the book is just perfect!
