Oeste Outra Vez

I never gave much thought to the ideia of a Brazilian western, but once the film presents its logic it makes perfect sense.

In many places, especially in the deeper rural areas of the state, there is a culture of blood violence and neglect that is very similar to the classical western. These are simple places where the law does not reach and does not care to reach.

Strenght is still the law there and seeing this portrayed through this performances, by the speech patterns and with a story that is simple yet very well crafted to the point of conveying exactly what it intends is a great feat from the director.
