UCLA’s Film and TV Archive’s Brazilian Films of the 1950s series starts off with two gems: First there’s Carnaval Atlantida (picture and video), a musical comedy full of samba numbers with bountiful beauties. In this classic, a highbrow production of Helen of Troy gets derailed and reworked into a samba revue. And then there’s O Cangaceiro, about a bandit who falls for the school teacher he kidnaps. This film has been compared to a Hollywood Western film, but with interesting and tragic deviations. The movie won two awards at the Cannes Film Festival in 1953.
Both films will be presented in Portuguese with English subtitles.
