So-so chronicle of middle-class life, 18 December 2006
4/10
Author: Marcelo Gilli from Brazil

I heard some good things about this film in a recent poll on the best Brazilian films of all time, and decided to take a chance at it. I was a little disappointed with it. I am not saying that the film doesn't have good things in it. Actually, it is not bad as a snapshot of the typical Brazilian middle-class couple in the mid seventies, exposing its problems, both economical and existential. The problem is that the film lacks freshness in its script, and some characters tend toward caricatures, particularly the mother-in-law; it is also somewhat crudely directed. It is watchable, though, and even occasionally interesting. But it could have used a little more imagination. The cast delivers decent but unremarkable performances.
