Two years ago my wife and I enjoyed this movie in San Francisco during the "Festival de Cine Latino". I am aware that some people may not like to "switch" languages during a feature film (Italian / Portuguese), but I didn't mind since the movie reminded me my childhood days when we talked Spanish at home and English outside.
Experienced Brazilian actors who are all new to me performed well. A strong performance by Leticia Spiller (Caterina Padovani / Sofia D'Angelo) and Gabriela Duarte (Patty) who resolves well her struggle to reconcile her career with family and dreams. Also, Paulo Betti (Renato Padovani) lets the viewer develop early feelings to his character.
I am happy this film is finally now on its commercial release - AT MOVIE THEATERS - so more people ... regardless of their Latino or Italian background, will get to see Mr. Quinn's final masterpiece where it was meant to be: on the screen.
