Black Orpheus, Brazilian, '59, Portuguese with English subtitles. Timeless Bossa Nova soundtrack by Jobim and Luis Bonfa. The Tragedy of Orpheus and Eurydice updated and played against the Rio Carnival. comments: gorgeous cinematography, a magical film. Dona Flor and Her Two Husbands, Brazilian, '78, Portuguese with English subtitles. After the death of her uninhibited, ne'r-do-well first husband, Dona Flor marries wisely the second time around, but discovers true lust never dies. Comments: Funny and lively. Sonia Braga went on to become an "exotic sex star for nearly a decade". This female viewer found Jose Wilkner irresistable.
