Trivia
In the United States of Brazil then, the Theatrical and Cinematographical Censorship was a section of the Investigation Office under the Directorate of Public Morals and Games of each State's Police Department. Therefore, a film would be imposed different cuts from state to state, and receive different ratings. This film was cut to 53 minutes in the State of Rio de Janeiro, and 51 minutes in the State of São Paulo. In São Paulo, the certificate dated January 27, 1931, forbade the exhibition of this film to "menores e senhorinhas", meaning persons under the age of 21 (Civil Code of 1916) and unmarried ladies. Senhorinhas may be understood as unmarried ladies (in the legal sense) or virgin women (in the moral sense), which adds to the peculiar certificate, and how to apply it at the theatre's door. In practice, doormen and policemen vetoed any woman unaccompanied by her husband.

Silly and Dated Melodramic Romance

Lelita is a wealthy and rebel young woman, who meets the stranger Paulo Morano in a cab, and after an initial resistance, she falls in love with him. Meanwhile, her younger sister Didi tells her that she has an infatuation with a man called Paulo. Lelita believes that Paulo is cheating her with her sister and she breaks with him. Later, she realizes that her sister is dating indeed a homonymous and she committed a mistake with her boyfriend.

"Lábios Sem Beijos" is a very silly and dated melodramatic romance in 2005. However, in 1930, this movie was completely aligned with the latest tendencies, visibly inspired in "Berlin: Die Sinfonie der Großstadt". The narrative begins showing the wonderful city of Rio de Janeiro in 1930, and there many external scenes. The characters are presented as part of a big city. This movie would be filmed by the screenplay writer Adhemar Gonzaga, inclusive some shootings were made by him. But for some unexplained reason, the direction ended in the hands of Humberto Mauro. My vote is six.

Title (Brazil): "Lábios Sme Beijos" ("Lips Without Kisses")
