Review of Elis

Elis (2016)
10/10
Lovely and powerful
24 January 2017
Elis was a strong woman, a woman of attitude, with a lot of opinions who lived a short and intense life. Among all this, she was one of the best singers of Brazil. All this is very well pictured in the film. Her short life, her loves, her fierce, and of course her premature death. I think this film have the power of delight from the young to older ones. The art direction and costume design are perfects! They are really true and convincing. The photography is so well resolved that makes you feel inside the scenes. Of course the sound track is one of the best parts of the film! Very powerful hear the songs with her own voice... About the cast, Andrea Horta is so brilliant as Elis Regina that you really thinks she is real. Her acting is so natural, true and full of energy. Just a particular show! I can say that this movie is a beautiful way to eternalize, once again, this incredible woman! I feel very happy to say this is 100% made in Brazil. Congrats to everyone involved and for the director my gratitude.
