    So innovative, smart, funny, ridiculously underrated
    Extremely smart, funny, and innovative Brazilian film from 1970's, ridiculously underrated. It plays a lot with what is reality and what are just soap opera scenes or TV advertisements. Indeed, there are so many levels of reality and fiction that I may say the movie is really unique and deserves much more attention. The jokes with TV ads and with merchandising are also hilarious and sometimes brilliant, such as those with wax factory businessman. Beautiful and talented Bete Mendes is so charming and shines in the leading role. Loved the sketches with Selma Egrei. Vera Fischer also has a good presence. Numerous nonsense moments make you laugh. Definitely worth being watched.
