I dont know if it is a bit late for this, but she might like Y Tu Mama Tambien from Mexico with Gael Garcia Bernal and Diego Luna, Cama Adentro from Argentina, Love for Sale (Brazil) and The Orphanage (Spain). They all great movies from Latin America and Spain.

Mesmo tendo que admitir que eu mesmo só recentemente resolvi que talvez valesse a pena assisti-lo, na minha opinião é um filme que está acima da média e bem melhor que alguns mencionados. De qualquer maneira, muito boas as indicações. “O homem que copiava” podia estar nessa lista.

I remember O Quatrilho as the first brazilian movie in the Oscar. Despite two beautiful songs in "Bicho de Sete Cabeças"'s soundtrack, I wouldn't include it in a top list, in my opinion. I have just put "Lisbela e o Prisioneiro" in my list to watch. Roberto, yes, I changed the text. I remember O Quatrilho as the first brazilian movie in the Oscar.

Despite two beautiful songs in “Bicho de Sete Cabeças”’s soundtrack, I wouldn’t include it in a top list, in my opinion.

I have just put “Lisbela e o Prisioneiro” in my list to watch.

The Brazilian movie that lost to Antonia was “Quatrilho“, which wasn’t especially good except for its wonderful locations — my home town ;-)

Two films that might make it to the list would be –

* O Bicho de Sete Cabeças
* Lisbela e o Prisioneiro

The latter is one of the most delicious comedies of all time for me, although its comedy does rely heavily on puns and idioms, so it might be less effective in other languages.

I had the luck to see it in a movie theater along with the director and Raduan Nassar. They both mentioned how difficult is to film a stream of consciousness plot and still keep it understandable by non-readers. I think they did a great job, specially by keeping the poetic feel of the settings & situations. Indeed, Lavoura Arcaica is very faithful to the book (which is one of my all-time favorites).
