In fact, this film is originally a series, which was turned into a film, hence the sudden cuts that seem random. This film takes place in the northeast of Brazil (the region where I live) so many of the lines have very specific expressions from here. Unfortunately the subtitles limit this a bit, anyway it can still be fun for those of you watching from outside the country, which is very good. I hope you can react to "Lisbela and the Prisoner" it's with the same actor who plays Chicó, and it's a really cool romance (I love it a lot). Thank you for reacting to our films, it means a lot, sending a lot of love from here in Brazil.

[@KlavierMenn]

Wasnt it based on the gud ole 'auto da barca do inferno?

[@pritymorcega]

@@KlavierMenn probably yes

[@nnetto]

@@KlavierMenn Auto is a specific kind of subgenre of dramatic literature (Portuguese and hispanic literature, in fact). Autos are, in some way, sacramental. The "Auto da Barca do Inferno" is one from three autos of the Magnus opus of Gil Vicent (the trilogy of the ships). Since he was one of the first authors of this subgenre, and he was one of the greatest Portuguese playwright, he definitively was an influence to Ariano Suasuna's "Auto da Compadecida".

[@marcelo125c]

The main bad guy is based on a true outlaw named Lampião. That sparked many legends and became a folk character much like the wild west ones.

Auto (I think it translates to "Act" in English) is a short play with religious morality and often comedy. In this particular one, The Act of the Compassionate, it's about the compassion of Maria

[@arthurbarbosadelira7505]

Nunca vi um filme de comédia que trouxesse tanta filosofia, drama, humor e descontração , tudo junto. Este filme me faz chorar, sobretudo no momento da atuação de Fernanda Montenegro, como Nossa Senhora. Seu compadecimento e compaixão pelos seres humanos, no momento do julgamento de cada um deles, observando os motivos que os fizeram ter pecado, nos traz a dimensão dos erros que o ser humano às vezes é compelido a fazer e eu me junto a ela, nessa compaixão. Não sei porque, mas sempre choro, quando assisto a esta parte do filme.

[@gotasintrospectivas]

Thank you so much for reacting to this movie. It's a really loved piece of popular culture in Brazil. You see, what I think is great about it and why we love so much, it's because it revolves around the resilence of our people, who even when they have so little, they still have joy, and cleverness, and a great, inventive mind. We have a saying here "NASA should study the Brazilian people", because we're so resourceful, you know? And you're actually right, this move is very theatrical and poetic because it was adapted from an Ariano Suassuna's play. Suassuna was one of our most beloved writers, amazing story teller, he was very funny. Every video of him telling a story from his past is a must watch! Again, thank you, this reaction was lovely.

Great reaction, I was waiting for it! I think that calling the dog as 'bitch' is strange, but if that's the exit the subtitle's writer found to make sense on the misunderstanding, that's ok. The body language and the very regional accent of the actors makes the movie funnier to brazilians, it's very relatable, but it's nice that it could be enjoyed without these references. The author (Ariano Suassuna) said in some conferences: "I love liars, not the kind of liars that take advantage of people, but liars that love the art of lying", and you can see that in the stories of Chicó. 😂

[@Madvisionn]

what is the actual translation of the dog?

[@joelgomes1994]

@@Madvisionn It's 'cachorra' (a female dog, where 'cachorro' is the male). Since 'cachorra' can be used as a swearing towards a woman to imply 'bitch', the misunderstanding of the major and the priest happen. It's the same as 'vaca' (cow), that can be used for the same intent.

[@anacarolmsc]

​@@Madvisionnbitch in the sense of female dog is fine, the problem is it's hardly ever used with this purpose anymore 😂

[@JavraK.Z.L]

Wow Não sabia

[@mateusgoncalves292]

Probably some people already told you about the fact that the movie screenplay have been adapted from a play script, written by Ariano Suassuna in 1955, and also that this was not originally shot as a movie, but as a TV Show, produced at 1999. There is a lot of specific jokes or subtle and ironic social criticism you could miss because of the dialect spoke by the characthers that is mostly used at the Northeast region, where I live, here in Brasil, so by translating it to english a lot gets lost, of course. The idea really is to not take it too serious, but there is A LOT of serious things being discussed throughout the movie, such as power relations, how money rules those relations, at most of the time, and how the nobility concept still got deep roots into small cities, as you can see when the priest agrees to bless the bitch when he knows it belongs to the "Major Antonio Moraes" but refuses to do the same for the animal that belongs to the baker and his wife, although they are also rich. He is a "Colonel", which is how we used to call the landowners back in the day when our country abandoned Monarchy and became a Republic. People that really had the political and financial power away from the urban centers (which were pretty small in Brasil at the time), along side the "nobility" status, even though it was not a structured thing with counties and duchies... They used to reinforce their influence by using the exchange of favours or by the use of strength, you already know how, and that way ensuring that his allies or themselves could get the votes to stay on hold of practical political power... That relation and practice is known as "Coronelismo", when Brasil was in fact a Oligarchy Republic, and the "Colonels" were integral part of that Oligarchy. Really happy that you took a bit of your time to watch it and specially happy that you liked it and laughed a lot.

[@lorenaleoncio2106]

this is a true brazilian treasure, so much is lost on the translation, like the regional expressions and the accent, but i'm so happy people from out of here can enjoy it. this is originally a play by a famous brazilian author, turned to a series and then to a movie. it shows part of the culture in the northeast region of brazil, who used to suffer a lot from the drought due to its desert like climate, with a lot of greed and regilisioty, just as anywhere, and Ariano plays it with smart irony and sarcasm. it's kinda old and was filmed long ago but it's truly a masterpiece, every brazilian household stops to watch when it's on tv

[@Rarity01]

Esse filme é tão viagem que o cara se sentiu chapado assistindo 😂😂😂

[@NankitaBR]

This film is based on a play that was made as a sort of "Brazilian northeast spin-off" of an old Portuguese play called "Auto da Barca do Inferno" (Act of the boat of hell) that describes the final judgment of a diverse group of people to decide if each of them is going to heaven or to hell (ergo the final part of this movie). This story takes a lot from Northeastern Brazilian culture, like for example during your reaction you talk a lot about how fast-paced the movie is and about the incredible stories they tell and how the main character is so smart and just makes up things on the spot, and those are some characteristics of some forms of literature and music of the Northeast of Brazil (more specifically "Cordel" style literature and "Repente" style music). Also the bad guys that kill everyone are "cangaceiros" and their lider is "Lampião", and this group of people were very much real. They were like pirates, and their liders, Lampião and Maria Bonita, are like the Bonnie and Clyde of Brazil. And funny story, I actually met Lampião's nephew personally, he is about 90 years old now.

[@thiago.criolo]

3:14 It all happens very quickly because the film is actually the cut of a 4 episodes tv show. The TV series was so successful that they decided to scale it back to release it in theaters. This is the favorite national film of most Brazilians (myself included). The movie is excelent, the tv show is better.

[@MarcelodosSantosFotografia]

It's really complicated for those who don't live or know the history, religiosity, verbal expressions, the culture of the simple man in this region of Brazil and its stereotypes. It is a literary work by a great author (Ariano Suassuna) who portrays the interior of northeastern Brazil in past decades with lightness and poetry. I could use an expression from the corporate world here: "it's an inside joke" - "piada interna". Added to this, there is a theatrical component to the production that turned into a big fun party for good and popular Brazilian actors who had as much fun as we did.

I remember watching the series that became before this movie, and it was even more hilarious. The thing I love the most about this story is that it's not in Rio or São Paulo - Brazil is huge, and there's so much more culture outside these two cities. It portrays the reality of the biggest part of our people: not paradisiac beaches, but poverty, and the only thing that helps us in the struggle of the difficulties: humor, friendship, love. That's why Brazilians are so well known for being so warm and smiling all the time, it's in our blood.

5:26 It seems we have a mistranslation here. Bitch can be translated as female dog (cachorra) in Portuguese, but in Brazil it is also slang for naughty, dishonest woman. When they translate it to bitch/bitchie (cachorra/cachorrinha), if they are referring to the dog in the film, it should be puppy.

This Movie is a cut from a brazilian TV series, that is an adaptation from some Theatric plays and novels, all wrote by Ariano Suassuna. The style and aesthetics, just as the way the novels and plays were writed, are from the Armorial Movement, created to preserve the Medieval Iberic heritage to the northeastean Brazil. That's, really like magic, spacially because it really mixes the divine magic fantasy from Medieval catholic traditions to the actual habits of the interior brazilian people in last century. That's a great movie, but the series is even better, because there is much more happenings, plots and it's even more fun!

[@PablodeAGomes]

By the way, the series has also a fast rithymed edition, but it is a little slower.

Originally this is a Theatre Play writed by Ariano Suassuna. This play was read in literature classes and is one of the greatest we have here. It was adapted as a mini series and lated edited as a film.

Invocou os brasileiros? Aqui estamos

[@VypraXP]

Now imagine growing up watching it on tv. It was chaos and pure fun when we did not have the age or knowledge to understand and even better when we finally understood it.

[@higorhenriquemiranda886]

Eu amei a risadinha dele durante as partes mais hilariantes do filme 😂❤

[@nathaliagomesdesousa8025]

You must know that this story was written by one of the most genius of literature in Brazil in 1955. His name was Ariano Suassuna, writer and philosopher, deceased at 2017 at 84 years old His work was based on his experience and lie as an northeastern of Brazil and he was one of the most brilliant Brazilians who ever lived.

This movie is so loved by brazilians because it's the best portrail of how it is to be brazilian i had ever seen. The latin sacred and the profane thing, the stereotypes, the anthropological concept of a brazilian "jeitinho" on joão grilo character, the classical overacting from the novelas that to me shows that in brazil you need to be exagerated in order to be heard if you are subtle you're not convincing enough, this is pretty much how brazilians see life packed in one movie and every brazilian feel very represented in there. i can say with no fear to be wrong that you can only really feel this movie if you're brazilian

[@seleswarley]

Ótima descrição!

[@ItsMeAndru]

There's a lot of culture packing in this movie that can only make sense to a Brazilian but I'm so glad it remains fun to a foreigner. The author Ariano Suassuna was an incredible storyteller even live.

[@ezzebjorn4562]

Wow, I never thought I'd see Renato Russo reacting to this movie!

[@Madvisionn]

LMAOOO

[@gataflecha]

The film is actually based on a play written by Ariano Suassuna. I love the timing of the jokes. I imagine that for someone who speaks another language it would be really difficult to follow without pausing, but for someone who understands Portuguese this rhythm is wonderful.

[@BrasilianStormagedon]

You should try "Mangue Negro". It is a horror movie, with great practical effects. It really shows the Brazilian knack for making do with what little resources you have

[@IurenRamiro]

Love to see people from other cultures having fun with this piece of chaotic art

O Quatrilho

[@franciscoamorim2077]

Bacurau can be great.

[@LaSalamandraTV]

You got it right, this move was made upon a play. Its inspired by medieval theatre, where the play critiques human sins like greed, lie, glutony by the rich people but forgives the poor people sins because they are just trying to survive.

[@cupcakejack7375]

My guy, the moment i saw this, i FREAKED OUT You found a goof movie to watch. Brazil approved

[@MrAlissonFernandes]

The saddest and the deepest part is realizing why the bandit turned out to be like that and the difficulties João Grilo had to go through in poverty and use his smartness to cheat and survive.

[@AndreLeal-u4k]

Thanks for reacting! Its not because I'm from Nordeste (Northeast), but in my opinion, this is the best Brazilian movie ever! If you like children's movies, I recomend "Menino Maluquinho", 1995, based on the cartoons of Ziraldo, very famous, and "Castelo Ra Tim bum", 1999. Those were some of the best movies of my childhood. We also hace great movies based on real stories: "Elis", one of Brazil's best singers ever, Elis Regina, deceased in 1982, "Gonzaga, de pai para filho", a story about Luis Gonzaga, also singer, "Nise, no coração da loucura", about a psiquiatrist that succeded in humanizing the care of patients with mental disorders with art, "and "Pureza". Oh btw, where are you from? Cute accent 😊

i’m from lebanon

[@diegouzeda2491]

Although you can only fully appreciate all the quirks of the film by being Brazilian, all the themes on "Auto da Compadecida" are universal. Religion, money, hunger, poverty, faith and so on. My late maternal grandparents were amateur actors and they set up this story on the theater when I was 10 years old in the 80´s ( I´m 50 now). Ariano Suassuna was one of the great names of Brazilian culture. You can find several interviews with him in the internet

[@SelmaATocaDaCotoca]

I was really amused by your reaction. 😂😂😂The film that I recommend and is rarely mentioned, O Homem do Futuro (2011), with Wagner Moura, the same actor who played Captain Nascimento in Elite Squad.

[@douglasmiguel3539]

As an Brazilian, i see that you watched the tv movie version which is the shortest version. The Full series movie version is over 2 hours of duration with a lot of scenes and jokes, Including the FIRST Raid On The City of Taperoá.
