Estreava há 50 anos no Festival de Berlim. Eu posso estar mucho loca, mas essa é uma versão de Yojimbo/Per un pugno di dollari? Estruturalmente é muito parecido, mas com aquele brazilian twist de cinema-sob-a-ditadura-alegorias-do-subdesenvolvimento-shakespeare-style que a gente bem conhece... Enfim, estou com a biografia do Ruy Guerra lançada pela Boitempo há tempos na minha estante, quem sabe depois disso eu finalmente a encare e tire todas as dúvidas sobre o seu cinema. Rip MKO

It's a conquest that claims, on the surface, to be about economics and a cacao plantation, and at heart about personal vendettas and hatred, but ultimately about conquest over God and death.

Herzog called this one of the greatest films, and he's right. It's a huge precursor to his best work, too.

Ruy Guerra crafts a psychedelic and violent story through long shots, a wonderful script and Othon Bastos' tour de force. His character is angry as hell, an almost indestructible man, eager for blood.
