Coisa Mais Linda

This is by far the best Netflix Brazilian show ever made, and not because of old Rio or Bossa Nova, but because of how it portraits women struggles in Brazil during those dark times,... their search for freedom and independence!!, how it also talks about racism and how hard were black women lives in domestic services... I've never seen these kind of stories in any Latin American soup opera. I just loved it, I felt so identified with the characters.

This show really charmed me. The visual appearance has a magic to it that goes beyond the beautiful people and the elegance of Old Rio. The music is captivating. The story arises organically from the characters who you actually begin to care about.

But they ruined the whole thing in episode 7. They traded in the charm of the original six episodes for hackneyed plot devices and in-your-face editing. The characters start to be moved around like game pieces instead of the story being derived from them. The ending is horribly cliche.

I don't know why companies choose to ruin good shows so badly, but the first six episodes are well worth the watch.

This show is remarkable. You have to watch it in its native language to capture the true essence of the show. The plot, the scenery, and the music is absolutely incredible and makes one want to travel to Rio.

I just finished the 2nd series and came here to see when it was released. Sad to see it was so recent, because for me that means I have a while to wait for the "if and when" Netflix releases Season 3! I enjoyed this series very much. The music is the focal point around the storyline. The subtitles weren't an issue, by the end of the series you will for sure know some basic portugués words. The series offers a good blend of real-life issues that are relatable such as love, family, dreams, betrayal, politics, discrimination, friendships and happiness.

Its a great serie that shows the Brazilian society on the late 50's through the girls point of view. Has great soundtrack and photography!
