    How is it even *possible* to make a bad movie about Brazilian music?
  

*by J***R on Reviewed in the United States on January 27, 2014*

The main problem, unfortunately, was the music, but let's work out way up to that.This movie struck me as jarringly inauthentic as I was watching it, and my instincts were correct.  The very opening scene shows a guy huddled up in a Finnish blizzard with the wind literally screaming -- on the soundtrack, anyway, although the image on the screen showed a bunch of trees whose branches weren't even twitching, and calm, unruffled water.  And that, unfortunately, typified the movie as a whole -- all these "road movie" scenes that were obviously staged, contrived, and controlled down to the last glittering feather and coconut-shell bra.The director, a hulking blond guy wearing black sunglasses, kept showing up in nearly every scene, for no apparent reason.  We see him skulking around in a market, but he doesn't speak with anyone or buy anything.  We see him leaning against the wall of a bar where a band is playing, arms crossed and showing no apparent enjoyment of the music.  We see a legendary Rio singer getting a shave in a barbershop, and then the camera pulls back to reveal the director in an adjoining chair, also being shaven -- why?  I have no idea what the strategy behind this was, but the net effect was to make him look creepy and stalker-ish.If you stick around to the end and watch the 'Interview with the Director," you learn that the entire purported story of him coming to Brazil to travel around learning about music is complete B.S.  -- the company that financed "Buena Vista Social Club" wanted to make some quick cash with a similar movie about Brazil, but lacking a Ry Cooder they found this guy instead.  The problem is, he'd been living in Brazil for ten years already, and went there to open a bar, not to research the roots of Samba.I could have forgiven all of that if the music were enjoyable.  (And to be fair, there were a couple of enjoyable bits with Marareth Menezas and Seu Jorge.)  But while it might be thrilling to actually be at a festival with 100 teenage boys banging on snare drums, listening to a recording of it for 90 minutes stretches the limits of endurance.  Seriously.  Festivals make for a poor recording environment.  If you want to make a movie about musicians, get a small group of them together in a controlled atmosphere and make a decent recording of them.I could overlook the bogusness of the entire conceit if the music sounded good, and I could overlook the poorly-recorded music if I had actually learned anything about the creative process among Brazilian musicians, but this was a cash deal, hastily and poorly made.

    For those interested in Brazilian music it's a must have!!!
  

*by T***A on Reviewed in the United States on March 9, 2007*

This is a road-movie which covers many places in the huge Brazil where music plays an important role. The director had to choose some places and kinds of music to focus on, because otherwise he would have made Moro no Brasil I, II, III, IV, V, etc.The places and the artists chosen are simply delicious!! The places are very authentic and the artists are incredibly spontaneous!! The movie makes us understand how Brazilian people are so musical, and that's because their own nature!! Music is in their blood and DNA!! Many times the most humble person is capable of creating excellent music without any training, classes or instruction!!!I don't know if this happens in other places, but for sure Brazil is one of the places to research about good music!!!Enjoy!!!

    Necessary for understanding music of Brazil
  

*by R***Y on Reviewed in the United States on March 6, 2011*

This is a revealing and musically interesting survey of the musical origins of modern Brazilian styles more known in North America and Europe. Even though I was familiar with both the Northeast and Rio this was a learning experience that opened my eyes to many things I'd been missing--and a new collection of music. In particular it covers the many musical styles of the Northeast that feed into the better known Samba from Rio. Anyone familiar with the Carnival Samba School parades will begin to recognize specific components after viewing this film. For example, the origin of the heavy percussion section, the bateria, is found in the Northeastern maracatu. That itself has two major styles: maracatu de nação and maracatu rural. The Northeast is particularly rich in these strains and the state of Pernambuco alone has more than a double handful of distinct styles, including the carnival spectacular, very fast frevo. From the far Northeast the film shifts to Bahia and Salvador with samba-reggae and axé that also influenced those parades and modern samba. It wraps up in Rio with samba and more recent funk. Some, as I did, may have a new interest in collecting modern works in the various musical traditions.
