The usual history is always told by leftists, with no facts, just what they want you to know. Those who say this movie is totally different from reality are lying. This is the truth. This is what both my grandparents, born in the 1920s and 1930s, used to tell me. Communists are always trying to change the reality to something that fits better their speech. As they are still doing these days.
This is a great movie, because it reflects the reality, because it defys the system and because of the courage of everyone involved, mainly the producers and sponsors.
Watch it and know the truth. Forget what you just think you know about Brazilian history.

It would be hilarious if this film was a satire.
The synopsis says it's an "unbiased analysis", but that's far from the truth. The screenplay is based in lies and misconceptions, and it's shameless ideological propaganda.

Impressive and well produced, it shows a point of view that is usually supressed by mainstream media companies. Worth watching.
It is a very good piece of documentary but is far away from being "unbiased". It has its own bias, a conservative view about the events that shook Brazil amidst Cold War. A perspective that somehow was not very popular among brazilians historians for a myriad of reasons. It is a very good documentary full of unspoken words about that years, lots of silenced testimonials that help us to study and comprehend a war of narratives about straight forward facts. Brazil was near to a civil war and that civil war had to "bad" sides, it was not a classic "good guys" versus "bad ones" as some people like to tell.
1964: O Brasil Entre Armas e Livros can't be called as a Documentary. This is the result of cherry picked facts: there is no storytelling and it also doesn't represent the history. It's a cliche of relativism and denial of the corrupt system maintained by the director's politics idols. There is a sense that there was no wrongdoing in a dictatorship.
For anyone that doesn't live in Brazil, watching this would give you a very incorrect understanding the politics and history.
